Love my Hair Performance by Mickey Guyton, Brittney Spencer and Madeline Edwards

Country music artists Mickey Guyton, Brittney Spencer and Madeline Edwards performed a rendition of "Love my Hair" at the CMA Awards in 2021. It is a beautiful song about embracing the hair that we were given and finding freedom through self love and loving one's natural hair.

The song was inspired by Faith Fennidy, a young African American girl who faced hair discrimination while attending school in the south. She was prohibited from wearing braids in the classroom by the school's principal, who gave her a week to remove them or face expulsion.

Watch as Mickey, Brittney and Madeline perform this iconic and inspirational song while stylishly sporting BIG curls and fros. Lean back and listen to the soothing sounds of these black country music artists:

They have been clinically linked to reproductive disorders, infertility, cancer and other diseases.
