Chris Rock, a man with two daughters, asks about good hair, as defined by Black Americans, mostly Black women. He visits Bronner Brothers' annual hair convention in Atlanta. He tells us about sodium hydroxide, a toxin used to relax hair. He looks at weaves, and he travels to India where tonsure ceremonies produce much of the hair sold in America. A weave is expensive: he asks who makes the money. We visit salons and barbershops, central to the Black community. Rock asks men if they can touch their mates' hair - no, it's decoration. Various talking heads (many of them women with good hair) comment. It's about self image. Maya Angelou and Tracie Thoms provide perspective.
Leave your thoughts about Good Hair.
| Toronto StarLinda BarnardIt's more TV special material that theatrical release. But thanks to Rock's laid-back humour, Good Hair is also good entertainment. |
| Orlando WeeklyJustin StroutWhatever Rock's impetus for exploring the wallet-busting, day-consuming, sometimes chemically dangerous desire of black women to achieve European hair, he's never wanting for laughter. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookOne of the best movies of the year seems to be lost in the Halloween-time shuffle. |
| AV ClubNathan RabinIs it possible to talk about the fascinating and complex universe of black hair without dealing with race and identity? That’s the question posed by Good Hair. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaAlthough its tone is generally genial and jovial, Good Hair touches on some tricky issues, at times complicitly. |

| Boston PhoenixShaula ClarkGood Hair is a film that will make your head itch to know more. |
| USA TodayClaudia PuigGood Hair is cause for hope that Rock continues to make documentaries. His style is lively, smooth and up-to-date, like the most coveted 'do. |
| Radio TimesKaren KrizanovichThough its production values are on the low side and it flounders a little as it bounces from Hollywood to India, overall it's a fascinating, energetic and enlightening film that'll ensure you'll never look at hair the same way again. |
| ScotsmanAlistair HarknessThough Rock's affable nature and probing comic instincts ensure the tone is always light and jocular, his discoveries are sometimes jaw-dropping... |
