White women should not wear braids.  

So racism is ok if you are black?

Can you imagine if this was a white woman telling black women that they can't have straight hair? Smh 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hey y'all, black person here👋🏾 I can assure you that most black people don't think like this. We apologize on behalf of the ones who do.

Imagine gatekeeping braids. Get a life

This is so racist.”You smell bad…You’re ugly.. You’re hair texture…”

Tell me you're insecure without telling me you're insecure 😂

Imagine. Telling a black person they can't straighten or dye their Hair blonde Edit:Hey to all you guys! Thank you guys for getting this much likes on this comment,I just wanted to say,I'm very happy you guys agree with me.i thought every body was just gonna hate on me but I guess I thought wrong.But thank you guys so much and that's all! See you guys later!!! Bye

Let me educate this person…..They are called “Dutch Braids.” They came from way back in the Nordic times. White Viking men wore them. They are not from the black culture. You cannot proclaim something to be off limits to everyone outside your culture because your people invented it, especially if it’s not a fact. If you don’t believe me, research it for yourself. Imagine the world where we could only utilize inventions or discoveries by our own culture. For example: Ben Franklin discovered electricity. He has always been portrayed as a white man. So electricity would be accessible to whites only. That makes as much sense as DUTCH (not African) braids can only be worn by black peoples. How messed up would that be? Things from all cultures are to be shared and celebrated by all. This helps to unite us. Some don’t want be united. They are comfortable playing the victim. Shame, we have much to teach one another and much to learn from each other.

I'm a black person from Africa. If you (white, asain, everyone) want to wear braids wear braids, we don't care. It's African Americans that get so offended about braids when theres bigger issues affecting their communities.

As a black girl, we don’t claim this creature….

So I'm white and you're basically saying, that if white girls can't have braids, then black girls shouldn't have straight hair, or wear weaves?? So..... 🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️

SHE TRIED TO COOK BUT IT IS STILL MOOING 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯

Vikings and native Americans have been wearing braids since forever. She must be out of her mind.

As a black person from Ghana, I want to say we don't know this one! She's spewing nonsense and it's filled with contempt. And now disgraceful!

Black people didn't invent braids Black people do not own braids No one can claim braids as part of their culture. Braids are to be enjoyed by everyone regardless of race

I’m a white girl with naturally curly hair. You can’t say everyone with the same skin color has the same hair texture..

As a Kenyan we take pride when people from other cultures want to wear our traditional attire and learn more about it... It has never been an issue to us

imagine if i'd go around and tell black women straightening their hair "your hair texture ain't made for it".

It’s not cultural appropriation it’s cultural APPRECIATION

As a black person, we don’t claim her and pass her on the Asian community

Racism goes both ways but society makes it a one way thing

As a black female, I do not accept her as it is very sad to see a blk person acting this way🙁

this is seriously nonsense, braids weren’t even made by black people it’s called a Dutch braid they were first made by the Dutch. Society made this picture that “only black people can wear braids” it’s completely wrong and for this woman to insult white women wearing braids is entirely not ok 🙏

In Russia, Ukraine and Belarus we wear braids for more than a thousand years… It’s our traditional hairstyle…

As a black woman this is honestly disgusting. You should not be able to say what race can't do what. I honestly feel every race look good in braids❤🤵‍♀️🤵🏻‍♀️🤵🏼‍♀️🤵🏽‍♀️🤵🏾‍♀️🤵🏿‍♀️

This is just mean for no reason as a black American women I don't support this at all

(Me a White girl!) This triggers me so bad because what if I told a black person you can straighten your hair because that’s a white person thing! How do you think you would feel?! What if I do want bald spots?!!? So it’s racist when white people were braids but it’s not racist when black people straighten their hair? I think people should be able to do what ever they want with THEIR own hair no matter there race.💗

They about to be real mad when they go to the Caribbeans and find out there are a lot of white people that have braids.

this debate is getting old. let it go.

Discrimination - the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of ethnicity, race, nationality, age, sex, or disability. racist - a person who is prejudiced against or antagonistic towards people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group.

Since when was culture owned…

As a black person, it really doesn't matter what race you are. It's just a hairstyle.

Just plain racism...not a hair issue.

