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

I wonder if snoop dogg or ASAP rocky ever needed protective styles

You act like their is hair long and full. That limp mess is not appealing and doesn't appear to grow past a certain length.

You CAN NOT extrapolate beyond what the data show (that STATS 101). Misusing stats to suit your argument only works on the type of people who watch Fox News. There is a broad range of hair care products that women buy that contribute to the industry.

go fix your hair hat...c00n.

But I would think introducing a foreign object should surely be the last option?

I think whatever works for that person should be the first option, whether it's weave, braids, twists, buns. etc

Not a one chemical in my head, mr. cheerleader.

I wish ghosts were real so you could be haunted by the previous owner of your hair.

They usually wear braids, that's a protective style.

Only woman in this thread that has shown some logic on the weave epidemic is @SouthernBelle , the rest of the women's arguments are fukkin illogical. Reminds me of the black male privilege thread

Braids on a woman is sexy though. Couldn't some two strand twist also work?

Yes, braids can be nice and 2 strand twists are a protective style BUT some women have hair A.D.D. SOME women like to change styles as often as they change clothes and that is where weaves come in. You can do a lot of styling to it while still maintaining healthy hair. Again, this is SOME women's reasoning behind weave. Not all.

Twist and braids become old after a while. Sometimes change is necessary.

No I am a statistician. I do academic research on education (that's very well known around these parts and couple people on the coli with my real name can very easily verify with a simple google search). You aren't very bright if you think anecdotal evidence like "look outside" means anything. The world is not your back yard sweetie.

Again, yall started the what white women wouldn't do argument and got mad when I could step up the the challenge.

No I am Batman. I saved Gothom City from The Joker (that is very well known around the WORLD with my real name Bruce Wayne... (damn, i gave up my identity ) with a quick Google search). You see how easy that was.

Like i said, you not gone go out in the streets and see this.... Or a elementary school filled with white children and see weaves, or Afros.

Again, reverse-psychology don't work on me. You lost child, you might as well go back logged off, ma'am.

My mom and pretty much all of the women in my family have gone natural

It looks better for black women to sport their natural hair.

Some of you guys need to see threads like this and see how beautiful your natural hair can be:

They perm and press their shyt I guess they hate themselves too

 

[PartyHeart]

Snoop's hair is permed and/or texturized at all times.

According to Black men, he loves his natural Black hair simply because it isn't a weave

I think I've had enough stupidity for the day/week.

They perm and press their shyt I guess they hate themselves too

Nope, according to coli men that's a-okay as long as its not a weave

Looks decent to me

The numbers on spending are disproportionate, especially when you take population size into account. That difference has to be accounted for somewhere, and the most likely thing would be weaves, especially with how expensive they can be.

Again, there are no surveys being done on who does and doesn't wear weaves, all we can do is estimate and I'll take the high number as opposed to the low when it comes to what percentage of black women wear weaves.

Yes. We can all agree that it is disproportionate. However, without a break down of the type of products being purchased (that be very easy to do and would NOT require a survey) we can not agree on what products were bought. Even if we do know what products were bought, we can not say what percentage of black woman bought what products.

That goes to back to Chris.B saying that 70% of black women have OOW when the stat clearly stated that 70% of children were born out of wedlock (which says nothing about the number of mothers they were born to or whether mixed race black children with a white mother were recorded as a "black birth").

Purposely misusing stats is so
