Ladystewie: Hian! What are you saying?
W hat does insecurity have to do with this?
Black Women don't do it because they hate their nappy hair, or that they want to look like white woman
It's just another beauty 'routine', like make up
And I believe women should do anything that'd make them feel beautiful
At whose expense? smh
Re: African Ladies Spend Over $7billion On Wigs,hair,extensions And Relaxer. by Nobody: 8:56pm On Aug 12, 2014
I don't think it's anyone's business what a lady decides to do with her money
It's also foolish to suggest that it's low self-esteem
And to say black women have 'impoverished intellect'?
Oya, come and 'feed' our intellect
So that we would know better
shikaan: yes u do.. that is why u ppl have impoverished intellects and bleached faces.

Yeah what makes them feel beautiful, that's exactly what I'm saying. Most black women only feel beautiful while wearing fake hair.

This is more than just a beauty routine, it's a way of life. How can you replace your natural hair with a synthetic hair that looks like that of other races, and tell me it just a beauty routine, it's pure insecurity.

Beauty and insecurity are different aspects
A woman could be beautiful and still be insecure
Is it the fact that the weaves look like hair from women of other races that makes you conclude that it's insecurity?

oh pls stop with the insecurity thing already,it's old,stale and baseless. A woman should be allowed to wear her hair however she likes it, natural or artificial it's nobody's buisness. African ladies rock with or without weaves......I love my fellow African women kiss kiss

And how much do white women spend on anti-aging cream? Cosmetics? Tanning?



Abegi.....stop using this as a means to bash African women.


Europeans and Americans treat their women with class. We are here bashing and degrading them.

We are forgetting that women are our other half of the population.

In this context, they are related. Insecurity isn't limited to ugly women, a beautiful woman can feel insecure because she feels she isn't beautiful. The opinion of others don't matter, what matters is what she feels.

Same applies to black women, often times I say a black woman adorning her natural hair looks beautiful, but they don't agree with this.

Why must black women buy fake hair which looks like that of other races, what message does that send? These days you see a black woman confidently wearing a straightened blonde weave, accepting compliments with smiles on their faces.

Don't you suddenly realise it's all fake? I don't get how I can wear a Caucasian hair or put on a Caucasian mask on my face and feel confident.

Nearby, three customers – one in a hijab – wait for a turn to spend several hours and $40 to have their hair done, a hefty sum in a country where many
live on less than $2 a day

And when would all these nonsense western news outlets stop all the bullshit about Nigerians living on less than $1 and $2. Trying to make us look like poverty ridden sets of people.

You're either in denial or just deceiving yourself. Its not stale, it can never be stale as its a clear and ongoing issue with black women.

You can choose to accept or not but the realities are undeniable.
