You're right. Many of them go from wig to wig to wig to wig to wig
That is what I am saying. How do you judge someone from a look that changes from day to day, week to week, month to month?

BW are defensive about weave because it's a form of cultural expression. Frequently changing hairstyles and hair colors is like changing an outfit for a BW and a part of AA culture. Weave is easier to change that doing all sorts of processes to your hair when you want a different look.
BW do not view their hair like other women do. So when people saying BW shouldn't wear their hair in any other way or color than it grows out of their head it's saying that BW need to take on the habits and views of none Black women in order to prove them are okay with themselves.
"Becky, Maria, Sun Lee does wear weave" ie those women must love themselves and you must hate your self because you as a BW don't express the same mentality about hair. Basically it's a backhanded way to say be like Becky instead of seeing that we just have different cultural practices.
The funny thing is none BW are starting to imitate the habits of BW when it comes to hair. People from the outside see it for it is but BP will sit around and shyt on their own people while other cultures are dying to imitate the same shyt.
I swear people just say shyt but you can always tell when there is no really thought about it. How do you excuse cacs and shyt on your people in one sentence and then consider it some sort of Black love shyt?
I love that bytch. She’s gonna be in the next hidden colors 5.
. A community to supposed to be a place that protects you. Not the place who knows you best and therefore knows exactly where to stick the knife for maximum effect.
Dark skinned girls with blond weave is some of the most atrocious shyt I've seen. It's the equivalent to white ppl with cornrows
Just don’t expect black men to agree with it.
White women don't have texture in their hair....fuk are you talking about??! That straight dog haired white people have is not texture..they have to do all types of rollers, curlers, gel, mousse , etc to put texture into that limp shyt, so by your own argument, they are imitating us.White girls wearing extensions is a false equivalency. They are putting their own texture of hair onto their head. I actually have more questions, but I can see this thread is going to hell in hand basket real quick. I still don’t get why black women wear weave
Horse hair??! I don't think wigs have been made with horse hair since the early 1900's.A black woman with a blonde weave is wearing dyed horse hair to emulate the hair of white women.

The problem is that she's comparing the changing of racial identity to hairstyles. The concept of a white woman changing her appearance for the sake of cultural appropriation is not the same as hairstyle preferences. There's a major difference between representation (actually being part of the race, identity and culture) and perception (how people not part of that race interpret it to be) . White women and others want the benefits to look like us, imitate our style but none of the effort, experiences, work and struggle. The same can't be said of us.
The same reasoning applies to blackface. It is the same racial connotation because of the historical aspects and oppression. Majority of black women are not out here wearing blond weaves and colored contacts. That's 80% is so overly exaggerated ...she's a damn liar bc 8/10 of us are not out here wearing blond weaves. Rarely do I see that. As far as weaves overall, - that's a personal preference not a characterization.
