…the folks at popsugar gave her a “worst dressed” award. Some of the commenters on the page apparently think she is giving off some type of “Aunt Jemima” vibe when I think she looks wonderful. Like she’s just out minding her biz, chillin, shoppin, j-loing, whatever. I don’t think most White people are used to sistas and Latino women wearing this type of headwrap. I wear my hair wrappped a LOT…me and Christie-Z talked about this once.

I don’t do it for any religious reasons…maybe I’ll explain why I do it in another post, but basically the main reason is that I have long hair at the moment and I find that it’s so long that it attracts too much attention. Also, I don’t want to make other women I am around unconfortable. I think most women see each other as “competition”, where I see most women like my sisters. Christie is Muslim and always wears her hair covered, but she told me folks have confused her with a cancer patient for wearing her hair covered. WTF? I guess it’s just a cultural difference.
