Those were great! I loved the Sun Chip one because I just think the hair looked amazing on the model and I liked the way the sun looked on it. I have seen almost all of those commercials except the latin Ballys one. Natural hair commercials are now really common in Canada too. I see natural hair way more than relaxed hair in Canada.

I Love the Nuva Ring commercial. Everytime it comes on I’m at the edge of my seat waiting for her to take the swim cap off. I love the way her hair bounces back into place.

Natural hair is a part of life, nice to see adverts reflect this.

Looove your “Ads That Rock” section! I actually Googled “natural hair in advertisements” and was routed to your website. Another woman did a blog about this new trend in advertisements, and we are curious about why advertisers seem to choose “curly” haired models, over straightend, or chemically processed African American models in advertisemts. You can find my take on it on the comment section at http://crownnglory.blogspot.com/2009/07/naturals-in-advertising.html

I would be interested in seeing what others think on this topic!
