Are Dreadlocks really cultural appropriation?
YES
Here’s why:

amichevole answered your question: That damn bow.
Do it on stretched hair. Make a ponytail and then separate the hair into two with a small left out in the middle. Fold the hair and pin :)
Okay thanks love! I’ll try it tonight

My hair type is 4c, do you think it could work for me?
If that means really really coarse, then yes. That’s why I love doing my cousin’s hair, it gives me lots of material for this blog. I can help everyone.

Beautiful Textures is the business.
Here’s the website, but go to Sally’s and buy some. It’s not exactly cheap, but it’s affordable and a lot less expensive than Carol’s Daughter or Kinky Curly products.
Call your Sally’s and see if they have it; we had to call 5 different places.
It is AMAZING. I washed my cousin’s hair today and the entire process (washing, deep conditioning, detangling...
That damn bow.

Nah, nigga.
I have a right to complain when I go to Wendy’s and they get my order wrong.
I’m entitled to my opinion when people ask me whether or not I think Beyonce uses lace fronts or Malaysian weave.
I am not complaining or simply stating my opinion when talking the racism.
I am talking about my rights as a human to not be persecuted and exploited.
