Ok, I have two friends who are completely natural, but you'd never know. They both wear extensions at ALL times and I've only see their natural hair on few occasions over the years. To each her own on all that good stuff, but sometimes I wonder what is the point of going natural if you NEVER show it, if you never rock your fro etc. Did you really embrace your natural hair if it's always hidden? I've had this discusiion with them numerous times esp. since I've become a natural. These are a combined list of reasons the reasons I hear:
-they are growing their hair out (one friend in particular has about apl hair when stretched, I'm not sure I buy that excuse)
-weaves are less damaging on natural hair and she loves weaves
-she doesn't attract men when she wears her natural hair
-doesn't know how to style her natural hair
I have no problem with extensions, but I do think it's strange when you NEVER wear your own hair. Just some thoughts....
