I don't like weave. I think it's nasty and ugly. I can't imagine a woman wearing someone else's hair on her head. The remnants of someone else's scalp.
Weave would be more acceptable if black women were generally wearing weave that matched their natural hair texture. An afro weave is doable. But most black women are wearing weave that in no way, shape or form matches their hair texture. They make ALL TYPES of excuses for why they do it-"oh, its easier to maintain", "it protects my hair in the winter", "I just like to change my look," etc. Bullsh#t line after bullsh#t line.
I just wish more black women would be honest and say that they don't like their hair. I mean, we already know that's why. Society already knows that's why. There's no logical reason that a person who likes their hair would spend most of their life paying for hair that looks nothing like their own. There is no reason that a person who likes their hair would spend hours having this fake hair sewn into their scalp. There is no reason that a person who likes their hair would not be able to find styles that suit their hair.
I mean, you got black female hair stylists that don't even know how to do black hair. How in the f#ck can you be black and know nothing of black hair?
I've helped several black women go from perms to natural. Ex-girlfriends and my mom as well. They ALWAYS looked better and felt better about their hair.
Personally, I won't date a woman who wears weave. I'm proud of who I am as a person of African descent. And I won't date someone who shows me that she doesn't feel the same way.
Peace
This.
And worse things about weaves? The billions black women are spending on that shyt is going straight to the Asian community (Koreans). They're making a fortune off of black women.
Like you said, afro weaves are doable. Can you imagine how rich the black community would be if black folks made afro weaves a new trend?
