If there’s still one thing that America doesn’t seem to understand it’s black hair. Whether it’s locks, cornrows, or braids, black hairstyles have long been stigmatized and misunderstood. People have even lost their jobs and get kicked out of school for these perfectly natural hair styles. So what’s everyone getting wrong? Let Franchesca break it down for you.

#MTV is your destination for the hit series Wild 'N Out, Siesta Key, The Challenge, MTV Floribama Shore, Teen Mom and much more!

I really wanted to start this episode with Solange's. Don'T Touch my Hair, but we couldn't afford the rights. ( upbeat music, ), Okay, so this is a big one.. Today we're debunking some common myths about black hair., Now it'd be almost impossible to encompass every single thing. About black hair in a four minute video, but before we actually get into the myths, let's take a few seconds to cover some of the basics. The thing to realize about most black hair is it's just hair.. It just operates a little differently compared to the hair, texture of other races and ethnicities.. Afro-Textured hair tends to be more tightly coiled and more porous than other textures, more susceptible to dryness and less tolerant to over-manipulation.. Of course, that doesn't mean all black hair is the same. Black hair can come in literally all kinds of shapes, colors and sizes. From kinky to wavy from jet black to blonde the possibilities are endless.. Natural black hair is hair. That'S texture has not been chemically altered with relaxers texturizers or perms. Common natural black hairstyles include afros braids locks, twists bantu knots and cornrows, just to name a few. Got it Good. Onto the myths. Myth number one: black people don't wash their hair. Okay. First to anyone who thinks we don't wash our hair really bruh. No Black people do not have a debilitating fear of water.. When a black girl says she doesn't want to get her hair wet it's just because she doesn't want to mess up her hairdo. Healthy hair. Whether it's white, black or asian should have a good balance of natural oils that our scalps produce. Black hair actually thrives on moisture. With naturally straight hair, the oils are able to travel down the entire hair shaft more easily, which may lead to excess oil, meaning you Might want to wash your hair more often to avoid it feeling greasy., But if you've got kinky or curly hair like most black people, the oils can have some trouble, navigating all those spirals making our hair more prone to dryness.. Therefore, washing too much, especially with shampoos that strip our natural oils is actually counter-intuitive and even unhealthy., But we do wash our hair Myth number two Black hair just doesn't grow.. There'S this huge misconception amongst some black people and non-black people alike, that black hair just doesn't grow.. Listen if you ever see a black girl with especially long hair. Don'T just assume it's a weave and definitely don't ask her if she's mixed with something. As if you have to be mixed to have long, hair., All human hair, no matter race or ethnicity grows at least half an inch a month, so black hair does grow, but Because black hair is so tightly coiled, it could take longer to see the length. Shrinkage is real.. Afro-Textured hair tends to be weaker than straight hair, making it more prone to having the ends break off., But this doesn't mean our hair can't grow long. It just means we have to take extra care of it in order to retain the length.. It'S mine, it's real and you can't touch it. One method for retaining length and keeping black hair healthy is protective styling., Basically keeping our hair under wraps with the use of styles like buns, wigs twists, box-braids, weaves and other forms of extensions., Which brings us to our Next myth. Myth number three Real talk. You only see black women out here, wearin' weaves., Look changing your hair is fun. I do it all the time. Sew-In, weaves and lace-front. Wigs are no different from the clip-in and keratin-bonded extensions. We see many white celebs rock, but somehow weaves have become synonymous with black women.. I mean okay, that's partly because black ladies know how to lay a weave and they've pretty much innovated and perfected the art of the undetectable install, but there's also, this icky connotation where some people demonize especially men, black women, who wear weaves for being fake. Britney Spears, Lauren Conrad Miley Cyrus, Reese Witherspoon John Travolta. These are just a handful of white celebs who have definitely rocked a weave or a lace-front or two., And I shouldn't have to say this, but wearing a weave doesn't make you fake or mean you lack confidence.. It just means you like to play with your personal style. Myth number four Blonde, hair and straightened hair. Are cultural appropriation., Okay, not to go too far into the whole cultural appropriation debate? But let's do a quick primer. Cultural appropriation happens when a majority group takes the cultural practice of a minority group, often without credit, and the minority group continues to be demonized or stigmatized for that same cultural practice., Cultural appropriation, cliff notes, it's not cool when you do It but it's cool when we do it.. If your counter argument for those who call out the co-opting and Colombusing of styles, like cornrows, bantu knots and afros, is but black women dye their hair blonde, here's why that doesn't work. First, there are numerous examples of black people with naturally blonde and even red-hair colors. Secondly, and most honestly importantly, blonde hair is not exclusive to white people. Hell straight hair is not exclusive to white people. And three white people are not being penalized through laws or social norms for having blonde hair.. In fact, having blonde hair is a status symbol for many people., But black hair has been historically stigmatized as unruly unprofessional, unkempt and ugly.. A study published earlier this year found that black women are almost twice as likely to experience social pressures at work to straighten their hair compared to white women, and that white women who make up 38 % of female managers in the work-force are more likely to rate Natural black hair, as'', less beautiful'' and `` less professional'' than smooth hair.. The perception around natural black hair is so negative in fact that up until 2017, the US military actually had a ban against locks and natural hairstyles, including twists cornrows, afros and braids.. The ban known as army regulation 670-1, actually described natural hair as matted and unkempt. Really Tell that to any of these fly. Women. Black hair, because it's synonymous with black people has always been vulnerable to scrutiny, discrimination and co-opting without giving credit.. So yes, it's hair, but for many black people there's also a lot of pride in how we choose to express ourselves through our hair in spite of everything. Thanks for watching we'll see you next time right here on Decoded. (, upbeat, music, ) Bam,

