Am I really the only one who is starting to truly despise hair weaves? Or better yet women who act like they cannot live without one. Boy these Korean beauty supply store owners are making money off of black people! Now I have rocked weaves in the past and yea I looked cute. But, they pull your edges out, they make you tap your head like a mad person. And I was not a habitual hair weave wearer. I switched it up from perm to braids to weave to whatever. But now I am natural, well I am locking my hair actually. I have friends whom hair I have never seen without a weave that I have known for several years. I have friends who cannot go outside without a wig or weave in their hair. I have a cousin who is locking her hair but wears a wig everyday because she doesnt want to experience the "ugly phase". But my thing is oh, so one magical day your going to pull off your wig and you'll have dreads down to your shoulder? All I can say is 'loser.' Black women embrace some of the same qualities we criticize men for desiring. A bit hypocritical to me. As a recent college grad maybe I will go open a beauty supply shop and watch the premium yaki fall off the shelves just as fast as hair dye and skin lightening creams...
tell me what you think.
