The incision is small, the story is simple, and very clever, enabling full discussion. This video pokes me very much, a bit surprised at the low score.
Combing hair seems to be more a matter between mother and daughter, and a bond between mother and daughter. Father cannot participate most of the time. For little girls, it is very important to be able to comb their hair neatly and beautifully. Hairstyle is a particularly important source of self-esteem and self-confidence. Whether elementary school girls’ hairstyles are neat and beautiful is directly related to their status in the class. And the image in the teacher's mind, important occasions must have a neat haircut, and it is often the mother who plays the role of trimming the hair for her daughter. When the mother/women in the family do not help the girl to tidy up, the girl has to explore it by herself. This process is usually longer. Learning to comb her hair is the key to growth. It is also when the mother-daughter bond changes. The bond of combing hair may fade, but Will not disappear. For most mothers, combing their daughter’s hair is troublesome, but it is an important moment to show love, and outsiders often judge the mother’s ability based on the girl’s hairstyle. When I was a child, I relied on my mother to comb my hair, but she often didn't have time later. I was ridiculed by Mei Chaofeng because of her messy hair, but it was only after the age of ten that I could comb my hair better. My mother often lamented that she had no time to comb my hair, but she was afraid that others would say she didn't take care of me. Before I went to school, I went to my mother's bed and said goodbye to her. She squinted slightly and stood up and combed my hair. Later, she combed my hair, and I followed her to comb my hair, which brought us incomparable happiness, and was deeply touched by speechlessness.
For adult women, hair is an important part of releasing sexual charm, and a lot of pheromones are emitted from the hair. For cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, the constant loss of hair is a great blow to self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-identity as a person (woman). This kind of pain seems hard to empathize for people who have never experienced it before. Before my mother's chemotherapy, the doctor advised her to shave her hair first. At that time, her mother was very resistant and determined not to shave. No matter how we encouraged, persuaded, and prepared a wig, she would rather wait for the roots to loosen and fall by herself. But when the hair really fell, she was scared because of the handful of hair on the pillow and on the floor, and hurried to find a female relative in the family to shave her head. At that time, she always looked at my hair idiotically, saying that our hair was exactly the same, thick, black, and tenacious, and she also said that she hoped I would not let her go, let my dad get better, and I won’t have black hair when I grow old. . But at that time, I just felt that my mother was irrational again. What's the point of shaving her head? I wanted to try it. In the past seven years of fighting cancer, my mother's fear of chemotherapy and hair loss has not diminished.
The film tells about blacks, related to the cultural oppression caused by the "unique" of their hair, culture, colonial history, racial discrimination and other factors, as well as the efforts made by blacks to resist cultural oppression and the gradual reconstruction of cultural self-confidence (hairstyle) Process. A black female classmate with extremely curly hair came from Africa. She was funded by the church to go to a girls’ school in the United States and then to a graduate school in the United Kingdom. She often looked at my hair in a daze, lamenting that my hair quality is very good. With straight hair like mine, curly hair brought her all kinds of pain and inconvenience, and it was very troublesome to take care of. The white Asian classmates always liked to stare at her hair hard, in a posture that she wanted to touch. Later, she was self-conscious. Give up and say in advance, "It's okay to touch it if you want." At that time, I just smiled when she was telling a joke. Later, I saw an exhibition about black hair fashion at the City Museum of London. I learned that black hair stylists were the first to let blacks pursue white aesthetics. They developed straight hair and gold-plated products for black hair, explored their own aesthetics, and developed their own hairstyle fashion. , I thought of her again. Because of the strange hair style, the inconvenience and the curious look, she hates her own hair and hates the part of identity that her hair represents.
I also want to write something about hairstyles and racial discrimination, but I don’t have enough knowledge... Let’s just let it go.
