TK Wonder and Cipriana Quann hated their hair once upon a time. “There was no creative freedom for me,” Cipriana says. I’ve almost come to hate my hair and see it as an obstacle.”
After a while, they stopped straightening their curls because they loved them. Nikisha Brunson and they created the Urban Bush Babes blog together, explaining it as follows: People now look askance at those who wear Afros and do nothing with their natural hair. Our goal was to break down negative stereotypes about natural hair.”
As of now, the quirky sisters have been featured in photo shoots for ASOS, Gap, and fashion magazines. Cipriana prepared answers to the girls’ questions in advance since they are asked the same questions every day. Is all this your own hair? Yes, of course.
Is it difficult to keep your head straight when you’re carrying them? Wow, they must be heavy. There is a common misconception that Afro curls are heavy. Contrary to popular belief, the opposite is true. In the New York heat, I can definitely feel global warming, but our hair is actually as light as a feather. Therefore, the answer is no.
Are your dreadlocks braided? No, I don’t. Wouldn’t it be nice if you braided? It’s great to have dreadlocks, but I prefer my hair to look natural. One of my favorite questions is: “Why don’t you wear the same hairstyle as your sister? ” That’s my right, obviously, I love my hair the way it is now, otherwise I would have chosen a different hairstyle long ago. I reply, “It’s just my choice.” Joking aside, I prefer not only aesthetics, but also the different condition of our hair.
