It's a damn mess is what it is.

She looks like a child with a white mama who doesn't know how to do her hair.

I don't think that 1st picture style would be considered an afro at all

I've seen quirky styles like that in fashion land a lot, and I've seen them on all ethnic types

I heard/read someone call it kinky punk before

I love these, they are like a cloud - like a head in the clouds

Like I said...you folks are acting as if she was the person whocam up with the creative concept for this and did her own hair for a fashion editorial. At this point all the harping on it is pretty silly, really.

Her hair looks like a shrub, but I love it! I think it's pretty. If she wants to wear a polyester shrub on her head that resembles hair, I see nothing wrong with it.

Halle is gorgeous but I can name tons of other women who are prettier. Her features are a little bland for my taste. She's gorgeous in a mannequin kinda way. Cicely Tyson at her peak was prettier than Halle and so is Diahann Caroll.

that can be another topic that will never end: who is prettier than who

who is prettier or uglier than Halle is not what it's about, it's about the Interview Magazine Halle Berry photo shoot

staying within the topic, Halle is very pretty and gorgeous as with Cicely and Diahann. Beauty reflects the generation's pov.

I had a friend who would say, "Bitch's head looks like black sheep's ass."

This is NOT an afro. This is went to bed without braiding and woke up a hot mess.

what about side-bar opinoins? are they not allowed as they have been in the very recent past?

is there a rule about sid-barring while offering another pov or associating similarities on certain (celebrity) people to the celebrity person that is the topic of this type of thread?

is it okay if i say i agree with MidniteMagnet said without creating a whole new thread?

lol, I wonder is there some kind of guideline for how to read/interprete peoples expression by cyberspace

There are times when the others intentions and emotions are clear, but most times people read into anothers email/post etc how they are feeling at the time

I too am very friendly probably too much, I smile a lot, even when I don't mean too

(and you probably know how that can go...people take it for weakness)

I do it all the time though, I'll orgnote someone to make sure I'm reading something clearly before I put out a response

It's easy to misinterpret responses, especially if you don't know them. Some orgers here know each other, which I find interesting
