Resumo: |
Everyday people produce meanings and position themselves in face-to face interpersonal relations as well as in social media and a brief observation of the daily life in our society allows us to see that there is a clear connection between digital networks and the contemporary cultural context. In this scenario, there are black women making public statements about their hair transition from straightening practices back to their “normal” hair. There are also business enterprises in the beauty sector offering products for this purpose generating a type of interaction that has led to changes in the way black women relate to their hair. The aim of this research was to identify different versions of hair transition that circulate among black women. More specifically, a) to analyze the narratives of black women regarding the reasons for transitioning to a “natural” hair style; b) to discuss the relationship between hair transition and changes in the way they position themselves as black women. For this purpose, the notion of positioning proposed by Rom Harré (DAVIES; HARRÉ, 1990) was adopted which considers the self as a social construction, product of discursive practices through which people make sense of the world and their own actions. In this manner, it was possible to understand the construction of these narratives as a result of the legacy of black activism. With this purpose, the research was based on the theoretical and methodological frame of reference of constructionist Discursive Psychology, with focus on the production of meanings in the day-to-day. The narratives of nine black women who went through hair transition and told their stories in testimonials available in videos in the web series “Women in transition” were analyzed using thematic maps. Results suggest that hair transition is a form of aesthetic and subjective decolonization |
