Her hair is gorgeous. As a black woman, i want to point out her hair is nowhere close to a black child’s hair. I was expecting 4a-4c hair texture for them to try and deal with.
@@seoyoonhan3912 thats not even true she looks 2c or 2b tbh there are not curls or coils just waves also i dont think there is a 4y i think its 4a, 4b, 4c
Ikr, but I actually asked a Chinese friend today. Apparently her understand is "not straight=curly" . Which I will say is weird because she herself has wavy hair like that little girl, in fact many Asians do.
@bunnyrabi 100% . Many southeast Asians have that exact hair texture and type. This whole concept was very weird and creepily, crossing boundaries of respect for diversity Creeped me out
I have this same hair texture and it’s nowhere near desirable. Wearing my hair down hurts and the only thing that keeps it from becoming a big frizzy dreadlock is braids and twists. One wayward curl and boom, the strangling process has to start all over again. If I’m lucky, I can go 3 weeks before my next wash and detangle but since my luck is bad it’s basically every 3 days.
NO SHE IS NOT BIRACIAL. Asia is a landmass not a race. she is black Asian* like black American or black European. real history she looks MORE Korean than they do. IN KOREAN NOW they have koreans with 4c hair and brown skin: just like the originals in that land. South Korea is just politically adopted white is right from America. ................ if you dont believe me LOOK UP any photo of 1900s Seoul Korea. she not biracial you see any blue eyes on them...? they already have black heritage. you put them 2 in the sun for 3 hours : they will be darker than that little girl. so they avoid the sun. again they are very aware why they dont have lighter color hair. Their grandparents probably look like her. The volume of bleaching skin product in Korea tells you light skin is not the default. Why would they sell Flat irons if bone straight hair is the default.? 👍🏿✨South Korea like to pretend their ancestors did not look like this little girl; and they dont worship black deities or have black superstition { } but if you dig dip.. its all BLACK.
It’s cuz their standard is straight hair, so anything other than straight is new to them. It’s actually kinda funny because there are Koreans with hair that’s curlier than the little girl’s 😅.
@@etsunara. Yes, I understand curly hair is not the norm there, which is fine. (However I bet if a white person went to west Africa where curly hair is the norm, they would know how to do straight hair but okay) The problem is them acting like this is the most difficult and kinkiest hair to exist when it's wavy at best. I've seen k-drama characters with more curl in their hair than hers.
I think it’s because they aren’t as diverse so they have never actually seen hair that’s curly. Even Asian wigs majority are straight cuts, layers, and bobs so there not use to working on other types of hair or have learned how to. Even in America and Europe when u go to salons a lot of times they can’t work with other types of hair because they weren’t taught that or given wigs to try. That’s just one of my guesses as to why they may be struggling because even myself I wouldn’t know how to work with curly hair because I’ve never had it so I never learned. All hair types have different ways of taking care of it and use different techniques. I think them worrying if it hurts when they brush is because you have to put a little more pressure when brushing out hair and there not use to it but even when I brush my friends hair who have maybe more straight and layered hair I always worry if I’m hurting them. But for the most part I don’t think it’s out of bad intentions I just think a lot of Asians lack in how to do things that may be more common sense to other country’s that are more diverse or have more practice. Not only in hair but the way things come out sometimes seem offensive to use but for them there bot intentionally trying to come off as disrespectful r rude they probably have just never actually had practice.
bye, they're literally not used to seeing wavy hair like that in Korea so of course it would be a little hard for them to style it. Its a learning experience its not like you get something the instant you try it
Social media: trains people to not do PROBLEMATIC behaviors ... of the negative things people want to say about social media; they cant say they did not know better. short story: he knows not to run-up and touch black people hair.
How to survive with curly hair tips: 1)Never comb your hair when it is dry 2)Use big combs 3) Use the right hair care products in the right way (+less shampoo more conditioner) 4) Love your hair no matter what society's beauty standards say
@@brennathecatlover4360 shampoo dries your hair out, that goes for anyone. But with thick or curly hair you want to focus on moisture and repair. Less shampoo= less work on moisture and repair. It'll still clean your hair. But conditioner is way more important.
