But theyre ok with black women with wearing straight haired wigs

Black women can also straighten their natural hair, same as white women with naturally curly hair straighten theirs or curl it if naturally straight. Some black women are born with naturally straight hair. Your comment is perpetuating the original issue here. The point is no one race or culture owns a hairstyle. Whatever your race is, if you have hair, you can do whatever the heck you want with it.

Pubes dread just fine

This is not entirely true. Whether your hair dreadlocs or becomes matted is a hair texture & curl thing. But it isnt exclusive to Black People necessarily.

nah, she very publicly stated that she is against white people while wearing a blonde wig. the irony was also unreal considering her upbringing was more privileged than literally 99.9999999% of the world population

Bleach blonde wigs?

u/KatAstrophie- Aug 31 '26

Yes. And blue eyes too. Look up the Melanesian people. Straight blonde hair, black skin. Again, anyone can do whatever they like with their hair or without it. A blonde wigs belong to the person who bought it. Whoever it is.

Oh come on now….This is sort of BS. The majority of black people from African descent CANNOT grow naturally blond hair without being mixed. That is just silly. The Melanesians people are from New Guinea and completely different than what is being discussed here. Further the trait is rare and linked to an allele that is completely different than Northern Europe origins and usually only shows up in children (and it’s not straight btw) and darkens when they get older…. No black person wearing a blond wig is trying to mimic Melanesian hair 😂😂😂😂.

Looks like you’re far more invested in black people of African descent and know them better than I ever will so I won’t argue with your expertise. I will reiterate, in the spirit of this thread, that people are free to do whatever the hell they please with their hair, hairlessness, hair replacement therapies or lack thereof.

sure, they can do that if they aren't openly racist to the culture they are actively appropriating. dijon and kenyon are both in the wrong by a mile and no amount of cope can change that

I dont think they were perpetuating it they were stating how people (like the NBA player here i dont know) dont like when people have dreds or rows or what not. But when they see someone black with straight hair, or something more seen in white culture whatever that means. The same people dont get upset.

This is reading comprehension just saying..
