Feature: There's The Weave, Then There's The WEEVE! LOL!!

The Real Thing: Primrose Crous wears Diva Divine Indian Hair weft straight 22"

What is this Hades sent mystical creature I am talking about you may ask? What does it do? Where does it come from? Is it a myth or is it something some other hating brother made up just to yank our chains. Truth be told I never believed it until I came across it. 

Like any other African brother with his head on right I had my swagu going on. Yes swagu. We in Africa right so swagu, and not swag, is more fitting. I came across one of these mystical creatures at the heart of my home town’s social hub. It was dreadful. 

At first I had a problem identifying what it was. It was something I had never come across before. It somehow had the characteristics of a weave but it looked more like it wanted to leave its host rather than be one with it. The age of The Weeve had started.


Know the Difference


I learnt to differentiate it from the weave with ease. With that skill I had acquired I noticed that it had infested itself. Slowly making it’s was from the so called ghettos to suburbia. It was now an epidemic. Our beautiful African sisters were slowly being replenished by hideous aliens with no swagu what so ever. 
But how do you spot it? Where do you see it? Are you for real? These are just some of the questions I have been asked. My answers ofcourse through the help of prestigious universities have been:

• When you have bits and bits of cotton stuck on your hair because it looks like Velcro. The Weeve.
• When your hair looks like the cotton candy that you bought from the confectionist stand at the fair. The Weeve.
• The weave something most women don't know about. The Weeve. 
• The leading cause of mismanagement of funds in the ghetto. The Weeve.
• When your hair has more split ends than a tributary. The Weeve.
• Its has become the ghetto’s Black Berry. The Weeve.
• When your hair has speed humps. The Weeve.
• It has a life of its own. The Weeve.
• A train track has nothing on it. The Weeve.
• It comes out to play at night. The Weeve.
• Hair today, gone tomorrow. The Weeve.
• And last but not least it gives you the confidence to tell people that it's your hair since you paid for it. The Weeve.

From what we have learnt then why do you ladies spoil what was once so beautiful and natural with such monstrosity? If you are going to add extensions to your hair please do so with the knowledge that it’s a form of peacocking and also do so with the intention or willing ness to spend for quality. You wouldn’t want your man coming up with excuses for not being seen with you in public because of The Weeve now would you? Like the fight against HIV and AIDS we can defeat this mystical creature and send it to the depths of Hades.
