The fact remains, women have no good reason to wear weaves.

I don't know, probably (any hypothetical is possible). I can simply go by the fact that it's currently available and isn't all that popular.

I just want to know why yall don't ask why black women are trying to look asian, indian, or brazilian when that is the look they are going after.

link me to where white folks are selling their hair. pretty sure the majority of hair packs sold in US come from overseas.

most blks look creepy with blonde hair to me. especially when it's someone of the darker variety. i understand the dilemma black women go through with wanting to style their hair like other races but lets look at the end results. i'd be willing to bet a majority of black women (over 50%) would prefer to have hair like asap rocky, omarion when he had hair, snoop, etc over their own hair. so i'm asking wouldn't black girls rather stick with the same 2-3 hair styles so their hair grows long and healthy? or would they rather have the option to weave, perm, dye, whatever their hair all day every day only for them to have to cut it off at 30 and start over from scratch

Some women don't care about long hair. I know my mom doesn't. She doesn't dye it or anything, but she purposely keeps it short. Because I do care about length, I do keep the same few hair styles. That gets very old/boring though.

This debate would have been long over if the black women in here admitted the "self-hate" angle.

That's just the truth...embrace it and let's call it a night!!!! dammit!

some don't care about length, but the majority of women care or they wouldn't be wearing 18" weave in the first place

i've only heard one weave wearer admit she wears weave out of self hatred and it was on youtube i had to save the video to my harddrive i was so stunned.

Just google slavic extensions or russian extension hair. White women mostly buy this type of hair because it blends better with their texture.

I think in this video a few of them talk about the issues with finding the right texture (and how someone of them have been unknowingly buying horse/animal hair).

The majority of the women I see aren't wearing 18" of weave.

are you retarded?

No, that would be the idiots who really think they are fooling Black women by trying to convince us Black men's hair falls into waves naturally. Black men's hair grows up and out just like BW's does but here y'all are trying to convince me that is not the case. Its hilarious lol

BM flatten and plaster their hair to their heads to appear like they have Indian in their bloodline when they don't. Yes, it is biracial/mixed Black men's whose hair sits like that naturally, NOT BM'S. Anyone who isn't a liar knows that Black men of majorly African descent do not have hair that falls that way on their head without work, thus the reason why there are youtube videos, forums, and the like detailing to Black men how they can get that wavy conk type look.

Keep telling me I'm lying and Black men are born with waves and only need a brush and water to get them like I didn't grow up with brothers, a Black father, Black cousins and uncles, and have a Black fiancé now though

Yes, yes she is. It's a wonder she can even use a computer.

Keep attacking me, y'all don't realize how little it matters to me based on the way y'all collectively bash BW. Honestly I think any Black woman who would want to be viewed highly by you lot would need to be insane and/or have tragically low self esteem. And all that said, none of you have been able to refute a thing I've said. Because you KNOW its true

so i guess i had to clarify that i'm talking about American white women? pretty sure black girls don't grow up idolizing russian women in the media. we've already agreed black girls do this because of the promotion of euro beauty and the lack of promotion of ebony beauty.

 

[PartyHeart]

so let me ask, are white men natural? because it seems like black men are being placed into a box where we can't style our hair at all.

Black women feel the same way. As I said I don't mess with weave, but I understand why some women do it especially to transition back to natural hair from relaxed hair.

And I don't really care what white men are but in the context of this conversation YES. As are Asian/Hispanic/etc men because they grow their hair out where you can actually see the texture and style it that way. They don't cut it down to where the texture is no longer visible or there is no more hair period.

Yeah. Idk what you are talking about. You asked for links of white people selling hair and I showed you. That the same stuff that gets imported here for American white women. Russian women are white (it's all eurocentric so I don't understand the point you are trying to make).

Again, black women are emulating Indians, Asians, and Brazilians with their weave (much of which still has texture unlike white women hair)...even you acknowledged that with your Malaysian comment. Just like they order Indian Remy offline they can order that slavic hair too and don't.

okay so, once again, to clarify -- because this some crazy black women bullshyt. white men (and other races of men) are natural even though most cut their hair, put holding gels and mousses in their hair.

however, black men aren't natural when they cut their hair, put moisturizers, oils in it, then apply a brush. am i getting this correctly? because i've seen videos of cacs trying to get waves and it's just... food for the soul. either way, most black men dont rock waves. it's one of many hair styles you'll catch on us but most prefer to keep it low as it's professional.

What's unprofessional about a short afro?

you're still picking an impoverished country to make your hair argument. when we're talking about american white women, the same american white women many black girls grew up idolizing. they are not selling their hair, which was my pt.

we've already established black girls wouldn't buy indian, asian, brazilian hair if their own hair was promoted in the media. we've ALREADY ESTABLISHED THIS! it is not the goddamn indian woman getting all the promotion in tv, movies, modelling that has black women feeling their own hair is not good enough. it's not the indian woman black women complain so goddamn much is taking their men. so why do you keep saying y'all are emulating asians when cacs are the ones got you feeling like it's necessary to purchase hair from foreign sources?
