Women should embrace their natural African hair identity, say afro hair enthusiasts

African hair (afro hair), the speaker said, was lovely and adaptable in shape, and because it was a gift, it was inexpensive.Afro hair lover Mrs. Jacquelyn Uchechi has urged women to embrace their natural African hair as a part of who they are because it represents "the youthfulness and beauty of woman to a man strength."At a round table discussion on appreciating the "Beauty of the African Hair" and the publication of the book "My Afro-Kinky Hair; My Root and Heritage" on Friday night in Abuja, Uchechi offered the suggestion. She claimed that the goal of the book "My Afro-Kinky Hair" was to highlight the attractiveness of African natural hair, or "Afro hair," which accentuated our beauty, boosted our confidence, and displayed our individuality. The convener added that the celebration of our African hair, skin colour, fashion, our commitments, strength, passion, resilience, culture and our own kind of undeniable beauty, reconnected us to our roots and African heritage. According to her, the African hair texture is believed to be genetic, because the texture is nearly absent from other ethnic groups and universal among Africans, passed down from one generation to another.
