00:00What's your definition of good hair?
00:16If somebody looks relaxed and nice.
00:18If your hair is relaxed, white people are relaxed.
00:20If your hair is nappy, they're not happy.
00:22Oh, God.
00:24Chris Rock will take you back to your roots.
00:27Just yesterday, my daughter came into the house and said,
00:30Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?
00:32I wonder how she came up with that idea.
00:35Within the black community, if you have good hair,
00:37you're prettier or better than.
00:39The lighter, the brighter, the better.
00:41They want to go like this, like brown faucet.
00:43There's so many pressures to straighten your hair.
00:44Look at my ring, still there.
00:48Relax is the chemical that will take a black woman's hair from this
00:51and change it into this.
00:53It's kind of like a torture session.
00:55Could you tell us how dangerous relaxer is?
00:58Sunny hydroxide will burn through your skin.
01:00So that can's got a good purge.
01:02This whole side was burnt off.
01:04And that's how the asymmetrical look came in with salt pepper.
01:07So you're saying your hair is addicted to relaxer?
01:09I am on the creamy crack.
01:10Creamy crack.
01:11So what's in your hair now?
01:13This is a weave.
01:14This is a weave.
01:15Two pieces here.
01:16You know, like extensions.
01:17Like, like that.
01:18The black hair business is a $9 billion business.
01:22One of these can run you $5,000.
01:24Well, I have a layaway plan.
01:25So you can lay away the weave.
01:27That's right.
01:28Have you ever put your hair through a black woman's hair?
01:30Hell no!
01:31Not a black woman!
01:32You just don't touch it.
01:33Do not touch my weave.
01:34No.
01:35Does your wife let you touch her hair?
01:36The question is, do I let her touch mine?
01:38Weave sex is a little awkward.
01:40What do you do?
01:41I guess stay on top.
01:43This is a 7,000 pound batch of relaxer.
01:47This will last prince about a month.
01:49Get ready to go around the world.
01:51Right now, I have Indian hair.
01:52Human hair is India's biggest export.
01:54We need 10 inch to 40.
01:5610 inches and better.
01:57Yes.
01:58It's like porno.
01:59Didn't we?
02:00In the award-winning new comedy that Vanity Fair calls hilarious.
02:04Has anybody ever tried to steal your hair?
02:06No.
02:07If you see some black women, just run the other way.
02:09What I really wanted to know, if I could make any money selling black hair.
02:14Black hair!
02:15Would you like to buy some black hair?
02:17They don't want to look like you don't ever cut like this.
02:19You make sure the hair's straight, look more natural.
02:21So my nappy hair is not worth anything?
02:23Good hair.
02:24My advice for men when they're making love to a woman who has a wig is keep your hands on them.
