After reading through the comments section on a few natural hair related posts online, I noticed a pattern in the comments that kept coming up on a lot of articles. Some of the comments are so controversial that they still spark debates between readers of the natural hair community.
So, rather than dragging the same great debates into decades to come, I have compiled ten of these comments for us all to look at in great detail. But before we can go into each topic, I’d like to first test your knowledge on each of the statements below to see how much you know about your natural hair.
After your pop quiz, we will then be tackling each question in a series of posts over the next few weeks. So, make sure you come back every week to check if your answers were correct.

All you have to do is to leave your answers below; and if you think the questions are too easy, then you can leave the true statement for every false question in the comment box below.
