Most black women do not wear their hair in its natural state. They don’t want it to be coarse and hard to comb – commonly called ‘nappy.’ Instead, they relax it with chemicals, or even press it with a hot comb, to make it straight. Then it must be blow-dried, and curled with a curling iron. These procedures are very time-consuming to do or have done, and can be expensive if performed in a beauty shop. So in order to maintain them as long as possible, they don’t want to wet the hair. (Wetting it makes it ‘go back’ to its natural state.) Therefore, washing the hair daily is impractical. I wear my hair in a short natural, and so I can wash it daily, but generally do it every other day.
