I love listening to Native American people talk about their culture. It's a different way of talking about ancestors. It's a way of speaking that seems to shorten the amount of time between ancestors and present-day. For instance, "we used to use buckskin" makes it sound like this is something she did regularly in her lifetime. She speaks as though her ancestors are standing next to her. Which, they probably are. I love it. It's a beautiful way of speaking about your history.

There's a scholar who explains this worldview saying "in western culture we focus on how big and far things are while many non western cultures especially native Indians talk about things as if it's right in front of you."

I'm Peruvian and these images bring to mind many fond memories of my grandmother brushing my hair and putting it in different kinds of braid styles every morning. My grandmother also had braids until she was around 80 and starting losing her hair due to old age. Peruvian society still discriminates against these hairstyles. You can't go to a corporate job interview in the capital of Lima wearing traditional braids, for example. I wish we'd embrace the beauty of these wonderful traditions without needing white American or European individuals to embrace these before it's "cool" for young people wear them again as it happened with other indigenous cultural artifacts such as the chuyo and coca leafs.

I'm from Germany. As a girl I wanted to grow my hair long, but my mother didn't allow it. It always was cut when it reached my shoulders. In my teens in the 80s I had to wear a perm. When I turned 21 I cut my hair very short out of protest. My mother was apalled... Now at 52 I let my hair grow and it will be never cut again!

Native people have long black hair. It is a sign of power and strength; and - I would say - good-looks

Thank you for sharing

My grandmother never even trimmed her hair and she always wore it in a bun. Her her if left down would drag along the floor if she was sitting in a rocking chair. Her hair was beautiful like your.

Super cool vid! Thanks! I wish we could've also seen some homemade hair slav

I think these styles started out for practical purposes, as long hair can get tangled in things, but the people turned it into a beautiful way of expressing themselves.

I love Native American people there’s something about the peacefulness And they’re culture and I feel as if I lived a past life as a native everytime I see or watch the culture of the natives, I feel as if I’m transported to way back when. It’s such a daja vu feeling. Thank you all for showing your hair styles and more so thank you for keeping the native culture alive. 🙏💓👌

Peaceful? You never been to ceremony or sat with everyone at a fire telling jokes. We aren't that peaceful once we start slapping people as we laugh 😂

I really like the Native American and I would love to visit the Museum of Indian Arts of Culture in Santa Fe to learn more about them and their tribes.

It's interesting how various tribes do this similar bun. I'm Shawnee and Wyandot, and we also tie our hair up similar to this. That and native hair can seem to develop a mind of its own left down. Mine is seemingly all over my bathroom. lol

Thank you for the beauty.

The 2nd girl has beautiful hair! And it’s so long. I have native blood but I never really knew native Americans from a long time ago had things to retain moisture and oils to put in their hair I always thought they just had hair and not a whole routine of keeping their hair so dark thick and long. 💕

This is amazingly cool. And cute too. XD. She’s so very cute. And the second pair of people are so genuine, the woman is so focused and so affectionate in her movements. I think it’s so beautiful. And I see what the first girl meant about guy hair being less feminine and poofy. With more wraps. Ps they all have hair TO DIE FOR!! its so long and healthy. Craziness.

My friend who lives on the Rez here in nm told me one time that the long hair represents the wisdom an individual carries. I’m not sure if that’s true for all native tribes but I always thought that was really beautiful.

Native Americans have such beautiful hair. 👌💕

So are we just gonna ignore the fact that the woman at 2:40 said she was in her 30’s! I seriously thought the whole time she was a teenaged girl, she’s so beautiful. 😧🥺

✨Also, everyone in this video has gorgeous hair & I think the Native American people are so beautiful & amazing.✨

Beautiful.

Wonderful people sharing their beliefs and gentle ways of living together. If I could go back in time I would want to know my Blackfoot and Cherokee family, because my European family is easy to know more about their ways. So sad that many cultures are wiped away by the conquers in different lands.

About 14 years ago my son attended Arapahoe high in Colorado he’s 1/2 Pablo from my husband side his family is Pablo from New Mexico I my self is Apache but anyways the School told my son if he like his hair more then baseball and told him he had to cut it in order to play baseball so my son cut it they did get in trouble by the Arapahoe nation found out about it after all the school was sponsored by them lol

That's how I fix my hair too cuz I'm from San Felipe Pueblo too and like he said we don't let other ppl touch our hair like me I only let my mom my sister my ante and my girlfriend touch my hair and I have long hair too

Henz Carl Tupas Tupas native hair is sacred and is used as a representation of life and power. letting people who aren’t very close to you touch your hair is like infringing upon something sacred for you
