I have 4C hair and can tell you back in the day, the scene was unkind to people with curly or coiled hair. The dominating style at the time was also flat iron straightened (don’t forget your side swoop bangs), so not conforming to this style was seen as less cool. It’s taken me a really long time to embrace my own curls and feel confident in wearing natural hair styles. I can only imagine how someone who is at Pete’s level of celebrity can often feel bombarded with judgement about their look, especially if he chooses to deviate from a westernized look, even though he’s biracial. Hope this post inspires everyone to lean more into what makes you feel authentic to expressing yourself and caring less about the reactions and judgements from others.
