    Good Hair

    by mizcola

    This movie was funny yet very informative. With anything that makes money there is deception...had anyone ever wondered where all that expensive "100% Indian Hair" come from? Go see the movie!

    THIS MOVIE IS VERY EDUCATIONAL AND IT DEFINITELY HAS ITS FUNNY MOMENTS. THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT WHAT IT TAKES TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR HAIR AND THEN THERE ARE THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT GO TO THE EXTREME AND FEEL THAT IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR HAIR, THAN TAKE CARE OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. THIS IS A FILM THAT NEEDS TO BE VIEWED BY ALL INDIVIDUALS.

    Very Informative!

    by lanelle_delina

    I found this documentary to be funny, yet well researched. It is a must see for EVERYONE struggling with poor self image. It really makes light of hair weaves and how women are spending so much money into something so mundane. I was surprised to learn the source of weaves. Yuck! Made me really think about where all that money could be going to improve our lives, eg. eating healthier food, paying for secular education or money towards home ownership. I have never worn a weave and never will! Glad this documentary highlighted the foolishness of vanity. Who better to do it than Chris Rock!
