If there's anything the beauty industry,Watch Young Wife Bai Jie the media, basically everywhere constantly fails at, it's celebrating one's own natural look.

Knowles posted the original photo on Instagram Thursday, calling out the magazine for retouching her with the caption "dtmh" which stands for "don't touch my hair," referencing the song mentioned above.
This is especially ironic considering Knowles openly spoke about the importance of her braids in this magazine's issue.
"Braiding is important to Knowles," the article actually reads.
"It is an ‘act of beauty, an act of convenience and an act of tradition’ — it is ‘its own art form,’" she adds. "'Every black woman has a personal journey with her own hair, and for Knowles it began in her mother’s salon which was a refuge — ‘a spare bedroom so to speak’ — for her as a young girl."
Not only has this caused discomfort for Knowles but also for the reporter of the story who asked her byline to be removed.
