problems with hair products

 

I have a problem with the advertisments / ads of black people’s hair product especailly when it comes to the relaxing products.  I have noticed that they always show a black girl who has a weave on instead of  having their original hair or they will be a mixed race girl as a face of this certain brand/ product.

If you look at the people’s hair who are the face of these hair product you will find out that they actually have a weave on or they are multiracial (mixed race). while these products are targeted to black people or maybe I should say they products are mainly used by black people.

They (advertisers) are actually decieving us as their target audience because if when we relax our hair  we don’t get  the same results as they have advertised. Is there no way that they can actually take a pure black girl and use her real hair as a demostration of how  a persons hair will look like istead of  puttting on a girl with a weave or a multiracial or mixed race person.  

I don’t have a problem with multiracial people nor with the weave, I just don’t like it when we (  target audence) are decieved.  We dont get straight and flabby hair as the ones they have outside the box.

"so called friend advice"

http://arablady.blogspot.com/2010/08/she-thinks-i-would-steal-her-boyfriend.html

Sometime in life we meet people we think we will spend the rest of our lives with. But then things happen people change,  love dies and you end up loosing that special someone due to these factors.   The things main thing that makes people break up is when your so called friend gets invoved in your relationship, He/ she starts feeding you with bull.

You would thing that she/ he has your best interest at heart while she is just plain jealous of your relationship. It is wise sometimes not to listen to what people are telling you about your  boyfriend or girl friend because they might be lying. People are really snakes out side, they are two faces bitches and they cant be trusted.  Never involve a third person to your relationship even if you trust them and they have been friends with you since childhood because you dont actually know what they thinking in thier dirty minds…

Best advice is to know who your real friends are!

the women of 1956
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Women's_Day

On 9 August 1956, over 20,000 women  all races  marched to the  Union Building in Pretoria to protest against the pass laws.The women sang a protest song Wathint'Abafazi Wathint'imbokodo! (Now you have touched the women, you have struck a rock.). Since 9 August 1994, the day has been remembered annually and is known as "Women's Day" in  South Africa.

The lyrics of the song that women sang:
Wathint' abafazi, Strijdom!
wathint' abafazi,
wathint' imbokodo,
uza kufa!

[When] you strike the women,
you strike a rock,
you will be crushed [you will die]!

The women of 1956.

Spend at least 67 minutes once  a month and  dedicate it to Tata Mandela.  He is the father of all nation and a  legend. He is well respected world wide, we should be proud as South African to have such a man in our soil. Because of uTata  and other freedom fighters ,we can now go any way and be free, we have human rights and freedom of speech.

Make everyday a Madiba Day...
