Around these parts, we watch a LOT of hair videos. And while most are informative, many of them aren't exactly fun to watch. Unless you consider watching someone talk to a camera while standing in their bathroom, fun.

Which is why when I laid eyes on the wonderful webisodes being made by Andrea of art and design blog Fly, I had to share with the world!

Check this out!

Ah, Halloween. A time to stuff your face with candy and get dressed up in a crazy costume. And every year, the day after Halloween there are celebrity photos that make you wonder -- what the hell were they thinking?

This year's case study, Mel B. These days, the only thing "scary" about this former Spice Girl is what she's done to her little girl's hair. Check out the Spice Girl and her family on Black Celebrity Kids.

Look closely at little Angel Iris' hair. Yes, that's a mohawk. Yes, her hair is completely shaved on the sides. And I am sincerely hoping that her hair is straight because of heat, and not from chemicals.

If you visited Newsweek.com's Human Condition blog today, you may have been greeted by this beautiful photo of two bright eyed, big haired girls. Those adorable little afrobellas are my nieces, Dominique and Isabella! And the article was my response to the latest rebuttal by Allison Samuels.

Hey response to the bloggers, if you will, was titled We Are All Team Zahara, and reignited ire throughout the blogosphere.

If there's one good thing to arise from Chris Rock's 'Good Hair' documentary, its the dialogue that the film has created. Sure, it stemmed mostly from the fact that some of us felt attacked by the filmmakers' perspective. But, still, we're talking about the issues behind our hair choices, and that's a good thing, right?

Some smart, funny, and brutally honest blog posts and comments have been popping up in the wake of 'Good Hair,' and there's so much to be learned from all sides of the discussion. And recently, two of my friends in the blogosphere (and completely unrelated) declared their hair allegiance. I found their divergent perspectives to be fascinating.

Maybe it was in the Eighties, when random streaks of color and asymmetrical cuts were the height of fashion. Maybe it was in the Nineties, when everyone was trying to emulate Jennifer Aniston's "Rachel" cut from Friends. You know you've had one, and maybe there's photographic evidence. The worst hairstyle you've ever had.

I'll share mine, if you share yours. Ready?

My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah I adore it
Hallelujah Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?
-From the musical Hair (1968)

While I was walking out of the theater after viewing Chris Rock's documentary "Good Hair," the young lady I was with commented, half jokingly, "Why'd he have to give away all of the secrets?" But in the back of my mind I said, These were secrets?

She, like my BV colleague Carmen Dixon, seemed a bit flustered with the movie and its message and what audiences were supposed to take away from it. As a guy, I was entertained by the film, and I didn't take it that seriously because after all...it's Chris freakin' Rock.

But looking back, I've seen what an issue hair is for women of all colors: How for some it's about self-esteem, and for others' it's about men. I've seen it used as a social barometer, as a weapon and even as a sex decoy-take that any way you want.

I've seen people fall in love over it and learn to hate themselves over it. It's been behind so many family stories passed down through the generations and has been the subject of shed tears in nightclub ladies rooms for the better part of a century. If it weren't for hair and the products we use to groom it, we never would have had Soul Train.

Maybe everybody hates Chris, but I don't hate him at all. Most of us know Chris Rock for the genius that he is, and the way he intelligently and hilariously describes the world around us. So, you can imagine my dismay when I got a call from Charlamagne Tha God, morning host for 100.3 "The Beat" in Philadelphia, who told me that Chris Rock had some choice words for AOL Black Voices and the criticism he has received for his film, "Good Hair."

Chris seemed to feel that those claiming that the movie bombed at the box office were incorrect, since the film was only released in a few theaters. He even (accurately) explains that saying his film bombed is like "comparing the movie 'He Got Game' to 'Star Wars'." Good point. Here are some other issues that Chris brought up and how some of these issues relate to wealth, power and ownership.