MTV Impact: What It’s Like Growing Up Black in New Orleans | Growing Up Black on VH1: https://youtu.be/x6vpo83soIk

TallDoll: Let's also be clear for everyone. Just because a woman's hair is not long doesnt mean she isnt taking care of it.

fire lioness: Back in the late 1980s a woman sued a major hotel chain for firing her over her natural hair style she won her case..

Jacob Schimp: I can see it people may get mad at her for other videos (not really) but this video literally was speaking facts that all other black people say. She even used the science about black hair. So for those over 500 dislikes already, you either dislike black people hair, or assumed that this lady was gonna “come for you.” Anyways, why would you even be here unless you are trying to learn about black hair

Jasmine Brown: How can Natural hair be unprofessional, smh I swear racist/ prejudice make up anything. esp. w\hen its nice & neat. you said everything perfectly thanks.

Telaya Jackson 2.0: I like this episode so far. All hair types should be embraced.

CROW: I am a white person and I personally LOVE when black women and men take pride and have their natural hair. Black hair is some of the most beautiful hair. I LOVE THEIR HAIR. But I don’t run around touching every black lady or men’s hair because I know I’m not a scalp massager and they don’t want one lol

TAO TAO: I adore Franchesca Ramsey. She’s a great host, and I wish her much prosperity! ❤️

Black Rose: But really, that Francesca has to explain all of this in this day and age. I admire her patience - even when paid for it.

Ciara s: People used to always ask me if I was mixed and I’d always say yep. With black and black

POP !!: the question i HATE the most: *_iS tHaT yOuR rEaL hAiR?_*

Mz Kayla: Lmao seeing all these ignorant people get mad because she spoke up about something majority black women, including me, have to go through or constantly explain, because of common misconceptions. And then act like they know more about my hair than i do. Bye. She couldn't have worded it better. Props to her

ADF MO2: I actually had a (White) woman ask me if I wash my daughter’s hair (which is ALWAYS cute and well kempt) .... I repeated the question to make sure I heard it correctly AND ALSO so she could hear how dumb her question was... when she preceded to repeat her question and then try and elaborate I realized that would actually have to say “yes, I wash my daughter’s hair.”... I understand that I live in an area that isn’t particularly ethnically diverse so I don’t expect that she’d know the ins and outs of black culture but it is pretty liberal here so I suppose I wasn’t expecting that level of ignorance. However to ask if I wash my daughter’s hair—— not HOW I wash it (which wouldn’t made much more sense) but IF I wash it...

