I have been there. It will take some time but it will stop . Just ignore it and continue to flourish your creative independence. It is hard to be different and it shows strength to stand up to it. Not everyone wants to be from the same mold. Stand out!

Don't listen to people. They usually start saying that because they are jealous. Women straighten, curl and find other ways to change their hair to compliment and accentuate their features. Black, white, Asian, Latino women all do it, not to change who they are as people but to improve or simply change their appearance. Famous people do it so why shouldn't you. Jennifer Lopez straightens her hair, Angela Basset straightens her hair, are they trying to be something they're not.. NO... Honey you are not a sell out, changing your hair does not change who you are....It however may make you more fabulous...

Well thats a little immature for people to say. I know a lot of the black girls here on campus all straighten their hair. I wouldnt pay any attention to them. Do what makes you happy.

Don't worry about these losers. You do what makes you happy. You don't have to explain yourself to them about how and what you do with your hair. Their just jealous because you probably look a lot prettier than you did before now that your hair is straight. These people are haters and I wouldn't let them worry me. You know who you are and that's all that matters. I don't think just because you wanted to have your hair straight makes you something your not. Let these people know that it doesn't matter what their opinion is. You do what you want to do and if they have a problem then that's just what it is, THEIR PROBLEM, not yours.

jealousy. tell them to mind their own business. My neighbour's kids used to come to me after they had their hair washed, because I had more patience with untangling the mass of frizz they had then they or their parents did. They got theirs straightened as soon s they were able to pay for it themselves( daddy said they were cop outs, too, but he was old fashioned)

No, you are not a sell out. It's your hair, you are allowed to style it any way you like.
