White people can’t have dreads!
They just can’t! This isn’t even an opinion it’s a fact! Look:
Like let’s be honest, do those look ANYTHING alike? No? Didn’t think so🤷🏾♀️😂
I know they won’t stop doing this appropriative shit even though it doesn’t compare in any way to the real thing and white people just shouldn’t do it from a moral/ethical viewpoint but they will continue to so here’s the deal.
We’re no longer calling that shit white people do dreads, from now on when white people try (and fail) to imitate dreads they’ll be called matts.
Because it literally looks like they matted their hair together with glue to make grinch fingers sprout out they heads lol.
Live it, learn it, love it👌🏾
Thanks for coming to me TED talk
Haha WOW a lot of racism and ignorance in the comments from white people about this! Let’s just clear something up
White people wearing dreadlocks are considered cultural appropriation here because for decades (and even still today) white people would make fun of black women and men for their natural hairstyles. After slavery black women would have to straighten their hair to find work and black men would have to shave. The same can be said for today. Today in order for many black woman to be seen as “professional” they have to have straight hair and for black men they have to cut off all their hair.
Today black children are kicked out of schools for their dreadlocks and it is only illegal in ONE state to discriminate against a black persons natural hair. That means in 49 states it is completely legal to fire a black person, kick a black child out of school, and discriminate against a black person just because of their hair.
Also many black women grow up being told our natural hair isn’t as beautiful as string straight hair. This is told to us by the beauty industry, social media, our parents, and society. This is why now it is so hurtful and disrespectful to see our hairstyles and culture copied by the very same people who made fun of us and told us our hairstyles were “ghetto”, “unprofessional”, and “ugly”.
Also the vast majority y’all just don’t have the biological hair texture for it and if you’re not black and you do then it’s still wrong to appropriate this hairstyle! I hope this helps explain the situation a little better for y’all.
