Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

u guys ave urselves quite a collection And honestly I,m not a coveteous person. I luv the earings and bracelets with charms. I av some gold pieces but with what i just saw i,n going to try out those nice pieces of accessories but my prob is where to get them and how to know the original from the fake cos here in Nigeria anything goes. the ones i see are 2 common and not as unique as the ones i saw on the pixes.Can u hook me up plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?

~Maybe you should ask around & Find out what boutique buys from London,that will prolly be your best chance of getting a variety of selection! However you have to bear in mind that all Fashion,Costume Jewellery's are likely to change  colour depending on the heat of where you're located . . so the ones you think might be fake are no differnt from the ones you might buy expensive or f rom a reputable boutique!While on holiday back home,the heat made quite a few of my Fashion Jewellery peel or change colour!

~I've got tons of links of websites were i buy my collection from . . some are much cheaper from flee markets ^{they fell off the back of the truck} . . here are a couple of links . .will be posting more

Several years ago I would have answered the weave question with a simple, "You know, it's only hair. As long as it looks good, why should it matter? Natural hair is harder for some ladies to manage, is all" I wouldn't have cared. A few observations have changed my thoughts.

Thing is, black women say that weaves are only fashion choices when a majority of them simply hate their natural hair. If an anonymous poll was set up to ask these women if they thought their own natural hair was ugly on them, a majority would answer in the affirmative. Let's be honest.

I tried growing out my natural hair years ago and got serious flack for it from friends and family. I succumbed to the pressure, got a hair relaxer, and regretted it. I have nothing against weaves and extensions in and of themselves, but when getting weaves and all stems from this, I rethink. I mean, someone on NL likened relaxing and covering natural hair to personal hygiene ( similar to shaving armpits, etc) - I think it was in a thread similar to this. WTF?

I don't put the blame on solely women. Black guys don't like afro hair on women either (they could make do with relaxed hair but the weavalicious chick gets all the phone numbers). They always yap about how natural hair is the most desireable on women and how "fake" girls are these days, but when you ask them to name the sexiest celebrities, they'll say: Naomi Campbell, Tyra Banks, Halle Berry, Sanaa Lathan, Gabrielle Union, etc. And, pray tell, how are they fashionably similar? You got it! I mean, a male poster confirmed it himself, 100% agreeing with the practice and saying that women wear extensions to please men (and implying that men are displeased with the natural look).
