I can't remember who sent this to me but there's this brotha on YouTube who talks about his locs. He has a number of videos and he talks about styles, maintenance and the political issues surrounding a Black man wearing locs.
And he's only 17. Loves it!
In one video he is answering questions and he goes,
QUESTION: How can I get my hair to be un-frizzy?
His response: "People, it's a natural process. You gotta go through it.
It will be frizzy. Aight?"
His response: "People, it's a natural process. You gotta go through it.

LOL....he ain't lyin'!! I wish someone would have kicked it to me that real when I first started loc'ing.
It's a hard knock life being a Black man. But add that to being a Black man who sports locs. It can't be easy because of the judgments people are always making on my men. That MOST Black men are in jail. Or gang bangin'. Or not being supportive husbands and wives. Whatev.
Show the young brotha some love. Rock on, zayloc23!
And before I go....
I loooooove Cousin Jeff. This man is professional, afro-conscious AND sportin' locs? And those
*faints*
...what do y'all think about Black men with locs and how the world views them?