Gordon_Liddy 666: Tbh if anything black hair is more professional like some white ppl wake up and just walk out the door with out even brushing there hair unkept who? Plus braids, twists, or other styles are a very organized process.‍♀️‍♀️Idk why ppl say it’s “unkept” or “messy”

Brian Laureus: Absolutely loved this video she hit every point .

Will Coleman: Completely agree with everything except if a white person wants to rock a “traditionally black” hairstyle cause they like it then they can. The problem that should be tackled is how in those cases they’re being praised and when black people wear it they’re considered “ratchet” or “ghetto”. We should be fighting those stigmatizations alone rather than trying to control how people wanna style their hair.

Wicked Amoeba: Thank you! I need to show this to my white friends! I love them but they tend to believe the myths.

Charlie: "It's mine it's real and you can't touch it" period

FallnAngel07: It's mine. It's real and you can't touch it. All of that.

Neeshpeesh123: This was exceptionally written. Great job.

Jessica Duncan: It is absolutely insane that a video needs to address issues surrounding how the general public perceives black hair. She is infinitely more calm than I would ever be talking about this

Cheryl: this is awesome. thank you women thank you for sharing this with those who just don'T UNDERSTAND.

Word Digestion: This is actually very accurate...i have to tell atleast 1 person every 3 weeks not to touch my hair and explain my hair to different people at least once a week... last week was 3 people...1 of which was actually a black man, and 2 white women.... and i live in a very culturally diverse area and i just wear my hair natural, it's not even long it's shoulder length... so for all of you guys who say it's a myth and we are overexxagerating about having to confront these curiosities, please don't try to define someone else's reality if you've never lived it

kirbypopstar: sza has beautiful hair why doesn’t anyone talk about it she’s frickin gorgeous

Chi: This whole video was so beautifully articulated

Be I.: This lady is really pretty

Young Professionals: Thank you for this video it's sad but you have to educate people !

Aracy Ile: When I was little,my mum used to get afro permanents (even though her hair is straight) and I thought it was so cool,so I always asked her to braid my hair and after several days unbraid it to emulate her look,I wanted so bad to have the tiny curls and volume! Now that I've grown up,every time a see a girl(or man) rocking afro hair,my little 5 yo heart gets so joyful!

Amanda H.: Plus blonde hair isn’t a culture

Mochis Mom: 1:39 im glad I watched this.I have transitioning curly hair and I try to wash my hair alot because I thought it helped me keep my curls defined but i guess not. I do tend to wash my hair 4 times a week which is pretty good compared to how much I used to wash it before (at one point I was washing my hair every day )

Chronic Sunshine: 2:03 GIRL I ALMOST SCREAMED WHEN YOU SAID THAT. I AM TIRED OF BEING ASKED WHAT I AM MIXED WITH BECAUSE MY HAIR IS LONG AND HAS LOOSER CURLS

AYOLOVE PHAT: My favourite line in this video : "It's mine. It's real. And, you can't touch it." Classic! Burst into a chuckle right after you said that. Thumbs up ma'am.

Arianaxo: I love having long hair it gives me a LOT more confidence.

labyrinthgirl17: I'm so jealous of people who can style their hair in epic ways. Before I cut my hair super short, it was long, curly, and a massive pain; I had trouble just keeping it in a ponytail. Dx So whenever I see a fabulous hairstyle, I go a bit ga-ga. ^^''

L A: Thank you for this! Really educational videos! I am a white woman and I want to learn more. It is really heartbreaking knowing that all my black brothers and sisters have to go through this, meeting all these stereotypes, ignorant attitudes and overall not being given the same opportunities as your white counterparts... I just can't imagine how it must feel living like this, being put up for all of this hatred... I wish I could do something to just stop it all! I wish we all could be treated as equally worthy on this planet <3 (QUESTION IN THE END OF THIS TEXT FOR BLACK PEOPLE ONLY, AS THESE ARE THE ONES CONCERNED) I want to learn more and I want to stand up for all of you, but as a white person I am sometimes afraid to make my point or raise my voice in these topics. I don't wanna cross any fine lines, come across as a "white saviour", speaking up about something that is not my right to talk about or "steal the attention" from you black people concerned in any way. Because I think that the people concerned should always have the right to speak up. As in this case, I think you black people should have the right to speak for yourselves. Still I want to stand up for you, as you are a group of people in our society exposed to much badness. Because in this society, I was born white, into a rich country, priviliged and I don't wanna spend my life just wasting this privilege, living as if I was the only one on the planet, not using my privilige and voice helping others that are in a worse position than myself) But like I said, I just want you to own your rights, experiencing and discussion and I don't want to come across as "ms nowing it all" as I am not a black person myself and should not have the right to take your voices and use it as if it was my own. So, to the question: What should I do and not do? What is the best way to stand up for you, without crossing these fine lines and maybe make someone else feel bad about themselves? Cause I really don't want to do that <3 /Anna

