I personally don't see anything wrong with weaves or braids. Especially now since I am older. I think most women wear weaves as a protective style as I know many women with long hair that would rock a weave to give their natural hair a break, especially from perms and the summertime humidity.
Also, there is a BIG stereotype that BW can't grow their hair long. A generalization that was made by the media, because they conclude that since entertainers and or models hide their natural hair itmust be "bad" hair and or short hairneeding weave.
Again some women useweaves as a protective style ask the creater of http://www.growafrohairlong.com. Her natural hair is 28 inches in length almost waist length. |
Hell yeah, that's true. Just today I was talking to another black woman and she asked me if I was "mixed" or had Indian because of my supposed "good hair." Please, black women can grow their hair long if they would stop putting all of these dangerous chemicals in their hair and just leave it be!
