Ummm..no. In the Bible, it says that Jesus had hair similar to sheep's wool.

Adam and Eve were African..they most likely had kinky/curly/coily hair.

Anyway, why hasn't this been locked yet? LoL.

Ummm. Looking back at the original post, I'm pretty sure curious made her decision 4 long years ago.

She posted 11-Dec-2001. It's kinda funny we're still giving her advice and talking about it.

What did you finally decide to do Curious?

you guyz are making a big deal out of nothing..EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN PERSONALITY....whether caucasians have blonde hair and have it straight... and african american's have black hair and wear it in weaves braids etc..WHAT DOES IT MATTER HAIR IS HAIR.....leave it alone..if she wants to get her hair done so be it....just b.c a person is a different color...gender it doesnt matter what her hair looks like as long as the person getting it done likes it. AS FOR YOU PIXIE look at your hair in the pic...it's down striaght kind of does that mean you took it from us.. b.c i bet ADAM AND EVE'S HAIR WERE STRAIGHT AND I BET EVE'S HAIR WAS DOWN or yet look at when jesus was on the cross...his hair was long...

That's why I kind of put Africans/Egyptians.And what I said is not ridiculous it is just a matter of opinion just like what you said.

I guess I would call it being culturally selfish.

I'm black and I don't believe it to be a color thing. I think it's just a bunch of hateful people who don't want people outside of their culture, adopting parts of it which they find desirable.

Not a big deal, but it is a big deal (the whole color thing..no one being white/black/yellow/red).. I just want people to use a little common sense, LoL.

No offense taken..I suppose ;).

This topic can be closed now. Although it shouldn't have been posted in the first place..ya know?

This topic is really stupid. Who cares it's her hair. She's the one who has to live with it. If you don't like to see different people adopting other's culture, ignore it.

If you are approached for experimenting elements of another's culture, ignore them, they have issues.

Some people look good with braids some don't, black and white. Let that person decide for theirself.

I think it was a very unecessary question for her to ask. It would be in her best interest to try to make independent decisions on how she wants the world to see her as a person.

Honestly, on most white girls that I see with braids...I don't like it. But there are some white girls in my college that I have seen totally pull it off...and they looked really pretty. Its all in who you are and your personality/looks.


You've seen white people? People the color of my socks? Interesting.


Don't you see that your being just as immature as the rest? I'm not judging people by there color. I'm sorry...did you want me to say caucasion? Fine...if that is more appropriate then I will say that. But I think alot of people would get offended if I went around saying that african american girl as opposed to "black girl" because they would think I was being a smart ass. I'm sorry if I offended anyone.

....Oh and another thing... I AM WHITE....as if I was trying to offend people of my race!

Alright..that was utter and complete ridiculousness. Again, no one is white. No matter what kind of hair you have, have the style that you want.

I think that if a person feels happy and secure with his or her self then he/she will not waste their time criticizing others.

im sorry to let u know this last time i checked black and white are colors not attitudes. You cant tell people be white and be black there is no real way to act either way just act yourself and hairstyles do not determine your race cause if that was the case black people shouldnt even have perms but they were made to be more accepted by white. And like G u need to do research all nationalites wore braids and weaves before america even began so you need a reality check
