I mean we get frowned on and called ghetto if we do it. I doubt someone of your race would get the same treatment tbh. Same as the Cookie Monster pajama thing for you guys. I mean you can wear it outside if you want to? That’s not really a norm for us though

Nope you won’t get judge because you are white but as black women we get frowned upon for it because we need to be presentable at all times.

OP 3w

It’s for all hair types so do whatever you want. It’s just not something we do bc of racial stereotypes
