Easy solution with the “anyone can have this hair type”

It isn’t uncommon for Black people or POC to have straight natural hair. It isn’t rare either, it’s quite common. Straight hair isn’t only exclusive to white people. However,

I agree with this statement. People (majority of the time it is non-POC or non-Black people) that like to point out how white people have “afro-textured” hair or as @/YourMom pointed out they like to show examples “Napoleon Dynamite” who has a very obvious different texture that is nowhere close to being afro-textured. We don’t have that many hairstyles and when we do get hairstyles- people like to fight us on who can wear this and how it doesn’t belong to just one group, which is very frustrating.

It might be annoying to see a lot of Black authors go hard for these hairstyles and features, but it is more annoying to see a lot of ignorant comments about these features.
