ARE BLACK WOMEN OBESE BECAUSE OF THEIR STRAIGHT HAIR??? | NONSTOPRADIO | RADIO THE RAHIM
Is straight hair partly to blame for obesity among African-American women?
Fox Chicago news anchor Robin Robinson had an interesting report Wednesday night on Fox News at 9 regarding the fact that many African-American women do not exercise regularly —– because of their hair. More to the point, the fact that their chemically-straightened hair doesn’t allow them the convenience of a workout/shower/go to work process that the rest of us take for granted.
This is a fascinating an eye-opening report, (especially about health issues, and not just the issues about all the dangers of chemical relaxers). The video is here for your convenience, and it really gives us a LOT to think about. Robinson herself is sporting a “natural” curl to her otherwise “anchorwoman ‘do”…. see what you think. Apparently there is a study that supports Robinson’s claims. What do you think ladies? Let us know.

Its not just straight hair its hair in general. Black women of all ages, with all different types of hair, have asked my how I stay and in shape and told me that they don’t go to the gym as often as they would like or work out much at all because they don’t know what to do with their hair during and after. It’s never personally stopped me, but I understand their dilemma. Though I think the real question women should be asking them selves is: who wants to see pretty hair on someone who is sloppy or physically unkempt?
