I'm not racist, just wondering since it's a big deal that they have a few TV stations and awards shows.

Well, no... Their hair is different than other race's hair, so why shouldn't they be allowed to advertise hair care products designed specially for their hair type?

No, it isn't racist because only certain products work on our hair. White people can use just about anything to keep their hair in good shape.

No, 95% of hair care products are made for white hair. We had a babysitter that was white use some of our products while watching our kid. She called crying asking what was in the shampoo and conditioner bottles. We simply explained to her how our hair was different. She is 1 white person that understands that it is a little harder to be black for several reasons. Many stores not in predom black areas don't sell our products. I grew dreads because there was no one in the city that I lived that could cut my hair right. Every black in the city had this problem. Some drive 75 miles each way to the nearest person, others did like me.

I see that you don't watch TV all that much to be criticizing on black folk and their hair products. Would you use a black folk hair product on your hair ? No, nor would they use a white folk hair product on theirs. So, no, it's not racist. Their hair is far different than ours.

No, its understandable. If white people can advertise young white models in these hair ads then why can't black people also? They should have more ethnicitys presenting the hair ads though.

No it isn't racist. Black people have different hair issues and require different care. It's perfectly normal and understandable. Good luck. 2D

No because some black products cannot be used on caucasian hair.

No, it's not. Ultimately black people have hair like no other group of people so if you want to target people with kinky hair you are essentially targeting black people

no because all commercials on tv now or for white people and they know that black people can't use the majority of their hair products because they have different texture hair

No because whites have their own as well. Different types of hair need different types of products.
