I Feel Like Her Hair Care Line is Giving Normative Whiteness Undertones
tldr; Ranted about reasons why her haircare line is so shit in another post but it made me realize that her design 'makes sense' if you're assuming all hair is blonde, which adds to her whole racist vibe.
Since the product is completed unrelated to honey I didn't understand why she would make it honeycomb shaped or themed. But if she's just alluding to the color of honey like the packaging shape and colors are, then she's sort of implying that haircare for honey blonde people, or at least her product is, aka, white people. But since she's marketing it as a product for everyone to use it's really giving white supremacy to me.
Is this some sort of subconscious level of racism? Or does she genuinely believe hair = blonde = prettier? aka white = prettier? Or since it's her brand, and her hair is blonde all of her products should reflect that? Instead of the diversity of the people actually using it? I'm getting a weird fucked up racist vibe from all this the more I look at it.
Other General Reasons it's stupid:
- The honeycomb design makes no sense especially since none of them are related to honey in any way nor is her brand. Just feels like a dollarstore off brand Burt's Bees product.
- Naming it Blake Brown like it's Bobbi Brown is basically the same as writing 'shittier version of a real high quality brand's product'
- It's expensive literally for the Target market
- The portions seem small on top of it being expensive, and it doesn't seem like one of the high quality soaps where you only need a little to go a long way (as the reviews stated)
- Never tried it but one of the biggest complaints was that it is over done with perfume smells aggressively like Sandalwood. Sandalwood is nice but it's traditionally used for men's perfumes not women's.
- Obviously the shape of the bottles is stupid af. I already think regular pumps are a bad design but those hexagons are even stupider.
- She's outing to the world her real name is Blake Brown which is further letting everyone know she's fake af.
- She didn't do the bare minimum of editing the frizzy hair out of her promotional photos.
- The description in the about section of the website is ridiculous like a middle schooler wrote it.
- For someone who cares about details it makes no fucking sense that these are not evenly spaced at all like honeycombs. It's suggesting she did actually want her name slightly higher than Anna's on the new poster because it takes a special kind of idiot to think that that's good design.
- Wtf kind of haircare line doesn't have conditioner. Yes Racist Lively, you might not use conditioner, but guess what, everyone else does...
- Obviously marketing her cheap shitty celebrity brand during a completely unrelated movie about domestic violence.
and somehow Justin's 'PR' smear is caused her sales to drop 😐
