I even hate when little girls have tons of beads in their braids. Why?
What, lace fronts tend to cause traction alopecia. They are absolutely too young, to be using that glue on their edges.Just because a younger generation does something differently does not mean it's wrong. When I was in high school black and white girls were wearing weaves and extensions. What is the difference between wearing a wig and a weave?
Wow these are children, just WOW...this is incredibly sad and embarrassing as a race of ppl. This is why I laugh my ass off @ the false equivalency that so many BW like to use of: "bUt wHiTe w0mEn weAr weAvEs juSt aS mUch As BW".I'm a teacher and we had 10 high schoolers participate in a volunteer event at our school. It broke my heart to see ALL 6 of the black girls wearing ill-fitting lace fronts and bat-wing eyelashes. The other 4 girls were white. It just didn't make any sense that not ONE of the girls were wearing their own hair.
I don’t either I wore my hair pressed out sometimes colored weave other times braids. There is no better time in your life to experiment with trends then when your a teenager. Once your in college you slowly start conforming for internships, interviews etc. Let them babies have fun with their hair and perfecting it.
They are way more talented then I ever was that braid, can lay a wig, lay they’re baby hairs. I’ve been natural almost 13 years and I don’t know why people won’t admit it’s way more maintenance. I’d rather they wear wigs then flat iron everyday or perm their hair. Different strokes though I wore my natural hair and weave in high school.Well i didn't wear weave until I got to college. I kept a cute flat iron. Those babies that are covering up their natural hair will grow up to hate their hair like most women that don't want to admit they hate their hair. Young girls should learn how to moisturize and style their natural hair. That's just my opinion
Everything comes with maintenance even weave. I think that's a quick cop out if you're not maintaining your hair under the weave thats just pure laziness,,. honestly people don't like natural hair styles, individuals, and defining curls. I've been natural almost 5 yrs. And have not had heat on my hair at all, my hair is the healthiest its ever been.They are way more talented then I ever was that braid, can lay a wig, lay they’re baby hairs.

Please explain? We didn't walk around looking like IG circus clowns all day everyday. U couldn't even tell when we were wearing weave unless it was a big updo...and u permed your own hair not a wig so......Lacefronts, are just the updated version of getting a perm in the 90's.
THIS. The bar is lowered in every single category and being gaudy in excess is the new normal. If you say something about it, you’re the problem.Ppl are really brainwashed and dumb down now it’s sad.
It's tacky. I personally wouldn't walk around wearing someone else's hair unless it is a protective style like braids. If I had a 14 year old kid, I wouldn't let her walk around in a colored wig. Until she becomes an adult and can make that choice on her own.I’m sorry but it’s crazy to me how many BABIES I see wearing unrealistic ass lace fronts! Now if you’re grown do you! But there is something so unsettling about girls who are BARELY teens only wanting to be seen in some colorful 24 inch lace front. I can understand if it’s a special occasion but everyday?? Come on now. Why would any parent allow a 14 year old wear a lace front 24/7? You’re not even giving them a chance to enjoy their natural hair. Call me old school but this sh!t is crazy. The most my ass was allowed to get was a clip in or two and this was only allowed when I was like 17!
Would you allow your 14 year old wear lace fronts everyday? If not what age?
It's sad how much woman of color invest into other people's hair texture instead of their own.Lace fronts are the new relaxer. They get to have desirable hair at the end of the day.
Hey. Shoutout to The Land! Great times were had at Leo's Casino.hmmmm...I dunno....back in the 70's, we went downtown on the reg to snatch up the LATEST in afro wigs if you didn't have enough "har" to make the "biggest fro", which was most fashionable back in our day...and the afro puffs was ALL the rage as well...they just clipped on...
don't believe me? turn on an old ep of Soul Train and you'll see...
and that was when I was 13-14....I'm 61 now...
when we got to high school, we wore "chignons", and/or fixed up a quick "french twist" on top of our heads which I see is back in "vog-gue" now....
a weave was unheard of cuz it was unaffordable, and Miz Christine was the only one in town doing them for 200 bucks, cuz we always heard the commercials on WJMO, but never knew anybody who actually HAD it done....
she worked with basically entertainers anyhow when they came to Leo's Casino....i.e. Diana Ross, Vandellas. etc....
just givin' some history here...that's all....
Same with relaxers. They ruined my hair so I stopped getting them and still to this day my mom and aunts swear I need to get another one and don’t understand why I don’tSelf hate passed down from the mother.
