  • Why do black girls/woman wear weaves and wigs all the time, like it's the thing to do?

    Come on now, really? (yes, I know other women wear weaves as well.) I think that it is okay to wear a weave or a wig on SPECIAL OCCASIONS to add a little thickness or length, but everyday? I especially hate when people wear it down to the middle of their back, or dye it blond!!! (????) The only black people that has hair to the middle of their back, are African's. It is so tacky, they think that it looks cute, but in reality, it looks like a bad ass rug or a dead animal sitting on top of their head. I am mixed (Black and Panamanian, and their hair is thick and nappy), and yes, I have had a hard time getting my hair to grow, and the only time I ever wore a weave was this past summer when I got extensions (braids), and I WILL NEVER DO IT AGAIN!! Just because I am mixed doesn't necessarily mean that I have "good hair". Spend the extra money and go to the shop and you will be amazed at how much your hair will grow. My hair has been the same length since I was 15, but now it is growing because I go to the shop. Stop wearing so much damn weaves, fake lashes, nails, and so much damn make-up, it's not cute, it really isn't!!! My black is beautiful! YOU MAY THINK IT'S CUTE OR SEXY, BUT REST ASSURE....... IT ISN'T EVEN FLATTERING!!! So, my questions is..... why do you feel the need to wear a weave? Actually, I think that it is a front. You look like a completely different person with hair that is not yours. It's kind of gross. And no a woman did not "steal" my man, I have been with my husband for 12 years. I really want to know why woman wear fake hair, why not just let it grow? I guess I will be fair, the only weaves that looks half way presentable are real hair.... I guess.

    Where and why? Personally (I know this may sound stupid but it's true..) i think that each body and person is different and that's how God designed us to be. Of course society messes this up by deciding what body type/look is better than another though. Opinions?
