Many have since called out the clothing retail company out for not styling the black girl’s hair the way they would a white child’s hair.

I see a BEAUTIFUL black girl with a pulled back bun of her LOVELY, natural hair. –

Anyone seeing anything negative in this picture must understand that THEY are the source of the NEGATIVITY. They are projecting negative anti-black ideas on HOW her hair grows NATURALLY. It’s fixed ALREADY! –

I hear people encouraging us to “EMBRACE OUR NATURAL SELVES”…well, THIS is NATURAL. Stop picking and choosing what’s considered appropriate hair for AFRICAN or AFRICAN AMERICANS just because she’s posted on H&M. EITHER embrace ALL natural images or STOP complaining when others don’t! What did you expect? A lace frontal with baby hairs? ???? –
