One problem that has alys been with we africans is that we don't always appreciate what we have we always believe that what have be given by God is infrior to what others have. I just saw this article on dailymail showing pfotographs of nigerian hairstyles then by J.D. Okhai Ojeikere.

The photographer spent the Sixties and Seventies documenting the hairstyles of the women he encountered in his native Nigeria. He snapped over 1,000 photos of these complex coiffures, from subjects he found on the streets, in offices, and at wedding celebrations.

Those days that people celebrate our black and beautiful culture are gone. Everything about our women now are nothing to write home about;
*fake skin colour; most naija babes wan yellow like Sexkillz by fire by force.
*fake hair; if some girls design their head with Brazilian hair you go think say nah gabbage dem carry for head.
*fake bossom; i even read on NL yesteday that one bossom implant bursted, padded bra never do them.
*fake nails; this is d reason y some naija babes cannot give you mouth action without sratching ur balls.
*fake nyashh; hope one buttt no go burst like dat boobb someday
*fake accent; hmmm...... Make i no even talk dis one.
*fake food; "if you marry most naija ladies especially S/W ladies na concotion rice or noodles she go take kill you" just few naija babes fit pound yam.
Looking at those natural well plaited hair especially dat no3 wey be like 2face African queen, i swear! My gbola don dey rise.

I like the second one. Honestly, I think these styles are very creative. I'm not sure I would rock the first one but they are def creative.

My deeper-life sisters still live in the 60s

The shuku with the cone is so fine I will definitely do it. Some of the styles would be very fashionable for deeper life convention.
