Durags are becoming some kind of fashion thing in 2019.

[Scuti]

Its try-hard shyt, but unless you actually have waves or locs, its clout-chasing with no real purpose.

When were people clowned for wearing du rags and timbs?

Damn, I hate having to dap you but these boys exposing themselves

It’s clear y’all dont be around black people

You were a weirdo if you DIDNT wear a Durag when I was in school

 

[UberEatsDriver]

This is facts.

Also don't forget the taper fade afro

This made everybody give up on waves. This was the most popular hairstyle for the past 4 or 5 years

That’s a fact. I’ll speak on my city. American and American raised New Yorkers never adapted the dread wave instead they skipped it and went straight to this one.

Durags dropped in popularity around 2010-17.

I remember dudes getting called a bum for wearing them outside.

Might be some truth to this cause New Yorkers never stopped wearing du rags and I would see slick comments on the world star hip hop vids.

But everything old comes back with a twist.

Nobody wasn’t rocking those velvet du rags back then.

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

I used to wear one with my linen shirt to church

 

[MischievousMonkey]

Really??

Yeah

 

[benjamin]

my durag is rocked in the house and house only and the flap is never out smh...

 

[Kski]

I only started rocking durags when I got dreads.

 

[EndDomination]

It was the head gear our peoples rocked on plantations. Crazy ain't it?


Even the code of the head nod goes back til then. It was basically a way of keeping track of all the brehs/brehettes in case some shyt happened to them.

I assumed headwraps and stocking caps were the go to, until someone could get to a sowing machine.

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

Never thought Id see non blacks n black women in durags I’m officially

Non black getting pressed on the set

 

[Super Ramon]

who invented durags (serious)

Durante Ragson

 

[Scustin Bieburr]

360's might be all the way back

They never left

 

[Oatmeal]

I only wore durags when I was rocking braids to keep them fresh. Like 15 years ago

Even then the fitted New Era was over it and the flap was NEVER out


Dudes would clown you if you had the flap out, that was a cluck look. Only dudes that was flap outs were at the corner liquor store asking for beer money

White/Non-Black people stay dikkriding