NitroGenjutsu: Despite the myth my grandmother is mostly black and she has straight grayish blackish hair You'd think it was wool actually

Ayana Tyson: lol I literally was doing my hair while watching this

a y a n c a l i g a c a l: ok, so I’m Somali (which is East African) and I have 3a/2c/3b hair. People like to say I’m mixed and it’s extremely frustrating. They also like to refuse me being natural. It’s great

mariah avelina: I love my school bc everyone has natural hair and rocks it's however they want to without getting judged for it

Jack Dorsey: Once again good stuff! For interracial relationships this is all good info especially when you're sent to the store you know what products to get

Shay45: All Hair Textures Matter. Let's throw texture discrimination away

Matshadi: Myth #2 had me in bondage for years!!! But when it comes to the military men are supposed to their hair short. So whether a black man is wearing a fro, or dreads they would have to at least cut the sides around the head (buzz cut) with short dreads or fro the top. Yes, I know the military will still take issue with that.

Spence Taylor: 2:30 gave me my absolute life ...love this girl sooo much

StevinSto: As a hair stylist I see all textures of hair on all groups of people. I've had women of color with naturally smooth hair and white women with the tightest curls I felt only Moses could get thru. Hair is hair. It's a beautiful expression of humanity. Humanity is like a box of expensive chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get but you know it's gonna be beautiful

Phoenix Shelton: I get furious each and every time someone asks me what I am mixed with whenever I wear my hair all out in its natural curly state. I continuously have to tell them I am fully black, and that there are black girls darker than me, as I am not lightskin and not dark brown either, however, I said my ethnic background should not be what people believes determine my hair. Growing up, so many people would ask to touch my hair as well, and some flat out assumed it was fake.

indigo: I love our hairit’s beautiful

Dara Ury: Genetics has a lot to do with whether or not your hair is straight or curly. This would be the same for any human, I would think.

Laura Fitzpatrick: Ya’ll, when I was a kid, I didn’t know how different black hair was. I thought it was just curly and mostly dark. And all the braids and weaves etc. was just personal style!!

CJLinOHIO: Thank you for this great video. As a white hairdresser, most of my clientele is black and strangely enough I prefer doing my black clients over my white clients. I'm amazed with all the different textures of black hair, many more textures then white.

Aura Love: As a black person..... I find it sad any of this has to be explained to some people at all. It's CLEAR we have the MOST different texture hair than any other race, so it SHOULD be clear our hair has different needs. Yet. There are ignorant people who's minds don't navigate that far in perception/understanding.

Push Mak B: Girl, do you know how beautiful you are, you should coin that modeling bag on the side, I miss having people my own age as models, Miss the Cynthia Bailey, Tyra banks and Naomi Campbell days...you would definitely give Naomi a run for her money with that melanin popping, I love it ❤️❤️❤️ all the way from !!!

vianjelos: Pretty sure 90% of women dont want to get out hair wet on a regular basis because itd a pain to have to wash, dry and re style every day and its bad to wash everyday. When I was little I didnt care if I went to the pool everyday and dunked my whole head in the water...now I second guess it because I know how long the process of getting my hair back to how it was styled before will be. Men dont get to because their hair is short so its not hard to dry or style..also most men dont wipe after peeing so they can keep their opinions to themselves about hair being dirty if it isnt washed everyday.

the Tan Van: I don't know how in hell a workplace/school/where ever, could demand that a black person would have to straighten their hair to look more professional......my hair is super super SUPER straight....like absolutely will NOT hold a curl for any reason whatsoever....i can't imagine someone saying "umm, you're gonna have to curl your hair if you want to work here"......unless I got a perm every month, that would never be a possibilty......and I certainly don't want to saturate myself with chemicals or damage my hair, especially not for someone else's happiness....telling someone they can't wear their hair naturally seems pretty abusive to me....

