Many men and women straighten and dye their hair. Is his a manifiestation of self hate in a white racist society or an expression of the creativity of Black people?

Of course nothing is as Black or white as I posed the question, but I always find it curious when I see a Black woman (the dark skinned variey) with straight blond hair. I'm not attempting to make an judgement of whether it looks good or not; I'm just trying to find out if people think this is more of an attempt to mimick white standards of beauty or simply an innocent attempt to standout.
