Let me partake on this weave and natural hair debate that has never reached any conclusion.It makes perfect sense for Africans to grow their natural hair.
I'm sure the Westerners are laughing at us now.
Have you seen a white woman putting on a dead black woman's hair? Or rocking a Pitch Black Afro wig?
My primary School teacher often said Ubuhle bentombi zinwele zayo so what happens when you are wearing synthetic or worse Brazilian weave.
Doesn't it bother you that fake hair is mostly sold in Brazil and India where poverty rates is escalating? They are likely encouraged to sell their human hair to make ends meet. Euww!
It's an undeniable fact that the minute you take if off the counter and pay few thousands it becomes yours? Right?!
I don't want to be too religious on you because its not my place but I think we are selling ourselves short.
To me, seeing a black sassy woman in a weave represents a lost generation.
We have detached from who we are and we subconsciously allowed the media to dictate to us what true beauty is.
You are not your hair but its part of who you are.
Love and appreciate the kinky hair you were born with.
