Embracing your hare (a bra's perspective)
August 12, 2007 in Die Yard by Mulla (Sergei Müller)
In February 2007 we had a mooi kullid kin’ write ‘n article about coloured meisies coming to terms with their curly hare and embracing what makes them the beautiful brown people they are.
As some of yous know, I’ve been working in London for amper three maande now and with the change in location I soema decided I’d grow my hair awso.
Back when I was small I had a moerse klomp issues because my hair wasn’t so straight like my broetjie’s. It het oekie gehelp dat die fokken laaities my vir ‘n jap gevatit ‘ie. Die donners het my soema “Michael Jackson” geroep.
But anyways… I digress (jurre, who would’ve thought nuh… ‘n kullid laaitie can soema “digress”)…
I spoke to my chommie and he was wysing me how he used to straighten and blow dry his hare and then he must nogals doggie paddle by St James (ja… no pools in those years) so that his hair don’t mince.
So, this is just a note to wys the kullid ouense that you don’t need to have a number one boys’ cut or spend a moerse lot of time and money on gelling your hare to get that perfect spikes… you can awso embrace what makes you different.

Straight vannie London en nou met ‘added afro.
Jarre Mulla… djy lyk in jou pokes!!!
Jarre… so true gaasie! So true!!
After growing up and going to school at Garlandale, all I ever wanted was to yuk spikes! You mos wys most of the laanies at the school mos yukked spikes!
But then, I realised… my hare isn’t straight, and it isn’t kroes! So now what?!
So for the last 10 years, I can nogals say that not one day, have I yukked the same hair style – and that’s mos jits! Cos you don’t look the same everyday!
Ja bra… you mos know the constant hustle mos takes a moerse lot out of a bra.
Brasse with spikes are usually kak conceited. Or they use glycerine soap (do you know how awful it is to run your hands through the hair of a bra that used glycerine soap on his hair???). So glad that you embraced your naturals Mulla. A person mos can’t get away from your roots…
Ja bra… The mense at work are all wysing me to leave it, maar my housemate, Michele het my soema met a haar matjientie gethreaten.
Ons coulerds moet ons hare embrace, we are what we are, en dis tyd ons dit except en ophou om so unoriginal te lyk!!!!!!!
Toby… watte bra se hare het djy dan gevoel?
Kykie, ek hoep djy praat van jou eie hare LOL!!!
Naai, that time when spikes where in is lankal verby… now its up down left right, hang af of op… which ever way the wind blows, or the towel rolls.
Ha, ha Ferril. Nee man. Ek sittie daai kak op my kop nie.
Still when I was in school. Kykie, I’m not a bra in case you were thinking that.
Ek het al die glycerine siep en die kak gel gevoel. You know, that cheap gel you get in that moerse jar? That looks like jelly that’s starting to go mif? The ones they sell at the stalltjies in Lentegeur and Town Centre innie Plain.
