Flash Movie Review: Good Hair

For the past several years, the hair follicles on my head have been deserting me; so, hair has only been a minor focus for me. This documentary was both informative and funny, with Chris Rock leading us on a fact finding mission, to find out what it means to have good hair. Going from hair salons, to a hair convention, to science labs and even all the way to India–the biggest exporter of hair, Chris hopes to discover the reasons behind the different ways black woman display their hair. In some of the interviews, the responses to Chris’ questions were hysterical; for example, one man said he judges women by their hair style. If they are wearing a weave, he feels they will be a high maintenance woman. I am aware that Chris Rock can be a polarizing entertainer; but, I would like to suggest to you, do not let that get in the way from watching a documentary that will entertain you.

About moviejoltz

From a long line of movie afficionados, one brother was the #1 renter of movies in the country with Blockbuster, I am following in the same traditions that came before me. To balance out the long hours seated in dark movie theaters, I also teach yoga and cycling. For the past 3 years, I have correctly picked the major Oscar winners... so join me as we explore the wonder of movies and search for that perfect 4 star movie.
