When I see a lady using cowries on her hair,I just feel she is mami .. What's your take? Is it fashion or its literally beyond fashion?
You guys have an opinion about everything. Can't you see and mind your business.

All those gringo did a thorough job, Aswear. They even used Vim to do the brainwash.

As a guy, I sported my cowrie for years.

Too many dudu too mumu these days.

The mumuness is out of this world. We've completely lost our identity.

Wearing cowries have spiritual connotation with the marine. Though many wear it ignorantly.
I know of this marine priestess in my area that have cowries on her dreadlocks. There were several occasions I tried to give her a lift at night but she couldn't enter my car until one night she was stranded. No be person tell am to enter when vehicle has finished on the road.

Leg chain and nose rings make me to hate any girl with that.
Any woman with leg chain is a dog and anyone with nose rings is a pig.

It's fashion, because those are not original cowries it's all plastic.
I don't even give a thought.

Those putting it on their head are not doing it casually as u see it. Some may have an ancestral calling from the gods.
So it all depends on the purpose of the person in question. Don't see it as beatification purpose

Most of those cowries are synthetic. They are not the real ones. So, they are just a mere fashion.

When I see any girl rocking the real traditional cowry, then I know that there may be something attached.
Even 90% of the beads they wear are not the pure traditional beads. Most of them wearing beads cannot even afford to buy the real ones. It's like buying pure gold neckless.
