Don’t get it twisted, although Solange Knowles is a spokesperson for Carol’s Daughter, she doesn’t want to answer questions about her own hair, despite what the critics have to say about HER strands. After coming across a Tumblr post that pointed out praise for her protective hair choices (the big curly wig she wears sometimes) as well as negative comments about her own natural hair (it’s dry, it looks unkempt, etc.), she decided to talk about hair on her Twitter for the first time, and the last. And she went in. The most notable quote from her tweets was the following:

“Look, all i’m saying is. My hair is not very important to me….so i don’t encourage it to be important to you. Im very emotional today (involving something else) , so i’m letting the momentum of that help me to express the fact that…I dont want to talk about no damn hair…..no mo.”

Tell ‘em why you’re mad boo! To see the other Tweets she sent out to the “Natural Hair police of the world,” click over to our sister site, StyleBlazer.com.

    might as well talk about hair it has kept you relevant and its not like people want to hear her sing soooo lol

    might as well its not like people actually want to hear her sing lol

    why are people so offended though? lol it’s just hair. I don’t get this whole “pack” thing with the natural hair community. She’s allowed to have her own opinions on this issue separate from the status quo, and it is clear that hair is an afterthought in her life. She has a child to raise, a household to keep and a career to manage too. Never assume, the only thing you may have in common with the next woman IS your hair.

    I’m not a huge fan of Beyonce, but I will say this: Beyonce seriously needs to have a little chat with baby sis about professionalism. I don’t imagine Beyonce would ever make this big a fool of herself. What an ungrateful little brat. She gets paid to be a spokesperson for natural hair care products, then throws a public hissy fit over a few ignorant comments from anonymous internet trolls? Her entire career is buttressed by natural women who like her style, and she throws all of them (and her sponsors) under the bus? Not a good look, Solange!
    That is deeply unprofessional – and ugly.

    First she becomes the poster child for natural hair now she’s fed up. The timing on this is bad, with the whole carol’s daughter natural hair transitioning web site. Maybe she wants to go back to wearing weaves and singing backup for Beyonce?
