Extensions
There have been many questions asked over the years as to why is it that African-American women wear weaves and extensions as opposed to their natural hair. Well, some would speculate that it is because they have been preconditioned to see long and straight hair as more attractive and not their natural hair.
This of course is wrong, they have beautiful, thick hair as well and it’s very unique. Slowly, they are beginning to embrace their natural hair, but among young and impressionable high school girls, insecurities can get the best of them, when all they want to do is fit in, especially in a majority caucasian school.