@@TR-im2bs that's why my mom buys more conditioner than shampoo, and my shampoo doesn't even foam up much. (I use dark and lovely, it's actually pretty good if you ask me)
“Can I touch you?” that was so wholesome, how he asked. They should've put a spray bottle with water or detangling spray in the table. The producers should know you can't comb wavy/curly hair dry; you have to wet it a bit.
She is a little doll but as a black girl with 4a/4b hair, her hair was literally closer to their own hair texture/type than it could ever be classified as “black” so it should’ve been easy for them
@@Ri57490 Still sweet, because the whole point of the video was for them to put up her hair, so they were supposed to do that and for him to still ask was really sweet.
Honestly the lady did pretty good for not having any products to moisturize and smooth her hair. It also seemed like she cared and tried to make her comfortable which I liked.
The little girl SEEMS like a good sport. For me as a kid, anytime someone made it known they thought my hair as a “challenge,” I’d get self conscience. Especially when it was coming from someone who had a totally different texture or was a different race. Made me feel like I was super odd or strange to them🤷🏼♀️ (I too am biracial)
I was waiting for someone to say this! A lot of comments are like “they should’ve gotten a kid with curlier hair” or “they’re doing such a good job cause it’s hard for them!” But on both sides she’s being treated like an object 😐 just a biracial opinion 🤷🏾♀️
The bare minimum idc if not many people do it if we act like it's not the bare minimum some people expect brownie points or cookies idk for it it's the bare minimum. Y'all praising him for this is crazy...
@@Shinylikeadahlia Umm no. Unfortunately ppl don't respect black ppl personal space and touch or hair or skin without permission, so it's rare to find ppl like him who asks respectfully and be understanding.
Honestly I feel bad for this girl. As a mixed kid, being treated like a spectacle your whole life really changes the way you view yourself. I hope the girl has black role models in her life; I hope she knows that she’s not “too much to handle” :(
As a mixed woman, I don't really see the problem. They are clearly in awe of her features. It happens with unambiguous blacks too. Asians and white people are just in awe black features because it's unique in their perspective. Thats why in foreign countries, people want to take photos or touch our skin. Or even why white people like to touch afros. It can be a big confidence boost when you think about it that way.
I kinda wished I had someone do my hair like its supposed to, when I was a kid. My hair isn't gravity defying, but it poofs up into an umbrella shape. Don't get wrong, I'm Indian so it was multiple types of braids/styles. But the wrong shampoos, towel drying(dries instantly), n the struggle to comb through did a number. Thats what they're used to, n I didn't even its a wrong way. During uni, I skipped drying my hair. Just patted on top n ran to classes, n WOW it looked gorgeous! so yea..I understood that even though my hair doesn't look like the generic "curly" hair, it will never be straight. My hair is exactly like this lil girl's in the video btw. I just do those kinda "imagines" where lil me got her hair treated right, n told its not just tangly its curly. That shampoo still makes my skin crawl n my family still uses a version of it without an issue.
It's pissing me off how many people are commenting she is not black. She is black and she is Asian. Brings me back to the people that told me I'm not Asian because I'm mixed. Pisses me off that us mixed people are often put into this place of you don't belong in any culture you belong in. I start telling people "You are disrespecting my Grandmother." Cause they sure af would not tell her shes not Asian.
Has a half korean half black woman her hair looks super easy to deal with. I myself have curls I think it would have been a challenge. I would love to see that!
Her hair texture is a lot similar to theirs so it should be easy to handle for them. They should've gotten someone with more curls and kinks to make it more authentic
I'm laughing so hard at the panic and apologies. I'm happy you gave them an easier texture to try, I don't think they would have been able to handle 4c hair.
