People are bitching about the Princess of the USA's hair



Gabby Douglas is proudly representing her country in the Olympics. She's poised under pressure, performing gravity-defying athletic feats in front of an international audience. She's 16 and the second female African American U.S. gymnast to ever make the team. But instead of lauding her achievements, some people are slamming her for... not getting her hair done.

( stupid tweets under the cutCollapse )

ffs, I'm JEALOUS that her hair is thick and coarse. I'm mixed race, and I damaged the shit out of my hair by abusing it with chemicals, and I wish it was like that.

Oh well, she'll be having the last laugh when, in ten years, the weave abusers have no hair left and she has her thick hair.

Real talk though, she is ridiculously talented and hard working, why are we focusing on her hair?

srsly, all it had to be was out of her face. I can't believe she's achieved something this amazing and people choose to talk about, of all things, her hair. smh.

And on the subject of chemicals, the damage really sucks, I feel you bb. idk if you'll find this helpful, but a pre-shampoo scalp massage with warm oil has really helped me with chemical damage. It's a pain in the ass, but my hair does feel thicker now.

i can't stand girls who obsess over other people's hair, clothes, looks, etc.. why does it matter? just worry about what you look like and leave the rest of humanity alone.

treebraids 3rd-Aug-2012 10:23 am (UTC)
I'm black, I've been doing hair since I was 9. I've style hair as a side job and even I do not know what is wrong with her hair.

lmaoooo I feel like this is such an ONTD thing to do.
theladyflash 2nd-Aug-2012 10:49 pm (UTC)
Rude. She's cute, beautiful as hell..
steph_monster 2nd-Aug-2012 10:49 pm (UTC)
Let's be real for a second: Gabby spends most of her day in the gym training for her sport. Where is she going to find the time to get her hair done on a routine basis? Believe it or not, there are things more important than hair. Jfc it doesn't even look bad. She has it pinned back like she needs to for her sport, and she's probably sweating a lot.

People need to stop projecting their own standards of beauty/insecurities on this young woman and give her the credit she deserves. She did the black community proud today, nitpicking about her appearance is petty.
_quietriot_ 2nd-Aug-2012 10:56 pm (UTC)
Agreed. Especially:

Exactly.
winegums 3rd-Aug-2012 12:19 am (UTC)
ia. Seriously, she's not some celeb on a red carpet, she was there to actually perform. It's as if people have forgotten that or something.
ryais 2nd-Aug-2012 10:49 pm (UTC)
I'm sure she's crying into her Olympic gold medals about this
insane_sweetie 2nd-Aug-2012 10:49 pm (UTC)
this reminds me of when I was a synchronized swimmer. for competitions, we were required to have our hair slicked back into identical buns with Knox gelatin. (it actually hardens to a very solid consistency in hair.)

people do need to stop with Gabby's hair though. she looks fine. and she's too busy being a fierce gymnast to worry about these idiots' opinions on her hair anyway.
zigzagzap 2nd-Aug-2012 10:50 pm (UTC)
She is so adorable. Haters have cankles.

She's seriously pretty, too. IDGI at all.
