Feb 10THE HAIR APPARENT
One of my dearest friends, Phuong, recently mentioned to me that she wanted what she called an “Asian Afro.” When I saw this editorial in the March issue of Marie Claire I immediately thought of her request. Phuong, I think you could totally rock this!
As much as I love these photos and applaud Marie Claire’s effort to use more diverse women in their pages, I cannot help but reflect on the absence of curls in popular women’s magazines. When curls do appear, they’re almost treated as a novelty and rarely shown on people who are born with naturally curly hair.
I’d love to hear your thoughts.
