Again, TSA? Afro searched for explosives
No words…..except, it’s happened again. Back in July, another woman with natural hair was searched by TSA. Yet again, we have a woman with natural “big” hair being stopped for suspicion of explosives, etc in an airport. Click HERE for the video Why has this happened again?

Another Newport Advertisement
So…here we go again. Newport news has yet another ad in Essence with a natural hair model. Like the last ad, the couple is not shown smoking. Again, I wonder… Is this advertisement negative? And if so, can an ad become negative because of the type of product being advertised? On another random note, I was in Cancun recently …Read more »

Weight Watchers Online
Although I can’t say I love love love the Weight Watchers commercials with Jennifer Hudson in them, I do like some of the other commercials for Weight Watchers. The commercials are a little extra for me. But I guess they serve their purpose. I especially love the other commercials featuring the model with the beautiful locs. I’ve seen both a …Read more »

CitiBank Advertisement
Many of the advertisements that I find with women who have natural hair actually appear as a pop-up advertisement on other websites. I’ve found ads while listening to Pandora, surfing the internet, and in Yahoo Mail. The advertisement I present to you today appeared as a pop-up ad in my Yahoo Mail. It features a black couple, and details CitiMortgage’s …Read more »

I Choose Smirnoff Raspberry Commercial
Surprisingly, I’ve only seen a few commercials with natural hair models/actors that were for liquor. I saw this commercial the other day and found it on YouTube. It’s a Smirnoff commercial with a woman dancing with natural hair (she appears at :22). No, she’s not a main actor/model, but her hair caught my eye. I had to add this. Her …Read more »

Hillshire Farms “Anything” Commercial
When I first started this blog, I began by finding lots of print/online advertisements. Since then, I’ve found many YouTube videos and other types of commercials online to post to my blog. Take Hillshire Farms, for example. Months ago, I found a print ad for Hillshire Farms online while listening to Pandora. Just a few days ago, a visitor to …Read more »

NY Times Magazine and Esperanza Spalding
Finally, a great example of how to represent natural hair in the media! The NY Times magazine featured Esperanza Spalding on the cover, rocking a massive afro. The accompanying photo spread is called Nightie Aphrodites: How to pull off a heartbreakingly romantic evening gown? Just Use Your Head. It features celebrities (i.e. Corrinne Bailey Rae, Solange Knowles, and Les Nubians) …Read more »
Summer’s Eve Second Campaign Advertisement
Earlier, I told you about a Summer’s Eve campaign featuring three talking vaginas (one black, one Latina, and one White). It was part of their new “Hail to the V” campaign. Many agree that this advertisement missed the mark. Fast forward. Summer’s Eve has a new campaign featuring different civilizations and, you guessed it: an actor with natural hair. Here’s …Read more »
