Thousands Demand Beyonce Comb Her Daughter's Hair

Thousands Demand Beyonce Comb Her Daughter’s Hair

Thousands of people have signed a petition asking Beyoncé and Jay Z to comb their daughter’s hair.

Once 2,490 more people sign and the stated goal of 5,000 signatures is reached, nothing will happen. But it’s all become very controversial.

The petition:

As a woman who understands the importance of hair care. It’s disturbing to watch a child suffering from the lack of hair moisture. The parents of Blue Ivy. Sean Carter A.K.A Jay-Z and Beyoncé has failed at numerous attempts of doing Blue Ivy Hair. This matter has escalated to the child developing matted dreads and lint balls. Please let’s get the word out to properly care for Blue Ivy hair.

The hair in question:

Even though the petition has only been signed (so far) by about .0007 percent of the U.S. population, it has become a big controversy on Twitter:

I would also like to point out that more and more African-Americans are wearing their hair natural. I am one of them, have been doing it for a year. My hair looks thicker and healthier. Just keep it moisturized and trimmed. Blue Ivy just needed some grooming to it, if she's to wear it out.

It is sad what some people put their energy into regarding national concerns these days. There are young kids killing kids in the street everyday, sex slavery, violence against women, etc., and people put their energy into creating a petition for Beyonce to comb her daughter's hair daughter's hair to their, liking? What's next? Protesting anyone wearing natural hair styles? Sadly I bet the complainers were mostly African-American women complaining about Beyonce's daughter's hair, just like many of them complained about Olympic Gymnast Gaby's hair. Wow..is this the future concerns and priority issues of American society now?? Pathetic. It irritates me that too often, among our own group, we're often the ones too critical or non-embracing of specific aspects of ourselves, and we make it hard sometimes for us to 'just be'.

I am so happy to see that in present-day, so many young and older African-American females, are wearing their hair in their natural styles and not ashamed of it.

Grooming means combing. Nothing wrong with wearing your hair natural. Just comb it. While this was over the top it looks like it made someone get off their lazy butt and comb that girl's hair.

If the mother has over $1 million in extensions and wigs, with multiple millions in the bank, surely a hairstylist can be found. I think that's what the petitioners were getting at. As you said, this apparently was laziness on her mother's part more than anything else.

Trolls be gone!

I agree. There is a diff between natural hair and hair that does not look combed. Ivy's hair did not look tended to. THat said, that petition is dumb

I think the petition was a bit immature but I think the purpose of it wasn't so bad. It's not a question of hair texture (as you said) but it's a matter of appearance. There's no reason that a child's hair should look like that, especially if the parents are multi-millionaires in which one of the parents has a weave collection worth over a million dollars.

I think it has to do with their own elegant image. There are a lot of millionaires that just don't look that pretty all the time.

I hear you, but I think the outrage is that it appears that she's turning into one of these moms who has an entire team to help her look good but then you look at her daughter and it's not a pretty sight. The child should never look worse than the mother.

You have a pernt. There are chicks in the hood who make their child more presentable than that. I wasn't really trying to say anything about this, but then I remember that Beyonce is a Negropean now.

Ha! Has she surrendered her "Creole, not black" label? Seems like there's so much phony-ness about her but the fact that her kid, as you said, has kids in the hood looking better this is shameful. I wasn't going to comment on this thread either but seeing the contrast between mother and daughter was shocking.

I've heard so many non-black women on TV defending this by saying it's "natural hair". They have no idea the difference between unkempt, matted up hair and GROOMED natural hair. If someone had straight hair and rolled out of bed without coming it for days on end, no one would say it's "natural", they would say it's a mess! It's an insult to black women who have natural hair styles to say that this matted up disaster on this child's head is "natural".

I guess most of those who are targeting beyonce's child are the ones who spend thousands on dead hair being sewn onto their scalps while denying the truth of their natural hair.
maybe Beyonce and jay z wanted their daughter to embrace her naturalness with pride during her important formative years.
anyway, just goes to show you how many people denegrate themselves by looking at the world with racially tinted lenses when viewing beauty standards for women of African descent.
(India is getting very wealthy from selling dead hair to the self loathing)

Is it me or are there scores of people that do not know the difference between natural GROOMED HAIR and natural MATTED UP, MESSY hair? Dirty clothes aren't the same as clean clothes. This whole thing is an insult to women who wear GROOMED NATURAL hair.

Besides, why are some people saying that the parents want her to have natural hair but you all know you haven't seen Beyonce's real hair since 2000, on top of that she's been a blonde for damn near twenty years. Geez.
