Too 'Unbeweavable'

Weaved celebrities I tried to find a way to tip-toe around this topic but it can't be avoided. Weaves have been a common hair accessory for some time in our community. However, at some point some celebrities got a little too carried away. Reality TV star turned music artist Schatar tops my list and Beyoncé and Foxy Brown are strong contenders for second place.

See the others who have taken weaves to new lengths and click the link below for more.

Let me begin by saying that I consider weaves to be just another accessory. It's a temporary means to Wendy Williams enhance beauty, draw attention, or try something new. I don't fault women for it. In fact, I had a weave for years and loved every hair swinging minute of it. I finally said good bye to Milky Way 1B after three years and decided to give my real hair a try but that's another story for another time. My point is, I am not anti-weave, I just wonder why so much?

Lil Kim In recent years, well done weaves have gotten more undetectable thanks to artists (see why I call them artists and check out these amazing before and afters here). No longer can you tell between the real and the fake. The game of detection has become harder. You used to be able to scan for a weave at the crown and work your way through the bangs where the real hair normally met the fake. It leaves me to wonder why people like Wendy Williams, Paris and Lil Kim are taking these tresses down to the floor and leaving no room for imagination. Not only have they gotten long but the thickness makes it very hard to believe a human being can actually survive under all that hair on a hot summer day. I feel for Beyonce who has to dance under that wig (even though it came in handy and provided a nice little cushion in Orlando ).

Now before you slam the comments in defense of your celebrity keep in mind that I know it's their job to look different, to take it to the next level and to not look like they got their weave done by Cookie but instead of opting for something that looks a bit more realistic like these ladies, some of these celebs are adding not one, not two, but sometimes ten packs of hair to their head.

I have a long list of violators but I want to know who you think is the worst. Vote then drop off a comment.
