For naturals who protective style under weaves and wigs, why is it that the Asian straight hair is the hair of choice? What's wrong with wearing fake hair that looks more natural?
I agree with all of this. I remember being on NP back in 2003 when I was natural and a disproportionate number of women on there had post-grad degrees and a lot of debate threads read like thesis papers . Obviously most black women don't have masters/Ph.ds but the majority of black women who had constant internet access back then and were interested in the political/social ramifications of natural hair skewed towards those of higher SES or at least the more educated regardless of income.
Natural hair awareness has trickled down and become more mainstream but it's appeal to the college campus arena is just a reflection of its roots.
I agree but I wonder how many would wear their natural hair to the club?
~I think it is a "this is a who I am" phenomenon.

Yes, I understand that but why can't they wear their natural hair to the club. In fact, that probably would have caught some guys attention by being different. Most of the girls in line had long hair weaves.

fcuk this thread is making my eyes hurt.
can i get the cliff notes on it??
I really cant answer this. I mean I know lots of chicks who are naturals under their weaves too. So just because someone is weaved up doesnt mean they arent natural.
I personally would like to see natural become an epidemic and women going out in droves becoming natural. But I see people of all classes natural, broke to rich, hood to suburbs, video hoe to skripper pole....
I dunno
I feel you op. You should have just called it what it is....LOW income EBT card carrying.....it is weaves, weaves and more weaves for them and natural is NO where in sight. I was in a nail salon and that is exactly what I saw.
