Hi! I REALLY need your help on this one, would be so great to get advice on this Smile 
 
Ive been wearing lace front wigs for 2 years now and been wearing indian remy silky straight hair since im caucasian swedish, BUT now I got this Yaki 1b coloured unit from a friend of mine and I wonder is it OK for me as a white girl to rock yaki units??? Or is this frowned upon, like im trying to be something im not? My own hair is pretty coarse, but still, will african-american (or african-swedish in this case, hehe) girls think im some kind of crazy wannabe? Maybe this is a really stupid silly question, and if so please tell meLOLTongueWink but I just want to make sure I dont cause some irritation with this damn (beautiful) unit on my head... I really love the yaki texture, so if this is 'ok' for me to wear id buy more of them for sure!
 
If this is 'ok' for me to wear, is it common, or have you seen other white girls wearing yaki? Whats your personal opinion on this? Do you think it looks stupid? When I see an african american girl with silky straight units I think it looks as great as if she would wear a Yaki unit, but maybe its not as ok the other way around so to speak...?
 
HOPE you can give me some answers!!! Tnx in advance!

Ukranian and Russian hair textures are best for white girls really, but I see no reason why you can't rock a Light Yaki as well.

Truly go with light yaky.  The main thing is choose a color that will compliment your skin, but light yaky would do nicely.  It will also be thicker looking so that is something to consider as well.

Thanks for your opinions ladies! 
I agree that the light Yaki is great too! I actually ended up ordering ONE light yaki and ONE Yaki and I like them both. When im looking in mirrors outside the house and in the house it looks great and natural and im so happy with the fullness and lightness of this texture. Ive even asked my most honest friends (who thinks ive just got a regular weave) what they think, and they are amazed Thumbs%20Up
