Tyra Banks real hair is center of her show


Tyra Banks kicked off this season of her talk show by revealing her real hair . Banks is known for all of the wonderful, (and some not so wonderful) wigs she has always been seen in but today she decided to ditch it all and go o-natural.

Why is this such a big deal you may ask? Most people have never even seen Tyra without a wig on.

Some speculate that ever since her, friend of the show, Chris Rock sent her a copy of his documentary “ Good Hair ”, which documents why black women feel the need (or simply want) to relax their hair and/or wear a weave, as well as trying to find out were the term good hair came from, Tyra may have had a change of heart about her beauty standards.

She showed a clip from the documentry on a show she did about “ Good Hair ” were black women discussed what they considered good hair and their reasons for relaxing (chemically straightening) their hair.

But I think what really could have gotten to Tyra was the little children on that show. One woman was actually relaxing her 3 year olds hair. This woman said they would not make it for kids if it was dangerous, failing to realize that her toddler had not yet entered what is called childhood.

Another little girl that was biracial stated that people that don’t have good hair are “low class”, a term her mother had been called as a child for having African textured hair.

All of these things together might have struck a note with Tyra, or may not of had anything at all to do with her decision. Either way I say, “bring it girl”, because I still wish I could rock a fro (my hair just lays there like a semi-Diana Ross).
