Good Hair Page #4
A beautiful way
to relax your kind of hair.
Mentally,
they're on this quest for
attaining the straightest hair possible,
trying to conform
to a more European look.
The straighter hair, the better.
And we've been coached
with that mentality since childhood.
With Vigorol Hair Relaxer
and a hot comb,
you'll have your hands full.
I remember seeing ads like this
when I was a little kid
watching ''Soul Train.''
What the hell
is relaxer anyway?
Where does it come from?
Well, some of it comes
from Greensboro, North Carolina.
This medium-size town
was once the capital
of the Confederacy.
White will fight desegregation!
But now it's the home
of Dudley Products,
a $35-million black-owned
hair empire
that employs thousands
of people worldwide.
Greensboro is the home
of the Dudley Mansion,
Mr. Dudley himself,
and, of course,
Dudley Manufacturing.
Dudley Products have been valued
at up to $100 million.
The plant itseIf is worth over ten.
and is situated
on over 47,000 acres
of prime North Carolina real estate.
In short,
Mr. Dudley is a nap impresario.
Bad hair has been very good
for Mr. Dudley.
What's he doin'?
Joe is making relaxer.
This is how they make relaxer?
This is a portion
of a 7,000-pound batch of relaxer.
7,000 pounds
is worth how much?
7,000 pounds,
This would last Prince
about a month.
Exactly.
The slightest
little bit of these chemicals
to the body.
in your eye
can potentially lead to blindness.
but it can lead to blindness
later on in life.
But you'll eventually
have a dog.
Yes, you will eventually have one.
And the more
as you continue to work in it,
it can have
an adverse affect on your body.
Let me read some of these.
''The rate of change
is controlled by what factors?
Temperature, concentration,
time, and pH.''
Wow, what's that word?
What? Ammonium thioglycolate?
Wait. Say that again
to the camera.
Ammonium thioglycolate.
You're smart.
Enrollment at
means one thing:
long nights poring over scalp theory.
These budding hair scholars
master the chemistry
of Dudley products
and how to use them
on mannequins,
even white mannequins.
They are
also tested on the finer points
of how not to put relaxer
in the eyes,
how not to burn ears
with hot combs,
but most importantly,
they learn
that if you can make
you can live like a king.
When you go back home,
