where did you answer the question: how does "he" have a poor grasp of the subject matter?

I can see from your previous comments that you are a certified troll and not a good one at that. Cheers

Good day. I just checked and found that I replied your mail. Kindly check

Why stop at natural hair? Why don't you take up from where I stopped?

If my inspiration is natural hair, you as a person can continue on the other topics.

I stated earlier and still saying again, I'm a proper woman. If you're not convinced, I simply don't know.

What is there to over-'think through' about the topic? If the movement ever happen to be, during its course, many issues would be raised and flogged, except you want it to be dead on arrival because you're too immersed in wigs.

Now that you are here, let's talk about all things "fake". There are literally tons of fake products around the world ranging from hairs down to the food that we eat, and the medicine that we take.

If you think critically about this, the one product that is the least invasive or simply put, the one item with the smallest potential to alter a human's body is your current passion - wigs. Every other fake item has that propensity to literally make you sicker.

Wigs are used to promote beauty at least to the wearer. It is safe and poses no danger to the human body. Interestingly, people also use it to address several health concerns, like the lady here who need it for her alopecia or my cancer patients who need it because the drugs have stopped their hair from growing. Wigs are literally the safest "fake" item to exist. Why don't you understand that as a woman? Or at least accept that there are more than one way to be beautiful?

Your passion invokes yet another way for women to hate their body flaws and it is just sad. Again I wish you well in your quest to get this ball rolling in Nigeria. You will need it.

how does that answer my question?

how does "he" have a poor grasp of the subject matter?

I answered your question.. I don't know what you want

The topic says 2022. Obama is old news.. It would be interesting to know who made it to Trump's playlist.

What do you think?

lexy2014:
what makes you think that the OP is a man?

His poor grasp of the subject matter

lexy2014:
what makes you think that the OP is a man?

Good question....

Better still, how can we be certain that the op is not a man posing as a woman?

pocohantas:
Extreme ignorance. They think the afro they see in black themed movies is what the natural hair of most Nigerian women look like? Hahaha!

Some go be like the woman dey mad!

I saw shege in the hands of my natural hair. I spent money. Was always visiting natural hair salons. They are more expensive than the average hairdresser too. I could never leave it without keeping it in a style. Even if it cornrows. I also had to change my cornrows more frequently.

I tried short hair. That one is another money pit. Unlike men that see their barbers at every corner for N1000. Female barbers are high end professionals that the average 100k earning woman cannot afford. My barber was so proud and rude.

Let me not talk about the headache from touching and combing my hair everyday. My face would be red. Even my arms were hurting from always being up to style the hair every morning.

Abeg, they should go look for it on their mother's head. I done buy wig this month after a long time before I die for PanAfrican movement.

😂😂🤣🤣 So proud and rude.. Terrible combo.

Once visited one of the so-called natural hair experts. I was charged 5k just to wash my hair. When i tried haggling, she became rude. I learnt my lesson that day.

Forgot completely about the headaches, it's a story for another day🤣😂. Even my husband hates my natural hair/the afrocentric look as opposed to most men here who love it. Go figure😂

I don't know about the movement but my transition to natural hair was purely due to health related concerns. Apparently, hair relaxers and dyes increase the risk of breast cancers in women. I simply don't want to be a statistic.

I love my wigs. I wish i had tons of them but alas, the good wigs are helluva expensive so i cherish the few good ones that i have.

And why stop at natural hair? The op should expand his inspiration to incoporate natural face, nails, skin, body, food and childbirth. The op has good intentions no doubt. But he didnt think this through, as is the case most times when men think they know women.

YelloweWest:
I have alopecia.

Wearing wigs is a must for me

Some of the comments here smack of ignorance and it is just absolutely shameful. I wear wigs all the time as well due to health related reasons.

Funny thread. I applaud your vision but I doubt that it will take off.

You see, the main reason why women wear wigs is the ease and comfort. It is also cheaper in the long run.

Natural hair, which I have at the moment, is extremely difficult to manage, no matter the products used. Some of these prodcuts are very expensive. The time spent every morning trying to beat it into shape to align with your outfit and the occasion, is not for the faint-hearted. You will most definitely be visiting the salon often which again is an absolute waste of time and money.

Someone mentioned that natural hair shrinks. That is putting it mildly. Not only does it shrink to less than a third of its length, it becomes extremly hard requiring you to apply heat and more products just to straighten it out section by section. This alone can take hours.

If you are graying out, then be ready to apply dyes just to look good. And talking about looking good, not all women look good in their natural hair. In truth, most look unprofessional because again, it is extremely difficult to whip into shape particularly if you have short natural hair or if your long natural hair has shrunk and its texture is rough.

You talk about the whites/chinese looking after their hair to get that sleek, beautiful look. But you forget that most of them have tools/gadgets all of which requires electricity. You are a Nigerian, is this feasible? Are these tools affordable?

I can go on and on but I simply don't have the time. Your vision is noble but like i said earlier, it won't catch on. A lot of factors must be considered beyond creating new high-end local products and competitions for best hair. Good luck

I sincerely can't think of any disadvantage. We have a good number of mothers and their daughters/sons studying medicine at the same time and in the same class. It's all in your mind.

This is just strange. Truly one man's meat is another's venom.

Already, i can see that your waist circumference is increasing. Why will you want to pile on that? Are you not concerned about your metabolic health?

It's inconceivable that a rational being will come along with such an expensive item in a crowded space.

The only plausible reason i can fathom is that he is chasing clout

They never learn

9/10.

Anyone who can cut thin slices of potato and fry it to perfection deserves an award. Well done

I woke up exactly about 6:30pm last Tuesday, my aim is to make a transfer to my other account for withdrawal, because I don't use atm on the main account. But unfortunately for me I transferred the money to an unknown account with a name am not familiar with, how made that mistake was beyond my comprehension, me holding my phone and punching pin them I saw a debited message from my account to an unknown account. I was not myself through out the whole night, in fact I wish I can flog myself, but then maybe I was halluciting during the transfers processed.

This has happened to me before.

Reach out to me. Let's talk

Was expecting to see the Ukrainian president

He is not your friend

nnamdi640:
Your union should push for the motion, is like you guys don't know your right. How will you now survive if your allowances are not paid, you can trigger this motion and let your fellow workers see reasons to this, then the person representing you guys in your union should be made to understand this.

It's been an ongoing battle. It's quite sad

nnamdi640:
Federal workers are entitled to allowances, I have someone working in federal sector and this person testify to this.

You have your so-called one or two persons as proof and yet i am literally surrounded by hundreds of such workers and not one of us has gotten an allowance in years. Stop with the jokes

nnamdi640:
A friend of mine that got state teaching job received her first allowance after six months of working apart from her salary. Your allowances might be delayed doesn't mean it will not be paid, if your union really care about your well-being, they would have start pressuring those incharge.

Key difference is State. We are discussing Federal and there are no allowances
