Combing African textured hair is as simple as using a wide tooth comb and wetting the hair with either water or a spray on conditioner. I have no problems combing and maintaining my hair. I use the ‘twist’ method of setting it. Just twist, untwist, run my fingers through it, and it’s so beautiful…I certainly get my share of compliments. The strange and wonderful thing is that the majority of compliments come from young brothas…its common to hear, ‘Love your hair, Ma…’ coming from them…sistas and old school dudes just stare, as if they don’t get the statement I’m making. The statement is, three years ago, I came full circle as a Black woman, and have totally accepted all the gifts given to me…including my hair.
