Natural hair movement

The Natural Hair Movement is a social and cultural effort that encourages people, especially those of African descent, to embrace their natural hair textures without resorting to chemical straightening or harmful treatments. It promotes pride in one's unique hair type and challenges beauty standards that favor Eurocentric norms. The movement gained popularity through social media, advocacy, and community events, empowering individuals to celebrate their authentic appearances. Overall, it advocates self-acceptance, cultural identity, and resistance against societal pressures to conform to certain beauty ideals.
