How important is your hair to you? Very! When and why did you start locing? 1991 in Paris while touring. I had a live performance on Paris TV, and thought this would be a great time to start. I'm from the North Bronx, and I discovered an African Hair Care Salon in Paris owned by a Brother from Mount Vernon. Mount Vernon folks are neighbors to the North Bronx. I called his shop and made an appointment to start locing. Why- I was touring Internationally at that time in my life for months/years at a time. Previous to locs I was wearing my hair in a uptown Fade. I couldn't keep the Fade in proper form while touring so often. The only place I could arrange hair cuts were at Military Bases, via the African Americans on Base. This was taking a toll on my time/interest in new Countries and Cities, so I decided to loc my hair.
Have you ever been stereotyped? Off course ! How important is a woman's hair to you? Very! Do you prefer relaxed, weave or natural hair? Natural Are you single/married/dating? If you're dating or married is she natural? Involved with a Natural Hair Woman. What is more important in a woman: that her hair looks good, smells good or feels good? All 3 are very important...however I will settle for clean. Do you think you should see a woman's real hair before marrying her? No, assuming you love someone enough for Marriage, hair shouldn't matter. Now what is really the most important thing for you look for in a woman (besides beautiful hair of course)? Intelligence....Academic/Mental stimulation is compulsory for interest.
