Enter The No Fear Zone "Black Hair Love"

Welcome to Enter The No Fear Zone as Host Garry Boast talks about Black Hair Love. DivaDoll speaks to this issue and adds depth to the conversation using her personal experience, and growing up while pressing her hair and using chemicals.

We talk about the mental effects of hair and what it all means when you factor in what society thinks about female black hair. We also look at the mentality of black men and what they think as well. 

The truth is everyone has their thoughts, but no thoughts are more important than that of the African American female, it is she who is impacted by this social construct.
