First menthols and now this.
Ok so at least I'm not the only one about to say some crazy shit about this. This shit is not about to fly with the sistas. There will be a reckoning brought on by the black women of America. I'm so internally frustrated by this and Ive only used the products 2-3 times in my adolescence. Is nobody talking to black people at all before making decisions that directly affect us?!?
Sidenote: s-curl texturizer was a stupid decision and I should have had the option to begin locking my hair as a preteen instead.
Big edit: ...that shit is linked to causing cancer?!? Yeah let's wrap this shit up and find a new formula or something.
I'm glad you edited because this shit has formaldehyde, yikes. If you want straight hair, cool. But corporations need to stop selling shit that they know causes cancer and if the market is there I guarantee they can come up with something safer. And if not then I guess society is going to have to accept black women having curly hair. The horror...
Black women have what????
...I mean most black people have curly hair. Unless we flat iron it or put a relaxer/texturizer in our hair.
Edit: hello, I'm the idiot who just missed the joke due to sleep depravation. I'm going to bed.
I just want to say that this comment was a rollercoaster of emotions and I enjoyed the ride.
