More black women need to start their own beauty supply stores, salons and product lines.

There are several documentaries on the hair industry that explain why ownership is dominated by Asians. Most of the real hair sold is Asian hair and so Asian companies market their products in Asian catalogs. Basically, if you can't read Chinese or Japanese then you MUST PARTNER with an Asian person to start the business. But why would they partner with you when they can do it without you and all really have to do is hire a couple black people work work for them and the other MILLION black people will buy their products. That's why blacks don't own many, if any, beauty supply stores that sell hair.

It’s exhausting after all these years black people still haven’t monopolised an industry. I mean how are we not the majority shareholders of BlackHair care. We’re forever teaching the world through KZread and blogs how to actually look after the toughest hair type as they take our natural hair concoctions and resell our ideas back to us at ridiculous prices. We have an ever growing demand to maintain our natural Afro hair in a world than demonises the appearance of it and we are still paying a high price for it and in no way are we ever going to profit from it. Society still ushers black woman to conform to straighter styles with wig and weaves becoming the norm. Products to take care of what’s underneath are increasing in price every year. Every black woman regardless of length, curl type, or profession should refuse to purchase anything that isn’t 100% natural, beneficial or produced from a legitimate black owned business. How are we yet again leaving the fate our tresses in another countries hands, they don’t share our hair type or social concerns yet are growing richer from it!

Ive learnt to spend my money where black women are featured. You often find huge companies like She's Moisture don't cater to their market's price point, in terms of general cost of living. So why should I spend more when the company doenst take into account certain societal environmental factors. For example that many , black African women have now become bread winners for entire families. Those are personal realities and play a part in purchasing decisions. I have relaxed hair and usethr J Strickland company's products like Blue Magic etc...because their price point is relevant to my reality. Also I live in South Africa and many of uslook up to African American women for hair inspo, they seem to have the hair game on lock,in terms of trends etc. Nex Sheen Arganics is also another black owned company, they launched in Africa a few years ago, I travel to the US often and find they theit price point is very similar. My point is , buy from people who care about YOUR economic reality as a black woman.while I would love to support my fave celebs like Taraji P and Kenya Moore 's lines of hair products, I feel they are so out of touch with reality. So I'll stick to my Nex Sheen, Blue Magic and Africa's Pride.....

I spend less than $50 dollars a year on my natural hair! I spend my money on GOOD FOOD! Travelling 4 times a year, going to the theatre and several outings as I fancy, Building wonderful memories with my loved ones!

D. O. That is me. Once a week I start with hot oil treatment either avocado or olive oil mixture (coconut oil drys out my hair) then I shampoo (Camille rose shampoo is what I am using now) along with deep conditioning (I add henna to my deep conditioner) (also Camille rose, I like that it is black owned) no heat when I deep condition though but I do leave it in over night. Then I put my hair in twist with African Shea butter (from Amazon) I leave it in twist for a week... once a month I also dust my end any spit ends, knots I can’t detangle, or fairy knots get cut. Trying to see if I can make it to tailbone. I all honesty it took almost a year to find what worked for me. So experiment and learn what your hair likes. I have had my ups and downs during it but I can honestly say I love my hair. I hope this helped, positive vibes!!

D. O. Sorry that was so long but I feel all that helps with breakage. Honestly I never left my hair get dry..... the Shea butter twist keeps my hair moisturized until wash day.

I'm talking leave in and twisting cream. A tangle teezer is 20 bucks and i don't get a new one yearly.. The whole point, in my mind of going natural is to reduce cost and dependency on others to work with and protect what you have naturally. At least in my view. I trim my own ends even- but understand those who don't feel confident with diy. eta I did add an oil blend (Melanin brand) to this routine and a bottle of essential lavender for my scalp which lasts for years because I only use a drop to a bottle of spray water as I now live in a dryer/wintery state.

@Mike Gee you might not have any hair and put that small carpet on your head called a toupee.

I probably spend less than $100.00 a year on my semi freeform locs. Sulfate free shampoo, natural hot oil treatments.

JWI while i agree with your comment in theory.. in reality your comment fails to include nor factor in the many people with alopecia and other health related issues that contribute to why a person is incapable of growing their own hair (at a specific time within their life). I am not a hair stylist, but i am a healthcare professional. I have many patients of every race that have experienced hair loss for various health related reasons (anemia. Vit d deficiency, auto immune disorders, post surgery meds can damage hair, traumatic Stress i have seen my patients lose clumps of hair over stress, post bariatric surgery, burn victims, etc etc)..they wear pieces, wigs, weaves etc to cope with the physical changes their bodies are going through..there is so much more to it than "just grow your own hair"

its not that simple I had to cut my hair due to some medical problems. I was able to braid my hair without extentions but now I can't and my natural hair is to short to style so I need them.

Great video and so informative!! Thanks for highlighting the true cost of hair care for some people within the Black community!

They crazy. I ain’t never spent that amount of money on my hair. But I also don’t go to hair salons and I don’t wear weaves and wigs. I moisture mainly with aloe juice and glycerin. Seven bucks a gallon at Walmart and twenty bucks a gallon on amazon respectively. There is no need for all that.

Hi Heather, Do you purchase the aloe juice and glycerin separately then mix together and apply?

King Pins yes but I mix it in the aloe juice.

The problem with most of the haircare products in stores is the mass amounts of chemicals contained in them. Using products like aloe vera gel, flaxseed gel, or coconut oil is safer and cheaper or at least we shouldn't buy products that use harsh chemicals like parabans. That being said at least we don't put sodium hydroxide on our hair anymore (well some still do).

Couldn't agree more. Buying natural oils and butters in bulk saves a lot of money and you know exactly what you're putting in your hair.

i don't break the bank with my hair routine...

Olivia is me. If my hair has been in a protective style, I generally start off with a clarifyer, and then continue on with my wash routine. But my wash routine is usually shampoo, deep condition, regular conditioner, leave in conditioner, and olive oil if I plan on keep it in it's natural state, pressing grease if I'm gonna flat iron it.