Kitten 824: Well said

Star Cherry: I would love to have long locs like hers! But long hair can be a pain in the butt to manage

kelly Goodman: My cousin is black and has straight hair I'd love to hear someone tell her she's appropriating white culture.

Darilyn Tyrese: VERY well done!

Mary Pat Johnson: girl your so right thats what ive been trying to tell other poeple

Riana Anaïs: Someone send this to Onmison or whatever the hell his name is

Funny family Kids: Exactlyyyyy everybody at my school be asking am I mixed bc I got long hair‍♀️ like just bc my hair long don’t mean I’m mixed I’m black

Lulu Mai: I actually don't care if someone touches my hair as long as I know or permit them.

Simply Diana: One word: THANKS!

ella francisco: YOU TELL EM SIS

djef ardeur: glad to see that she wears her natural hair while talking about black hair!

Kaitlyn Ellis: 2:04 I swear at least 2 times a week someone ask me one of those questions because I have really long hair

Gummy Glee: Black hair really does grow a lot. There is kinda a hole of like missing hair in the middle of my head. !yes just say someone got a bit lazy taking out their hair extensions and cut from the root. Anyways it's been about 9 months and you can nearly tell it's been cut.

Tolu1994: Thank you ma'am

garyography: I'm white and my hair is graded 3b very curly. I decided to grow it longer, women seem love it but men seem to not care for it at all. I wish more white men and women would embrace their curls. I used to hate my curls, I love them now. And yes you can touch it, as long as you ask and your hands are clean.

Keisha V: 2:03 Okay! And Don't think it's short because we got mad shrinkage.

THE ORIGINAL MAN: I love my Earth camouflaged skin. It blends me with nature. If I'm not beautiful neither is nature...

Turkey Weasel: I can't belive some people think these myths. So rediculous. I may be blonde and white but I too do not want my hair touched and don't wash it daily I don't think it's healthy to remove/strip my natural oils daily. Hair is hair and we all should have the freedom to do anbd style our crowns however we want regardless of skin hues. I find black hair to be georgous in the same ways I find most styles to be amazing. I have hair envy when I see an amazing fro.

Jasmine Johnson: I hate when people ask “what you mixed with” ...‍♀️n I say “nffn” n they say “you gotta be mixed with something” I say black n blacker #ilovemynaturalhair #ilovemyskin

John Davis: Nice and cøvered aløt! Plenty yøuth will find ur general conversation beneficial and very helpful! My Generation 1977-1980; keeps a strøng hold & have even føund much self identity in living up to and out dated negative stereotypes. Common practices that have even derailed my own marriage & family! Cry Nøt b/c I grew ❤️

: I’m from Russia and I obviously never came across this topic until I started following black female artists who often bring up the stuff about lace fronts and just wigs in general. I really had no idea about black women wearing different types of wigs on daily basis. Then things started to change, and I began getting more curious about black people’s hair, how it works, why do black people need to protect their hair, etc. I never had any of these myths in my head though, just was interested in such a deep topic. I didn’t want to seem ignorant or even racist by asking random black people online, although my goal was only to educate myself on this topic. I’m so happy I found this video! Now I have all the questions I had answered and explained brilliantly. Thank you so much for your effort.

pickupyourlaces: I love John, but when you said his name with the weaves I burst out laughing and almost woke up my baby

Original Bukola: Y’all talking bout all the haters in the comment section, but I don’t see them there’s only love in the comments

Elle C: Locs arent a "protective" style and most of our hair doesn't need all this protecting.

Kashe Stiff: Thank goodness the military changed those rules and I can have locs now! And for everyone saying that she’s wrong...she’s actually right. About everything. Blond is not a only white person trait. Prove me wrong and I’ll do my research. Oh. AND DONT TOUCH BLACK PEOPLES HAIR

Audra C: I think this woman is suuuuuper gorgeous.

