I’m absolutely loving this series on Black Men’s hair care!

I’ll be honest, I’ve never really thought too much of the mental and emotional impact hair loss has for our Black men. I understood that it’s hard to let go, but I don’t think I truly thought about those effects. Too many times I’ve seen someone’s hairline receding at a rapid rate, giving themselves a 5.5-Head, and thought to myself “Geez why doesn’t he just let it go?” But I guess it’s really not that easy to digest or fully accept, and I do regret being so insensitive even though I never said anything aloud.

I really feel for the last man’s story. That must have been so hard-hitting, barely entering your 20s and already having to make the decision to do away with the hair.
