What is the fascination with lace front wigs? I'm not talking about actors/actresses or celebrities, for that matter. I'm speaking about regular, everyday folks. What ever happened to loving your own God-given hair or actually taking the time out to care for your own hair? Is it the pressure from the videos that show the bootylicious women with the flowing hair that leaves us wanting to follow suit? Is it the hair magazines that lie to us time and time again about the how the hair is styled and maintain when it's not even the model/actress' own hair? Is it the men that believe that hair is a woman's beauty but dont understand the day-to-day maintenance of our hair? Is it sheer laziness?
It seems that everyone has the time to shop for the latest trends, have time to make it to the hottest gig or even have the time to take a nice, quiet vacation but don't have the time to make the investment in something that represents you everyday.... the hair that is on your scalp. A quick fix will get you but so far. What happens when the hair has to come out and your left to deal with the damage beneath? Will you be a slave to the beauty supply chains/stores to purchase more and more hair because you developed a scalp disorder?
It in the end, it all adds up and becomes an expensive habit.
I understand that some women do it because of busy lifestyles or they are regular gym fanatics....but you will have to face your hair one day. You will have to love yourself one day. Your going to have to accept what God has given you and work with it. I'm not against the life of "MO HAIR". I'm against the people that are slaves to it. The ones that walk in the salon humble without " it" and walk out a "diva" with "it" on. It scares me when women uses "it" as a false sense of security.
These are just my thoughts and opinions really. No judgement, whatsoever....just curious.
I will be doing hair replacement soon but for the people that have scalp disorders, lupus or cancer-related hair loss. The ones, in my opinion, who really need it. I know that I'm in a field of vanity but my primary focus and passion is a head full of healthy hair, whether relaxed or natural. It pleases my soul.
