“Daddy, how come I don’t have good hair?”
This was the question that inspired actor Chris Rock to release the documentary Good Hair. The documentary takes a deeper look into the hair product industry aimed at African-American women and how these woman are constantly being pressured to have “good hair.”
Rock interviews major industry women including artist Eve, actress Raven and Nia Long. While all women have different reasons for their personal haircare, Rock strives to answer the tougher questions as to why women spend thousands of dollars for hair pieces and what are the bigger costs behind that hair.
