A Site For People Who Value Independent Black Women Who Need Equality Without Sameness, along with Interdependence, Reciprocation, and Respect From Those That Love Them In Order To Thrive.... Black American Women have always been feminists. It's just that they were called "having an attitude" instead of "feminists"

CORNROWS FOR DUMMIES Because I Can't Be The Only One
I've given up on hair typing but I might be a nano-4A.
I know my hair is practically zero porosity. And I know what moisturized hair feels like as opposed to oily hair. I also know my hair adores light doses indirect heat under a hooded dryer - chills the curl out just enough
I can single braid my hair
I can Senegalese twist
I can twist-out
I can braid out
I can flat twist (somewhat)
I can flat iron my hair from time to time - after a difficult blow drying session.
But...but..but...
My name is Debbie. I am black. And I cannot cornrow.
I'm reading on the long hair care forum that this tutorial is idiot proof (see link below). Well...we're gonna see 'cause I can't do can't do it. Not even a little bit. Never ever could. It's embarrassing. It's like somebody is going to come along and take away my subway pass into blackness.
I can't be alone. So click on the link below if you need to. I won't tell a soul.
