What If First Lady Michelle Obama Big Chopped and Rocked a TWA

First Lady Michelle Obama’s stylist, Frederic Fekkai has said her beautiful, silken hair is all-natural and relaxer-free.  I think it’s wonderful that she’s a natural sister.  She’s beautiful and her hair is beautiful. But as I think about her hair I wonder….

What if Michelle Obama decided to show her natural curls? What if she did the big chop? What if she decided to rock a TWA hairstyle?

First off, my opinion is that her hair would be fierce in its naturally curly state. And, I think a TWA would make her already polished appearance shine. But…

What would the different “establishments” have to say about it?

Would the republicans, democrats, tea partiers and the Obama haters take issue with her rocking not only a natural hair style but a TWA hairstyle? Would they spew hairisms and call her character into question? Would a teeny weeny afro be viewed as an acceptable hairstyle for an active First lady?

What would the natural hair naysayers have to say about her hair? Would they love it or hate it? Would they say she is setting us back? Would they call her hair inappropriate? Would they see her as unprofessional?

Would those hooked on the creamy crack (relaxers) suddenly decide to take the natural hair plunge and do the big chop? Would weave-lovers decide to cut their haircare budgets and ditch the weave?

What would the natural hair community have to say? I’m pretty confident that the natural hair community would accept it…love it…want to get it. But, I can’t speak for everyone.

What do you think? How do you think First Lady Michelle Obama would look rockin’ a TWA hairstyle? Do you her teeny weeny afro would start a trend? Would it start a controversy? Would her natural curls be a bad look for President Obama’s presidential campaign?

I woke up this morning feeling like playing with my makeup. But what's a cute face without cute hair. So, I decided to do a little wash n go style with a side part. For my wash n go, I used water, ecostyler gel argan oil and cantu shea butter leave in conditioner. After co-washing my hair, I massaged about a quarter size of leave-in conditioner into my hair. Using too much can cause hair to flake when your teeny weeny afro dries. Once the leave-in conditioner was massaged into my hair well, I added about forefinger scoop full of ecostyler. I apply it like I would lotion by sharing the scoop on both hands then distributing it into my hair. Again, I want to use just enough to make my curls pop. My hair is fine and wavy in the top, so oversaturating it with gel will weigh it down too much, resulting in flat hair in the crown area. Next, I took a rattail comb and parted in slightly. I wear my parts on the left. I applied just a smidge of ecostyler to my edges to s...
