In the multiple scenes that I watched, it was mainly a lot of the interviews that Chris did, he talked to various African-American Celebrities and African-American people on how much money they spend on their hair.
What comment on the hair industry is being made?
That the hair industry is utterly expensive and ridiculous. The fact that African-American women have to spend over $1000 on a weave to have the "good hair" they desire or ridiculous amounts of money to have it permed and have the risk of burning their hair off.
Who is in the scene?
Chris Rock, African-American celebrities, women and men.
Does the scene use any evidence to convince the viewer of a particular idea?
The scene uses evidence of people and hairdressers giving the price of how much their weaves are gonna cost to show that yes, the hair industry is utterly expensive for African American women.

-How does the scene want the viewer to react?
To react shocked at the statistics of how much African-American women are willing to pay to have “good hair.” They also probably want white people especially to feel glad that they don't have to pay as much as African American women for their hair and make African-American people relieved that they aren't the only ones going through the pain of spending money on a weave.

-Is there any bias in this scene? What is being left out?
There is a lot of bias in these scenes. Chris Rock mainly interviews the women yes, but when he interviews the men he automatically thinks that it's the men who pay for the women's weaves which is not exactly true. Women pay for their own weaves as well showing a lot of sexism as if saying women don't go to work and therefore the men pay for everything themselves

-What visual conventions are used in the scene?
Visual conventions that are used include Interviews, Mise-en-Scene, Narration and Montage

In this scene the African/American teenage girls believe that having a weave or using relaxer is the only way for a black woman to get a decent job.
The hair industry is making kids believe that conforming to white standards means looking like a professional employee. The hair industry is deeming black hair to be messy and unprofessional.
This scene demonstrates that even black adolescents feel like they aren't good-looking enough without some kind of major beauty accessory. Thy don't just feel unattractive, they feel inferior and unprofessional compared to those who hold the standard of ‘good hair’.
