Why is it that when a celebrity debuts her new weave hairstyle, we blogs have to write a new post about it?
As far as I’m concerned, weave is no different from lacefronts or wigs; it’s all artificial hair to me. So why make a big deal about it? Did the media in the 60s write articles every time Diana Ross debuted a new wig?
Last night, R&B Diva Monica, who I love like a niece, tweeted a pic of her new weave. But instead of tweeting “new hair”, she tweeted “new color!” That tweet left me baffled. I thought when we announce we have a new color, we’re supposed to mean our own hair?
Mo later clarified that the new color was in reference to her own hair. She then acknowledged her new hair by declaring, “I bought it.”
That’s fine. But when a man buys a new car that’s a different color than his last vehicle, does he pull up to his boy’s crib and shout, “hey dawg, new color!”
