    Black women do not own braided hairstyles. Many cultures around the world wear braided hair. It's not an imitation or appropriation. As a black man I'm tired of this dumb conversation.

    Our hair texture naturally holds braids and and cornrows. Straight hair does not hold braids and cornrows the same. Braiding our hair holds the natural oils in the hair so the hair does not dry out. It is in the bend of the curl that absorbs the oil keeping it from drying out. Straight hair does not absorb the oil, hence the "rat tail". The oil slides down the hair shaft. Washing our hair everyday would wash out the natural oils and we are left with a fuzz ball on our heads and plenty of split ends. What a mess.

    These hair wars are ridiculous. Let everyone have the hair style they want. No one owns a certain hair style. Braids ands locs have been around in many cultures around the world long before there were any African Americans.

    Hello I always enjoy your videos!
    Most of the times you were right on point! There was one particular thing that I just want to Point out to you When you used the example of Black people braiding their hair with Maps in it. Of course that was during slavery.
    Put an order to counter this woman ignorant lie about the Viking inventing braids you would have to use an example of African people before slavery. So since we were around before the Vikings were around we were braiding our hair before they Existed

    I don't see a problem of anyone wearing braids, of whatever style. It's just a protective hairstyle. Just don't claim to be the originators of this protective hairstyle. People of African descent are the creators of this hairstyle. I have better things to worry about than what these other non-black people are doing.

    They’ve successfully stolen from us, but no one of any race is dumb enough to believe the Viking story. They may have worn a few braids, but not this hairstyle. Personally, I don’t care what they do with their hair. She could shave it off and paint her head green for all I care. Everyone join me. It feels great not caring what the folks do. Set ‘em straight on history, then forget ‘em.

    Egyptians wore braids before any one VIKINGS did not create anything, egyptians also wore wigs as well so whyte women have no claim to either. Europe beauty standards came in to play because of whyte women being jealous of EVERY OTHER WOMAN …. Look up the beauty standards whyte european women did to maintain youthfulness only to poison themselves or overly damage their skin. But go off

    I've said this before on another channel, and I'll say it here also. Every race on this planet braids hair. HOWEVER, there are certain braided hairstyles that are unique to African and African American culture. When these non black groups descide to wear braids, they don't wear braiding styles from their culture, they copy black peoples hairstyles. And when they get called out on it they'll say 'The vikings wore braids!' Give me a break, where was this pride in viking hairstyles amongst white people in the 1800s, 1900s, 1950s 1990s, etc.? These whites and others only started wearing braids during the time that hip hop and rap became mainstream and they know it. P.S. Black people as a collective have got to do better at gate keeping black culture and stop inviting everyone to the cook out.
