Good Hair: Chris Rock's Harrowing Investigation Into Raven-Symone's Weave

One day, Chris Rock's daughter asked him the provocative question, "Daddy, why don't I have good hair?" Somehow, this has led to a documentary where Raven-Symone adjusts her two-piece weave on camera. Let's connect the dots!

Rock's documentary, Good Hair, sheds light on the booming industry that helps black women relax, replace, and sculpt their hair. All the important questions are asked, such as "Is this cultural homogeneity a healthy thing?" and "Hey, what is weave sex like?"

The doc premiered at Sundance and will be out in theaters October 9, but until then, HBO Films has put together a fun, snappy trailer. Chris, you had us at the Prince joke -- throwing in Raven's hair show (that heifer!) is just a shiny, bonus barrette.

VERDICT: Sold.
