Where I'm from, there are no or very few black people. No particular reason I don't suppose, other than they don't like the hollers of West Virginia...and after watching "Wrong Turn" I can see why...LOL...

Anyway...back to the subject at hand. I had never really know black people until I moved here to Albama. I worked with a couple of very nice black ladies at the bank I used to work at. One day, out of sheer curiousity I asked one of them how they got there hair done like that and how it stayed without frizzing out and things of that nature. She laughed at me and proceeded to tell me all about how much time goes into their hair and how they do this and that with it and how they keep it from frizzing up when in teeny tiny micro braids. Until that time I never had any idea how much different their hair characteristics were from people of other races.
