Good Hair
2023
Computer Files, Websites
In this exposé of comic proportions, Chris Rock visits beauty salons and hairstyling battles, scientific laboratories and Indian temples to explore the way hairstyles affect the activities, wallets, sexual relationships and self-esteem of the American black community, in a way that only he could pull off. A raucous adventure prompted by his daughter asking him, "Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?", GOOD HAIR sees Rock engaging in frank, funny conversations with hair-care professionals, beauty-shop and barbershop patrons, and celebrities including Ice-T, Nia Long, Raven Symoné, Salt-n-Pepa, Eve and the Reverend Al Sharpton—all while he struggles with the task of figuring out how to answer his daughter's question.