Kelly Argueta-Hernandez: Honestly my fave black hair style is braids like they're so pretty

EmmaP678: These might be exceptions but it definitely applies to some white women too. I think society just wants straight shiny hair because of media bullshit. My irish friend had the thick course hair you talk about and she had me chemically straighten it for her and yes society norms definitely made her sad to be different as she hated her hair and her freckles. Also I have 2 friends who are sisters with wild ringlets also beautiful but the same thing. One of them was told at work as a receptionist to go to the bathroom and change it when she tried to let her hair natural. Disgusting! Now they both heat straighten it every day and I have not seen my best friends natural hair in years and I mean years! I just want them to be able to be themselves. I know the initial stage of going natural at the beginning is hard until people accept it as the new normal for you. I used to heavily tan my skin to look like my friends as I hated being what I thought looked like a small ghost beside all my tall tanned friends (they all fake tanned) and one day I had enough and started my embrace my true self and never looked back. I now even let my hair dry naturally and sometimes it means I look hippyish and wild but I've learned I am here to serve the world not spend hours in the mirror trying to look like everyone else. I hope one day the afro is embraced worldwide because that is beautiful!!

Elle W: I’m a white woman with really curly and frizzy long hair and I used to straighten it all the time because it was easier to keep tidy for school( now I don’t ) and I have friends with dreads what they have had since they was little and they loved brushing and platting and playing with my hair I don’t know why but I really Believe we all should just embrace our selfs and overs differences because we are all beautiful and no one should judge or hold something so unique against anyone all hairs shapes bights colours of people are beautiful and should only be judged on there character not their appearance or ethnic background

Tiki Flower: “Black hair can be wavy” shows a girl with straightened hair

Marcella CPK: So if you give credit with cornrows will it still be “appropriation”? I see WHY it’s problematic but what she’s essentially saying is there isn’t ever credit. However it’s interesting because i bet if a kardashian were to give said “credit” than there would still be outrage because then it would be outright saying it’s copied from black people. So it’s as if you can never win. I get why its problematic but what we should do is not demonize black hair not necessarily say no white girl can wear braids. ESPECIALLY when they come back from Jamaica or Cancun with those microbraids because while it may be embarrassing you are disrupting a locals coin who LOVES braiding drunk white girls hair on the beach to make $$. Honestly the only ones who really give a crap are Americans.....

Mrs.Potato Head: Thanks for this video!

relaxwithme: Keep rocking it you beautiful people.

Thatidiotwithabox: Matted? The black people I know have hair that looks pretty neat

Tameka Prosper: Didn't get a job due to " The only thing that's the issue is that... The people heart don't expect to see someone like you well.. Not in a bad way your hair when they come into check into a hotel." smh

Ryann Brazil: I’m going to send this to every single person who asks to touch my hair.

Dyamanti Zaal: We all need to be educated on our black hair, we do so much to our hair what is bad and we do not even know...

noo: I hear people saying I got straight hair because of my white dad when my mom has wavy hair and my dad has curly hair.

TheTiki1111: Thank you gorgeous sista for Educating all of the ignorant ( and perhaps just the curious) people out there! I hope they ALL tune in!!

Faith Ishola: I related to this so much!!

Cookies and cream: I know one time at soccer it was raining really bad and pretty much all of the girls with all natural hair ran to get hoodies and my old white teacher said we need to educate him on black girl hair

amourxmari: My hair is long and I get asked all the time “is that your real hair?” “Are you mixed?” “Does your mother have long hair?” One time someone even assumed I was half Indian

Kathryn Harra: this channel deserves more subscribersss

old man jake: This is the time I will actually give you credit with this video

Glo Romy: Well done! And surprised to see myself in the video! Lol

Westles: Omg I haaaate the argument that blonde hair or straightened hair is equivalent to cultural appropriation. I hate the concept of cultural appropriation, but even someone who doesn’t support the idea can see that when people throw that argument around it shows a fundamental lack of understanding of black culture which is the reason ‘cultural appropriation’ exists in the first place.

Lil Mas: My hair grows 3 inches every 2 months.