She actually thought she ate this up 😂😂

Viking were the first to wear braids not black people so🤦‍♀️

"You look ugly" "you smell bad" "we have gone out of our way to make them uncomfortable"...this is EXACTLY what racist white people were saying to black people about THEIR hair back in the day. Combating an argument about racism with a racist comment isn't valid and judging by the comments, not many people agree with you

People who act like her wonder why they never get respect

Y'all acting like only africans had braids and locks

The earliest recording of representation of braids was from Austria -it is actually something that cant be pinned down to one culture as it initiated across many continents at the same time

She is proud about making people uncomfortable

I'm a black woman, blacker than this woman. I seen so many white women with cute braids or locs like the white girl from the movie Hustle and Flow for exaaple. I always thought her braids were super cute. Guys wear your hair the way you want. As long as you're not mocking, making fun of, or imitating black people you are 100% fine ❤

"You look bad and you look ugly." And who are you to decide that? Gurl stop shamming people in the name of protecting your identity. If someone is happily trying to appreciate another culture through fashion, then you have no right to attack their self esteem by saying they look ugly.

Yeah, but if you were white and saying Black people shouldn’t wear have straight hair they shouldn’t straighten their hair that would be wrong, but this isn’t

Im Asian and its normal for us to braid our hairs. We’ve been doing this since ancient times. Braids and locks aren’t only exclusive for black women.

This girl gave us the perfect presentation on how to be racist.

As a half black person, we don't support this disrespectful creator 🤦🏼‍♀️

Braids and dreadlocks are not the property of Black people. It can ve worn by anyone. Along side the native African tribes, India has had a tradition of using dreadlocks for ascetics and forest dwellers for millenia. Black people, do not own DREADLOCKS.

Girlie was so proud of saying that and thought everyone would be on her side 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

*Racism joined the chat*

Ok so why are u so pressed? I’m black and idc if you want to wear braids wear braids. It litterally doesn’t affect me.

im black and this lady is totally incorrect SHE IS TOTALLY INCORRECT yes they’re textured hair would have some problems with the tight braided but THEY DONT LOOK BAD. THEY DONT LOOK UGLY. NO MATTER WHAT RACE YOU ARE EVERYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO WEAR THEIR HAIR HOWEVER THEY WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What if we told you, you can't straighten your hair Btw I am talking to the girl in the video only

this is an american problem pls 💀💀 no one actually acts like this outside the US

Then maybe you guys shouldn't straighten your hair. Im gonna tell you guys the truth. Black people look beautiful wearing straight hair, but white people look beautiful with braids or locks. Please stop criticising people for their hair choices.

As a balding black male, i ran jokes with others who dyed their hair crazy colors and different hair styles. Black, white, blue, purple. Didnt matter. So to the council, do we claim her for the blatant racism?

The comment section gives me hope for humanity

She's awfully bothered by something that literally shouldn't mean shit to her. Braids and dreads don't belong to one type of person 🤷🏻‍♀️

girl you walk around with hair extentions from asia you have no right to say sum shit like that

Quit gatekeeping a hairstyle that you didn’t even create. This is the lowest you can get at this point 😂

“my culture made bread, now you cant eat it because it’s not your culture”

As a black person, I honestly think this is kind of rude. White Women should also be able to express their selves without getting hate for having braids? Braids are not just made for Black people, it’s a hairstyle. Anyone could have braids or locs. It’s not that big of a deal.

If someone gets braids it's not bad, its appreciating the culture.

Now I’m waiting for the video when she tells black women not to wear straight hair, blonde hair or European wigs asian hair, latino hair ,India hair, sew ins or even synthetic hair that’s not kinky or black textured

Gunna have a veerrrryy rude awakening when they go to any of the carribean islands and see many young white girls running around wearing braids, that's their culture and culture has been shared and will continue to be shared. Also it's not nice proving a point about someone being racist when you're being racist yourself

This woman got issues...I'm from Africa Kenya and I don't care who wears braids..most people come to Kenya and they want there hair done like us and we are happy to help...

I have friends who wear braids and they say I don’t think you can’t have braids I think yes respect all cultures but if people want to do it then it is there choices.

Tbh I kinda agree… i kinda just hate braids they look okay it’s just how they hurt how they mess up your hair and literally it just itches the first few weeks and literally 7 hours wasted! Growing up that was the second biggest problem for me I had so much hair before braids now my hair just above my shoulders

How to say you're racist without saying you're racist.

What a nasty piece of work.

Im mexican mixed with white and I really want braids/locs but people like this make me feel terrible for trying to be myself and my hair texture is made for it.

Black men don't care what you do with your hair

I’m Nordic and my people have worn braids long before the internet was invented….

Not her being blatantly racist. Wtf does someones smell even have to do with a hairstyle 💀. Plus whether u think a hairstyle looks bad on someone or not, you don’t bash them for it and try to tell them you own that hairstyle and they can’t wear it jeut cuz of their race. That’s crazy.

That’s a bit far, I am white and I have curls and when my hair is short it goes almost Afro like. I would personally never braid my hair but it’s a bit far to say we’re smelly? My hair is a different texture but it’s still curly, all I’m saying is let people do what they want with their hair, just leave everyone alone to do what they feel comfortable with.

