I’ve only seen the trailer. But when Chris Rock’s new documentary Good Hair hits select theaters today, I imagine those in the dark will walk out laughing, and with (hopefully) a better understanding of the complex relationship between a black woman and her hair.But what about a man’s hair dilemmas? Finding a good barber. The rigorous upkeep. The limited selection of hairstyles we can choose from—depending on profession. Not to mention the stigmas attached to styles we do end up choosing—Rock should make a sequel to Good Hair. Call it Good Hair For Men, Too.

It was rather difficult writing this. In fact, it will be even harder reading it. I love Barack Obama (um…no proposition 7). I voted for him, traveled hundreds of miles to see his inauguration, and argue tirelessly at the Klansmen on Fox News every night.