Well, I suppose it's a good thing they didn't get an actually black child's hair, they would probably have tangled it up and ruined it if they can't even handle wavy hair
I’m sick of people doing anything for views. Even if it means trying to strip an entire people of their dignity!!! 😮 Black people don’t want to be a part of your racist circus 🤡 sideshow!!! Let us gawk and exaggerate about your slant eye 👁️ stick hair Asian children. Then they will cry 😢 racism.😏
Baby she is beginner level. She is obviously half Korean like me, but unlike me, she inherited more of the Korean hair type. Actually I've seen Korean people with curlier hair than her. My mom, my uncle and my grandfather are examples of Korean people who have curly hair that looks permed but isn't. I'm half Black but i inherited more of the African hair texture thank God because if i didn't I'd have nothing left after my chronic illness and these harsh medications hit me! So now instead of being a 3c 4a my hair has relaxed and got a bit thinner and now I'm a 3b 3c. Her hair is very easy to care for. But one thing i find, is that Black hair is daunting at first glance but if you don't process it and keep it it well moisturized and protected, our hair is a lot more easier and less painful than people think. I remember my nephew was traumatized from getting his hair combed because his mom wasn't familiar with his hair, as she's Samoan, and her hair was like this young girl, do when the boy would come to me he would act up before i even touched him, but once he realized i wasn't hurting him, he wouldn't let his mama touch his hair, and would come to me, diaper and all. So i had to teach her about keeping him in plats or just cutting his hair short if she can't keep up with his long hair. And that's all he needed some moisturizer and good detangling brush and some simple plays to keep his hair from tangling. And that's how I keep my hair! Like i did when I was a little girl and i only style it when it's a special occasion.
❤ love this story. So glad you were there for that boy and to demonstrate for his mom exactly what he needed. I was a teacher for years.. I've had so many parents with biracial chomdten who didn't bother to learn how to care for their child's hair It really cab be traumatizing and give them a poor sense of self when the parent doesn't bonfwith them a d show that specific care they need to look great feel good and learn to care for their own hair too
@@ThatGirl-tg7wd yes! Especially when no one has hair like yours! Luckily my dad's whole side of the family is Black and i grew up knowing how to care for my hair, but that boy, i almost cried, seeing him traumatized, hims my bebe! And he still comes over and let's me play in his hair!
I feel like I am really getting into Korean entertainment more if I can recognise people from variety shows on other shows. I use to only recognise singers and actors and actresses
As a black girl who's hair is not the curliest when it comes to texture, I wish I had her hair texture. She is so pretty and the fact that she can grow it that long at such a young age as well as wear it down the way she does makes me so jealous. While I know it is probably not as easy as I assume it is to take care of her hair, it looks like it would be easier than what I would have to deal with. Then again I could definitely do better when it comes to my own hair. I commend her mom, however, as she knows what she is doing and it definitely shows through that beautiful hair of hers. Love it. 😊😊😍😍🥰🥰💜💘💜
@ambriaa's island Thank you for the encouragement. It is definitely needed. While I find afro hair absolutely gorgeous, it can be difficult for me personally. Not because I don't love it, but because of how much time and energy it takes to take care of my own. While I'm sure it's harder for others who have it way curlier, I sometimes feel like I'm wasting my time just trying to get out the door. Like I should be doing something more important during that time period. Idk, I just hope that I will be able to gain the same love and confidence you have conveyed in your comment someday. Again, thanks for the comment. It really made my day. 😊😊🥰🥰💜💘💜
@@snowtigress7744 I feel you, I used to spend hours at the sink trying to out loads of product and water to pluck my hair out just for people to shove their fingers and FACES into it. Now I have the confidence to tell people when I need space
@snowtigress7744 Hi, why do you struggle with your hair? What takes most of your time and why? I wash my hair once every 2 weeks and barely touch my hair during the week. To me the bulk of the "job" is done on wash day.
I'm laughing over here. I'm white with curly hair so I understand the struggle with brushing and combing. Those adults were way too clueless and the child's hair looked easy to deal with to me.
