Hi Ladies!
I've been getting a lot of “hair-tude”, BLATANT stares, and even hair tosses (hair tosses have been mainly from other weave wearers that only have maybe a few pieces in between their natural hair) since all the recent popularity of natural hair and "good hair" vs. weave discussions by celebrities.
Are there any other weave wearers (as a protective style of course) that are experiencing this as of late? Does it influence your protective style choice?
I get DAILY, looks, comments, stares, etc. but yesterdays "Whoa that’s a lot of weave!" comment stood out because it was blatant, outright, and the sister (coworker) was a bit crass – granted, she did not know I could hear her. She was walking by a glass conference room that I was in, and she was with a male coworker.
My immediate advice (to myself) is not to let these events steer me away from my protective styling, especially, since I see massive amounts of retention in a wig verses other styles (*side note*I do not have a relaxer). Thoughts?
PICS of my protective style are below
