Hairstyles: Appropriated or Appreciated?

That’s personal bias there.

If done correctly, locking one’s naturally coiled hair is not a style of laziness; it requires much maintenance, including regular washing, the inclusion of natural products for moisture, and the perpetual twisting of the base of each locked segment.

It’s not the the fault of the originating culture if the people who appropriate the style don’t even bother to do it properly.
