I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

Okay, I keep having this arguement with my mom she thinks that wearing your hair straight down looks dumb I think it looks better she thinks that if im gunna wear my hair down I gotta flip the ends, and I think it looks stupid and I hate it. I'm getting sick of wearing my hair like that and i just want to wear it straight down like a normal person but she says that african americans arent supposed to wear their hair straight down but I dont agree. she wont listen to me and I cant stand wearing my hair like that. What do you think, who do you think is right, what should I do? Thankss :]



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

I never had arguement with my mother on how I wore my hair. We always yelled about other stuff. heh



As for who is right and wrong. Your Both right, but it sounds like your both wrong in the way your coming at each other..



Hair is too be worn in whatever way makes You feel good as a person, male or female. If that means shaving it bald, sticking it straight up, or out to the side like your in a wind tunnel then do it. There is no set appropriate hair style for one race or another. That would be like me saying all white girls have to have long hair straight curled under, and black girls have to afros 2 feet tall, and all hispanics have to that high crown to brush the ceiling, all egyptians have to have it rolled like Princess Leih, all indians have to have pigtail braids down to their knee's with feathers...Gets kind of stupid and racist quick doesn't it?



Come at your mom from a different angle. Instead of "It's Stupid that way." try "I feel stupid. I don't want to feel stupid." be sure to come at her calmly expressing You feeling about the hair style you want. ( How it makes you feel, why you feel this way, ect.) And, again, calmly express how the hair style she wants you to way makes you feel.



(I hope I wasn't offensive in my answer. If you've taken offense to anything I've said, my deepest apologies. That wasn't not my intention.)

sit and say mom this is how i want my hair and that it i wnat to wer MY hair they way i want it it's MY hair !!!

Who's hair is it? YOURS so tell her you don't give her orders how to wear her hair, so she should lay off.



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

Don't argue with her, but also think about it, you don't have to conform to what other African Americans are doing with their hair. Have you thought of curling it under? That's very cute and classy. Having your hair straight somedays works, but flip it out one day and see what it looks like. No guy wants a girl that looks like all the others!



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

i can't believe that you and your mom had an arguement about whether to wear your hair up or down.....you guys must have no problems....wow....



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

You can wear your hair how ever you want.... just because you are African American doesn't mean you should limit yourself hairstyle wise. I have seen all kinds of styles on African Americans... so do your thing and find a good style you feel comfortable with.



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

I think you should wear your hair however you want to. Tell her that how SHE wants you to wear your hair, isnt who you are....and thats obviously not what you want. I think straight hair on african americans looks cute and so does flipped....so both of you are right, but in this case, you should be able to wear your hair however you want. If she still doesnt understand just say:



"mom i understand that you want me to wear my hair that way, but that doesnt express who I am, it expresses who YOU are and i want my friends to see me for who i am." I know that sounds a lil cheesy or watever but it will probably work :-) good luck

I think it partly depends on the shape of your face, and partly on the texture of your hair. For the most part, if you hair is softer then flipping the ends up looks pretty because it sort of floats. If you hair is stiffer (which yours probably is) I don't think it looks as good. Just my opinion, of course. It's YOUR hair - you shouldn't be forced to wear it a way that doesn't make you feel your best! ....and I don't believe that any race has a way they are "supposed" to wear their hair.



You don't say how old you are, but talk to her and explain how you feel. A mom should be willing to listen!



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

i think you should wear your hair whatever way makes you happy!!!



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

Sit her down.



Tell her that it's your hair.



And you hate the way she wants you to wear it.



Be completely honest with her.



Maybe you can find a medium.



It's your hair.



But it's also your mom.



Tell her why you think it's stupid.



But don't be to blunt about it.



Goodluck.

I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

It's YOUR hair, do whatever you want with it! And being African American has nothing to do with how you should wear your hair!! My mom doesn't like when I wear my hair straight, but I wear it like that anyway. She didn't like how I did my eyeliner, but I wore it like that anyway. You need to stand up to her, say "it's MY hair and I'm going to do whatever I want with it!"



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

ask you mom if you can compromise.. see if you can wear it your way for a week.. and then go back if she or you don't like it..



If not, yea it's your hair, but who's house.. and who makes the rules in the house.



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

OK well you must be a teenager. I have 2 of them and a third is now 21. You dont want to argue with your mom if you want your way. The best way to about it is to put it the form of a suggestion. Let her know you here her and her ideas but then ask her "what do you think if I do my hair.......



You have to remember you are growing up and getting older you mom is loosing her little baby, sometimes it is hard for a parent to cope with this, I know I have been there and I am there again. So try not to be rebel against your mom. Believe me things will go a lot better



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

i think ur right but i dont know how u can convince ur mom that. its your hair u should be able to do whatever u want with it



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

i am a seventies baby, mom white...dad black...



And to be honest....white people were the ones who flip the ends up...ask your mom....at what time did black women start wearing the flip...after they straightened their hair...to have the white look....or were they able to flip it ...when it was in a fro?



I am by no means making jokes..i am from both worlds...so i have a good intake on both sides... Thinking about it...I have a few pics...of my [white] mom...with flips.....but my black aunties....have fros.....

I am African American. I wear my hair straight all the time. You can't say that African Americans don't wear their hair a certain way. You can wear you hair anyway you want. Now since you are a minor and still live with your mom then you have to follow her rules...but to certain extent. Don't argue with your mom, but sit down and try talking to her.Be respectful. Explain to her that you really don't like wearing your hair that way and say why. Try to make sure that you have specific reasons why. Don't just say because it looks stupid. Then ask her to talk to you and explain what it is that she likes about the flipped hair and what she doesn't like about straight hair. See if you and your mom can come to mutual agreement. Instead of wearing it bone straight or flipped try wearing body curls or a wrap. This way your hair has some turn and curl to it, but it's not flipped up or straight. The body girls of course will be bigger curls (this is how I wear my hair). To get this style I wash and set my hair. I roll my hair on rods anywhere between 2-4 inches in diameter or width. Then I brush or comb the curls to get them to look teh way I want. The wrap will allow you have straight hair with a slight turn. The style kind of colds to your face. Mothers can be difficult. My mom get doesn't like they way my hair looks all the time, but she doesn't try to control what I do to my hair. I pay for hair to be done every week, and I am no longer a minor. Take good car of your hair. Try to stay away from a lot of heat products like blow dryers and curling irons. The wash and roller set really is the health choice. And make sure to use a good moisturizing conditioner. I wash my hair once a week, and I use a deep moisturizing conditioner every two weeks. If you can find one get a silk or sating pillow case to sleep on this. This will help keep your hair healthy and looking good too. And always keep your ends trimmed and healthy. I love the way my hair looks and I get compliments on it every day. I have very thick coarse jet black hair.

ok how you wear you hair is up to you there is no different is race some africans wear a certain style because it is convient for them

Curling your hair under is a little old school. How old are you? This may be one of those issues where your Mom hates your hair, but oh well.



I am having this arguement with my mom on how I do my hair, what should I do?

Little curls on the end is cute. ( for 6 year olds.) If your going to wear your hair down don't curl the ends. You'll look like a baby. You are totally right. Who would agree with your mom? I just think your mom probably doesn't understand that your grown up and not a little kid. You should talk to your mom and tell her your never going to wear your hair down with curls. And that your not a little kid anymore. This way is better than getting in a huge fight. She probably wants you to be a little kid forever. My parents want that too. Its cuz they don't want to see you grow up so fast and just leave. Go talk to ur mom. She will understand.
