I’m a white woman and my hair is falling out (recently developed an autoimmune disorder); is it acceptable for me to wear head wraps? Is there anything I need to avoid for cultural sensitivity?

No as long as you're respectful and not going it to be weird they're for everyone!

I can’t articulate why, but it feels like it’d be wrong for me to wear the bottom left style specifically. Would it be wrong? I have a huge ass forehead so hairstyle height makes me feel better abt myself, so that’s probably the style I’d prefer, but I don’t wanna be a problem yk?
