Caracta: I don't wear my hair natural because the Nigerian weather isn't good on it. It breaks easily and hurts.

Most Importantly, I CHOOSE to go un-natural because I look tidy and cute when I get my hair done. I don't need to go everywhere with a comb or brush. Its economical and weather-friendly...attractive, protective and easy to maintain. It's not healthy to have your hair unprotected at all times, especially in seasons of Harmattan.

If it's about slave mentality, then why wear clothes and shoes? Afterall, your ancestors never had designer shirts and shoes.

Whoever hates it should humbly take a dive into the Mediterranean sea

Ezibless: It isnt really a matter of inferiority complex to some ladies. I apply relaxer to my hair and also stretch it 'cause it breaks so easily if not braided.
I feel more comfortable on my natural hair...see for yourself-NOT ALL BLACK WOMEN DON'T LOVE THEIR NATURAL HAIR. It just need little handling to make it look presentable

armyofone: Natural hair is difficult to manage.

pDude:
B!tch why do you all say this same shyt? So which hair is not difficult to manage? Ethiopia ladies have thick, stubborn, coarse, long hair yet they don't wear weaves. They wear their God given shyt.
Your defense is bollocks

Trust me, its stressful going natural. I tried the whole natural thing this year, bloody expensive.

B!tch really??, why do you all say this same shyt? So which hair is not difficult to manage? Ethiopia ladies have thick, stubborn, coarse, long hair yet they don't wear weaves. They wear their God given shyt.

OdenigboAroli:

So,its more expensive than Brazilian and Peruvian hair ?
To me,these are nothing more than bunch of excuses used just so they can keep wearing the fake white hair that gives them the self confidence they lack.

Ramon92: accept the fact that most African women including you suffer from a terrible form of low self esteem.. Don't try to make excuses to justify what is obvious.

And does your fact about your ancestors not wearing shoes or designers makes them less human than those you desperately wanna be like??

Whoever isn't proud of his/her heritage should be cast into the Atlantic...

Bolt3: Why don't people say whites have inferiority complex when they tan.

@pDude:- Why do you have to insult a fellow NLer like that ...can't you make your point without using profanity?? ...

Idowuogbo:
Your opinion matters not.

armyofone: pDude, that was so rude of you!!.

I only answered the question that was asked and you had to do that?

OdenigboAroli:

More like you are bereft of what to say.

royalsweetness: I have my natural hair, unrelaxed, yet I refuse to understand people who won't let other people wear their hair the way they need to wear them. Even with all the products, most styles for natural hair would take atleast 3 hours to pull off, and do not last more than two days till you have to style it again (4c hair). If u wanna take a bantu knot out to work, you have to spend hours knotting it the night before, sleep with it, then unknot in the morning b4 work. Not everyone has that kinda time... Having said that, I still think the reason most Nigerian girls don't wear their natural hair is because they don't even know their natural hair. Most times our mothers relax it before we are old enough to know it, then they make you hate undergrowth so much that u can't even imagine your whole hair as undergrowth. I believe every girl should experiment with their natural hair (especially if your mum relaxed it as a kid), most times you end up falling in love with it despite how difficult it can be. But if as a grown woman, you've ever tried the natural hair thing and it just doesn't suit your lifestyle, then please rock on that weave or whatever rocks your boat.

Idowuogbo:
No....more like I can't b asked going back and forth with ya likes.

Caracta:
Many Nigerians are hypocritical. If you want to promote your culture, wear your traditional attire to the office or for interviews. Or do we all suffer from low self-esteem?

Don't just pick the part that suits you. Be faithful in all African culture rules. I mean ALL.
