    It is definitely policing when you are worried about whaat a GROWN AZZ woman chooses to do with HER head.
    Just sip YOUR own water and mind your OWN business.
    This is coming from someone who is darkskin and wears locs now.
    There is NO WAY. I would waste MY energy worried about how some stranger wears THEIR hair.
    It’s 2024 and black women always talking about har is very played out and tiresome.
    The natural hair movement has been out since 2000 (with websites like Nappturality and Longhaircare forum) so honestly none of your topics are new under the sun. So if black women want to continue wear wigs, braids….LET THEM, ITS THEIR HAIR!!! Geesh.
    It’s THEIR choice.
    YOU have the same choice.
    I understand empowerment but trying to tear those women down who choose to wear their hair a way you don’t like…..is not it.
    There are just more important topics we could be focused on.
    Maybe this is just for views, i get it 😂😂

      They’re out here fighting for the wigs . I almost think it’s a hater of BW that posted that comment. Surely it can’t be a BW because she’s so caught up in BW continuing being mocked and laughed at because of our bald heads by the same South Eastern Asian women she seeks validation from when our lives and theirs do not converge at all.
      She fails to understand the spiritual, racial and economic ramifications of the continuation of wig wearing by BW ,that goes against our phenotypes and losing our pretty privilege.She’s so sad I want to cry but we’re going to have to leave such people behind and soldier on likeminded BW.

    It make no sense to wear a protective style 90% of the time when you are young and have healthy hair. Wear your own healthy hair while you are young and wait until your hair is thinning in old age before you become a slave to the wig. Just my honest opinion.

    These wigs and weaves have seriously made us delusional.
    1. We look better our own hair. How can the hair that grows out of your scalp not look good on you/be right for you??? Seems like we’re the only ones that have this problem right? All of us look better with full, thick healthy curls & coils rather than a stiff wig lace showing and hard edges. Y’all would rather look like a bad imitation that actually take care of what you’re born with.
    2. In 95% of cases nobody believes the straight/wavy wig is ours. Even if it looks good or realistic. “It looks good for a wig” is the most you’ll get. So trying to find the finest lace or laying the edges perfectly or spending $400…it’s still gonna be perceived as a decent looking wig. Not “wow she has such beautiful hair. I’m jealous ” Which is what all of us want right? Everyone just perceives it as a knock off of other women’s beauty bc why are we spending hundred to mimic the texture of others…who don’t do the same for us? Hmm?
    And 3. With some time and patience, yall could’ve already had the HEALTHY waist length hair of your dreams in a few years. 5-6 max if you practiced good length retention. Instead of taking out a small loan every time you need a wig. A full set of natural hair products will set you back maybe $100-$200 a year…but it’s a tiny fraction of the price of constantly buying these new wigs that are ruining your hair and hiding your true beauty.

    I agree with you girlie! For some, wearing wigs/weaves/braids has become less about fun, but rather more about being “acceptable” or only feeling “pretty” in these and as a result covering up there God-given beautiful hair; mostly due to a multitude of reasons. We do have the most unique hair, and we’ve been taught directly or indirectly that it just wasn’t acceptable. Yet, detaching from this lie has been a true blessing for me, so I am thankful for your channel! For years I would get braids back to back (while only letting my hair breathe for a week). Just a few months ago, I begin wearing my natural hair (in mini twists, out or in mini braids, etc.) it was challenging at first, I wanted to throw in braids again any chance I got; yet prayer and asking God to help me see myself as He does really helped. I do pray for other black women, that they would too embrace what they were given. For the ones who do cleave to weaves/braids/wigs/relaxers, I do hope they are informed of the risks that are associated with them. Thanks for making the content you do. We are beautiful too, I’m a firmer believer in trusting that God doesn’t make any mistakes; and He sure didn’t with our hair 💜🤍😊

      ​@@ChocolateSquadChannel as a fellow SAn, yes.
      She's lying too, yes MOST SAn women wear either braids, short hair or cute natural afros. As of lately (maybe 2017-2024), we have seen a rise in IG models and "baddie aesthetic" in which we are being pressured into wearing weaves.
      I'm not a groupie or club girl but I've heard stories from other girls were they wanted to wear their natural hair to the club or vacation and been told "o ya phi o ngana frontal" which translates to "where are you going when you don't have a frontal (lace front weave". The IG baddies are promoting this weird "boujee" lifestyle of expensive weaves and makeup and more and more girls are starting to feel pressured into wearing weaves. A few years back, in SA you wouldn't have seen that many straight weaves on social media and real life.
      These weave girls love to act like the fake hair makes them more expensive and glamorous. It's almost a classism thing because a lot of girls dont wear the Brazilian wigs and when you dont have a wig you're seen as poor or less than.
      The "slay queen" mentality is taking over and slowly natural hair is dying 😭

    As a South African young woman who knows that there are a lot of schools where relaxed hair is the norm while dreadlocks are not allowed, where a majority of people in some townships don't consider their hair "done" unless a girl's hair is relaxed and a boy's hair is cut, where the default hairstyle for important events like university graduations seem to be lace front wigs (or at least braids or cornrows WITH EXTENSIONS) for a large number of people, and people still believe that "black people's hair can't grow long" and "an afro is hard and uncombable", we need these conversations. Hiding or altering afro hair is not just for fun, it's the only way some people know how to make themselves feel good and confident. And it's not just an individual's struggle, it's shared by a large number of people. Mindsets like that of Miss Power Ranger over there are some of the most difficult challenges we face, slowing down the progress of getting more and more South African black women and girls to embrace their afro hair.

    The wig ladies are at it again. At this point we also dont care. With this inflation I wish them good luck with the wig obsession. If the wig ladies decide to wear wigs then please for the love of god: wear something that resemble your features. The other day I had a date with a white man and we saw a black girl passing by with long red hair. Me and him looked at each other and just shook our heads. Yes it’s embarrassing and yes we have the right to call it out. This is why the “exoticlulu” are claiming that we are jealous of them. We keep confirming this by wearing their textures

    I was guilty of the back to back braids like a day in between. I stopped relaxing in 2017 and my hair was so damaged from it I thought braids will repair and regrow and they yes did help but since learning even more about the toxic synthetic hair I've since stopped braids in Feb. Now only wearing two strand twists and twist outs no extension or added hair until i learn my natural hair. It is SO empowering to wear my own hair now. I get compliments that no one even gave wearning non natural hairstyles LOL.

Before I went natural I didn’t like my hair out for nothing, the weird thing is I always felt insecure while wearing the wigs or hair ponytails. But now I have my confidence in myself and not worried if the wigs look’s good or if it matches my texture. It just feels better to wear my own hair. So keep up the good work love on helping women to discover their truth . It’s only hair” it’s just for fun. It’s time to unpack that narrative.

    We can do our hair anyway we want but why can't we wear our hair that is indigenous to our genotype/phenotypes. Non-black women wear hairpieces extensions, etc., but it is usually in the same texture as their hair.
    I like wearing latch hook style, but they hear that I use is similar in texture to my own hair here that is typical of black American women. I have had people question why I use kink your hair thin hair that is my texture. I like the thicker kinkier hair , but it should not be considered as bad here which I do not. Only thing is this more offensive to me when this comes from people who are American blacks are blacks from other countries who like to have their hair straight.
    Some people have been braiding their hair so tight they do not realize that their hairline is receiving. I do not have to call my hair for almost 2 months when I wear latch, hook, style, but people think it's my natural hair because it is the texture most black American women .
    I just cut my hair down to 1 1/2 inches
