Tweet It is with reasonable trepidation that I ask your opinion on the following: Is multi-colored hair okay? I mean we all know that a number of factors come into play when it comes to deciding what hairstyle you should rock: Culture, occupation, image, even head shape (or even your favorite Skittles flavor).

Women have been wearing it extra long since the 1970s, when posters of the lion-like mane of Farrah Fawcett used to be ...

Tweet It’s always good to get questions that we have out of the way sometimes. These are few that are bugging me and that I had to purge from my mental Rolodex: (1.) How many of you knew Bad Boy singer Cassie’s last name was “Ventura?” (Be honest). (2.) How many of you said “Cassie ...

Tweet Cassie is evidently serious about this half-low, half lion mane thing, huh? Well, we applaud originality, even if it’s a bit unorthodox. source Sources say her barber had a panic attack in mid-cut (jes kiddin’).

Tweet African American studies scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. did an expansive study a few years ago (broadcast repeatedly on PBS) about black Americans’ roots in Africa. It included footage from a number of black luminaries including Maya Angelou, Oprah Winfrey, Tina Turner, Don Cheadle, Chris Rock, etc., and followed their genes to remote African ...

Tweet Comedian Chris Rock said he was apprehensive about bringing his documentary about the black hair experience to the Sundance Film Festival in Utah this week. “Because I think this is the blackest movie ever made,” said Rock, a producer and co-writer on the film. “So I was kind of scared to come to Utah, ...
