You could also go to Google and search something like cancun ladies hair. If you will be somewhere near Cancun, I imagine it will be fine because it’s got a lot of tourists. Also, you will be not so far from Belize which has a lot of black ladies!

Have a great time!

Question:

Ladies, where do you find product to do your hair in mexico?

Can the hairdresser in mexico do black women hair?

Aside from that, during the 4th and 5th days there, we were seen to be more receptive and vice versa. We felt a little more welcomed than day 1, and have found them to be very nice people as a whole…not to mention, flirtatious. Leonardo, our waiter at the time, would always light up when we would eat where he was serving, would always stop by me to talk, we danced a little, and he even made me a napkin flower! Aside from his flirtatious manner, he was truly sweet, along with this girl I met named Arito. Needless to say, and for the sake of argument, she’s light-skinned and even introduced us to her friends in her best English. Happy to say we’re now facebook friends :D

So if you’re ever in Puerto Vallarta or in any part of Mexico, keep in mind that you will be ‘the talk of the town,’ but that should not deter your intention to have fun. After all, it is a well-deserved vacation.

Mexicans get a bad rap in the US and even among some other latinos. Everyone there I met was super friendly. I visited some small small towns and they were very nice too. They were definitely curious and many were dying to talk to me. The children were especially warm too. I was giving several piggy-back rides daily.

I work heavily with mostly Mexican immigrants in the US here in LA and it’s the same thing. You would be amazed at how learning another language breaks down barriers.

Also, as people have pointed out it is not really in Mexican culture to be racist towards blacks. Understand that some indigenous groups in Mexico believed the black people are inherently good. I was told a story by this kid that his father taught him that when the first ships arrived from the European settlers it was supposed to be the Africans arriving. There was supposed to be a big celebration but instead it turned out to be Europeans. Talk to those of indigenous descent and they will share many interesting stories with you.

Don’t go to Mexico as a black person. Go as just who you are and that’s how they will treat you. I wouldn’t mind living there for a bit if it wasn’t for the current violence throughout the country.

Mexicans are way more polite than we Americans and intrinsically less racist in my opinion, so I would say you are less likely to encounter racism there than here!

And best wishes for a long and happy marriage.
