Why is the site limited to tightly coiled, highly textured Black hair?
The reason it is limited to this hairtype is because we have found that it is the hairtype most feared and vilified in our community. It’s the only hairtype we can’t stay natural with for long with if we “fear the ‘fro.”. Napptural hair is the type labeled “bad”, nappy hair that needs to be “fixed.” This perception needs to change. We need to stop being afraid of our hair. We need to learn about our natural hair. We need to see natural hair worn on women who have embraced it. And the only way we can do that is to showcase our natural hair on its own merit without seeing it compared with other hairtypes. • Nappturality is all about acceptance of our hairtype and not carrying false expectations of what it can or can’t be or do. • It’s not about taking the easy road and conforming. • It’s not about destroying your hair through continual straightening. • It’s about accepting yourself and your hair as it was intended to be. That’s what NAPPTURALITY is.