As a biracial person myself, my hair changes from day to day. 😂 One day the curls will stay and be pretty, and other days are frizzball days. 🤷♀️ You can forget about trying to wear your hair down on humid days. 🙅♀️ This little girl has lovely hair and I hope she grows up to appreciate how pretty it is. ❤
I 100% Agree! The crazy thing is her hair texture is straight, hardly even wavy. It's barely any different from the Full-Blood Korean woman in the video. Yet the Koreans are acting like this little girl is an exotic space alien with strange hair. As a mixed race person, I find this video ridiculous and offensive. Also, that little girl was born and raised in Seoul with a Korean Parent. She speaks fluent Korean. So why are they speaking to her in English. I'm sure the director told the little girl to speak to them in English so she would appear to be "foreign." This video was obviously made for a Korean audience and crafted to play into the biases of Korean people. If that girl was walking down the street in any Black neighborhood in America everyone would be asking, "Who is that little Asian girl???" Reply
Was this really difficult? 🤦🏾♀️ Her hair is closer to a straighter/wavy texture in this state? Also she isn't black but biracial which is why her hair doesn't have a tighter curl pattern. So this whole experiment is confusing to black people, who predominately have African genes and usually have much tighter curls and coils.
1. That is a mixed child...with hair close to type 1. 2. Can't wait to see them try other hair types and textures. That would be nice (and funny based on this video) to see. 😀
I like that he asked if he could touch her first. So respectful. Sometime I would have random people put their hand in my hair and when I turn around I wouldn’t know who it was lol
I melted when he asked for permission before touching her hair. Combing it from the bottom at first like he did is a good idea, because combing from the top with so much curls at the bottom while dry is gonna hurt. my hair is a 4c which means there's no single straightness to it. I don't even want to comb my hair talkless of letting someone else do it.
as a mixed girl myself her hair is gorgeous but not very curly at all i think it would be harder for them if they had someone with hair like mine or even curlier 😭
This baby’s hair is very manageable. They were super extra and over the top dramatic about doing the simplest hair style. Who brushes hair the way he was brushing her hair and who uses a rat tail comb for daily styling on thick hair of ANY texture. Most people would use a comb with wider teeth. Because this beautiful baby is biracial her hair texture is way different compared to mine, my daughters and granddaughter. Them playing in her hair caused it to become tangled and messy when it certainly was not when she set down.
These people don't have children, nor do they have curly hair. And even if their hair is straight it's awkward for anyone not a hair stylist to try do someone else's hair. You say it's extra, but my hair is way curlier than this child's and I can do my hair, but I'd feel very weird about trying to do someone else's kids hair, on camera, same hair texture as mine or not.
@@trl2151 PLEASE!! You don’t have to be a hair stylist to know how to brush hair… Nor do you have to be a parent to know how to brush hair. It’s not rocket science. Before I became a parent I’d NEVER did anyone else’s hair. Again it’s not rocket science. On camera or off camera it doesn’t make a difference. They were acting as if she had super tight hair.
Her hair is long, pretty and strong! Her hair is more straight than curly, maybe in type 2, I see some waves. I'm not familiar with straight hair but it made me uncomfortable seeing them brush without adding products in her hair, maybe because since I have curls, I have to put moisture in my hair first before I comb or detangle my hair.
Her hair is closer to Korean than Black lol, also can people stop that "oh there's black people with her hair" yeah sure but MAJORITY, almost all of us have thick afros.
Then you make a video with someone with a thick afro. Hair texture doesn't define a person's blackness smart-ass. The video isn't about most black people, it's about the one (singular) child.
Why do people that aren't black act like black people or mixed people are aliens? That lady in the white short that is doing her hair is actually doing a good job.
Thank you! We’re always met with this “amazement” or “confusion” when it comes to our skin and hair. Like we’re one big challenge that they don’t know how to approach. Just leave it be. (Im biracial)
@@mrenae6798 Be sure where these people are from diversity is lacking. My classmate’s mom is a basketball player, and every time she’d go to China to play, she’d get people asking to touch her hair and taking pictures with her because they were amazed by her since black people didn’t live in the area. Can’t blame people for being curious, but it can get out of hand. I live in an Asian area myself, and they literally pet your hair like you’re an animal and throw things in it to see if your hair will hold it. I thought the people in the video were respectful unlike the people where I live.
