Brehs are wearing bonnets now?

[LordDeathwatch]

Last Saturday morning at the gym I saw a breh who looked like he was in his late teens/early twenties wearing a bonnet, knee length bball shorts, and crocs. I was surprised because he didn’t look zesty. Then I saw this video in my feed this morning. Is this gonna be a new trend?

Speaking of YouTube, there's a breh from Cali on there that wears a bonnet most of the time named Berlin a.k.a. Berleezy. He's pretty popular, millions of followers and headlined DreamCon, my kids watch him a lot.

Definitely not zesty but breh sells his trademark bonnets as part of his merch. I just assumed it was a younger generation thing when they showed me one of his videos.

Why do you wear one to bed

 

[Rn.]

I wear a bonnet to sleep, wouldn’t wear it in public

But to play devil’s advocate, what’s the difference between this and wearin a durag in public?

Why do you wear one to bed

My hair be in protective styles like cornrows, braids etc

I don’t wear it in public cuz my hair is nice so I don’t understand why I’d wear crib attire outside

I’d throw on a nike football cap if I was tryna cover my head in public

What does it do for those that a Durag doesn’t

 

[LightSkinYeshua]

Helps protect the hair when you sleep and also if you have product in your hair

What does it do for those that a Durag doesn’t

A durag will fukk up my scalp as it won’t give it space to breathe and it disfigures my braids

Bonnet don’t it jus sits flat

Helps protect the hair when you sleep and also if you have product in your hair

A silk bonnet can protect your braids and your dreads.


Now, wearing in public is a no,no.

I’ve had dreads for 12 years. A durag, skull cap, or dread sock does the same thing.

The same difference between wearing blouse and wearing a shirt.

 

[Apprentice]

The same difference between wearing blouse compared to a shirt.