I believe that a valid question would be is how this rant would be received if it was posted by a Caucasian woman as such; “You guys look bad You look ugly, like it doesn’t look good. I’m sorry sometimes you smell bad, I’m just gonna say it. I don’t care. Um because you don’t know how to keep it up, and also your hair textures aren’t made for it. So do you want to end up with bald spots and looking crazy? Don’t do it, and also Josie Yaz and I and all very much so made people uncomfortable around us for bleaching and straightening hair if you are white. And I don’t care if your great great grandfather is white. Do you navigate the world as a white person? Oh you don’t? Then don’t bleach and straighten your hair, it’s that easy.” Probably not too well. So is this woman advocating hairstyles based on race? Not very inclusive. Basing something solely on race is generally not considered a good practice. While conversations about racism and double standards are crucial for understanding, I feel that postings like this, possibly with the sole intention of rage-baiting, only contribute to the perpetuation of racism. As well as the frustration of double standards regarding racism. A couple of interesting articles to read. www.essence.com/hair/black-women-blonde-hair-real-life-inspiration/ “Thinking Of Going Blonde? Here's What It Looks Like On 15 Black Women” “Black women can effortlessly pull off any hairstyle.”, and “When it comes to hair rules, we define our own.” A couple lines from the articles first paragraph stood out. wp.nyu.edu/steinhardt-appsych_opus/hair-alteration-practices-amongst-black-women-and-the-assumption-of-self-hatred/ Hair Alteration Practices Among Black Women and the Assumption of Self-Hatred”.

But if a white person said this to a black person this would be called racism😂😂😂😂

The physical embodiment of entitlement, ladies and gentleman.

the fact 6k people agree with her

So yall r not yelled at for saying we can’t have braids but if we say one thing about you having straight hair we get shouted and yelled at

who said black ppl cant be racist lol, girly thought she did something by posting this😮. thanks for likes 👴

To any white women out there, please wear braids and don't be ashamed of who you are. Just do the opposite of what these people say. Good adage to live by...

Hello peoples mixed person here I apologize for her the only time I’ve ever thought that way is when I’m on TikTok, insta, RU-vid etc. and white people out here making fun of our braids or saying stuff about Viking and all that but if y’all not being rude then honestly idc have a good life ig bye

People that are white and wear braids 😭(please don't tell me I'm the only one😭)

k fine if i cant do braids, then you can't straighten your hair. hows that?

I don't plan on getting box braids, but you just called us ugly, telling us we smell. I didn't chose to be white, and being white makes me insecure. We are all human. Jesus.

I forgot!!!! Her Blonde weave mixed with herbraids!!!!!!!!!😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Im black, and i think this is just petty.

It seems like she is not happy with herself. She projects insecurity by tearing others down.

What if a white person were to say this about someone black…I think some people don’t understand that racism isn’t only towards black people but people of all colors which includes white..

Black person here, I'm not gonna say that I agree with her.But I'm just gonna say I am sorry for how she acted.But I will only be mad if you try to show off then I might be mad.

don’t wear your hair straight it’s meant for “white hair” you can’t wear that it’s not meant for your hair

As a black woman,who cares?we don’t own any hairstyle.There’s a difference between cultural appreciation and appropriation.Ppl are gonna do what they want regardless if ur mad and u tell them not to

people should style their hair how they want regardless of race. Sucks to suck if you don't like it

Listen I'm Hispanic I am friends with black people and Hispanic people And so if I get bright no one really cares they just say nice braids But this lady is getting carried away anyone could wear braids if they wanted to

Ok, your insecurities are not any of our problems. Personally I don't care what kind of insults your gonna say because you can't tell people they look ugly for their choice of hairstyle. If you hate it then don't post it. Simple as that. You really shouldn't be walking around like someone who doesn't think before they talk, saying "you look ugly for your choice of hairstyle." that's just disrespectful. Yes everyone has their personal opinion but why post it on RU-vid!? Whats the point if nobody's gonna listen to you.

“Yall look ugly” Look at your teeth💀

I'm black and I have afro hair idgaf about white people wearing box braids like straight hair is from white people but black people are allowed to straighten their hair? There's nothing wrong w if, if you're gatekeeping a hairstyle you need to get a LIFE. EDIT : IF UR NOT BLACK DO NOT COMMENT ON THIS. U HAVE NO RIGHT 2

I am black but girl look at who's talking .White people are beautiful

As a black woman this was very disturbing bc why are u downing another woman instead of telling them that there hair can be damaged from the box braids

Just want to say... braids and locks were worn by a lot of cultures. Not just black culture. Vikings/nords had braids. A lot of native American tribes did as well.