She's a very beautiful girl I don't see a very big problem is just that it doesn't really show what a black persons hair is it shows what mixed child's hair is which is a big difference. But I don't think we should start off too crazy because they never dealt with that type of hair before the texture is completely different from theirs so it's good to start off with her type of hair texture.
1:23 I love that the guy didn’t just go for the attempt. He still asked her permission before touching, regardless of ‘just’ doing her hair for a YT video. He has my respect for this, first and foremost 😊✨
Her hair didn’t even have like a tight curl to it her hair was more wavy so I wonder how they would react with even tighter curls because we already seen how they reacted to this 😂
I’m sick of people doing anything for views. Even if it means trying to strip an entire people of their dignity!!! 😮 Black people don’t want to be a part of your racist circus 🤡 sideshow!!! Let us gawk and exaggerate about your slant eye 👁️ stick hair Asian children. Then they will cry 😢 racism.😏
“issues with non-black people touching type 4 hair” i feel like it’s mostly just people who are inexperienced with type 4 hair- no matter what race, if you’re experienced with handling type 4 hair and know how to treat and style it, it shouldn’t be much of a big deal.
@@darnyoumadedropmycroissant7418 I’m not talking about the video, I’m responding to the comment. They were saying that there are problems non-black people *in general* touching type 4 hair. I’m sure they were implying that non-black people would end up damaging and ruining the hair, but it’s all just a matter of experience. Some black people may not how to treat type 4 hair, does their race mean that they should be trusted with that type of hair or should their experience determine that?
Chan hairstyle wasn't perfect but he gets 5 stars for effort and asking to touch her hair. ❤️ Her hair is absolutely beautiful, and as a black girl myself her curls are very loose compared to tight coiled curls black girl hair ✨️
I’m black and I could not handle 4c. I’m barely able to handle my 4a hair because it gets really tangly in some areas. I think this 3a-3c is better for these beginners
The guy was cool but the lady was acting weird. No way would I ever participate in something like this. I’m not a circus attraction and I’m pretty sure Asians have seen black people and their hair before. I also hate strangers touching my hair especially when they don’t know what they’re doing. These channels that are constantly pandering to blacks and claiming to be “inclusive” are actually demeaning and condescending and black people are buying right into it because they’re either ignorant, don’t care or they like the attention even if it’s negative.
I felt bad for Chan lol but if they had a girl with kinky curly hair that would be a fight of the century to manage I know because I experienced it. But now I have much shorter hair style it's way easier to handle.
Her hair texture is actually easy to mange probably because she is a half. I used to help my friend do her hair once and it's completely different hair texture. Its a lot harder.
@@tearioniarose Ignore this guy. Funny how everyone knows what biracial means, until it comes to half-black people. Suddenly, THAT'S when people wanna get super technical😑
Rora is my spirit animal when i'm at the salon 💀 but that brush tug from chan, i felt it physically 😭. But the girl is mixed it's technically black hair but not really. I think it is a bit misleading and spreading misinformation overall tho love the video and inclusivity
Yeah, as a black woman myself i will say her hair is the texture of a mixed child. A black child’s hair is more of 4a-4c hair texture. I used to be a hairdresser and did all hair types. I would say her hair would be like 2b hair texture range.
Wait so this video is misleading because she’s mixed? So I guess it’s misleading to say Obama was the first black president?? Since when have mixed people with a black parent not been black??
@@proverbs31university . It is misleading because generally portraying that as *black hair* leads to the public-especially those who have no interaction with black pple or blackness-thinking black hair is only 3a type only furthering the whole circle of texturism and actual black hair erasure. i only prefaced that she was mixed to further explain the above, she has the right to identify however she likes because she is MIXED after all.
