    My YT subscriptions went from mostly natural hair content, to barely any. Most of the people I followed definitely switched it up and started doing daily vlogs, travel, fashion, etc. and any time there was hair content, it was a silk press or weave install. None of that content is appealing to me, and it’s not why I followed those people originally.
    I understand wanting to diversify content, but a lot of people just completely abandoned their natural hair content.
    I also noticed the lack of kinky hair as the content switched to luxury and lifestyle. It reminds me of that panel of ladies talking about “Don’t bring your natural hair to my event.” It’s still not seen as special or “appropriate” for special occasions.
    That’s why I love actress Teyonah Parris. when she was on Mad Men, she showed up to EVERY red carpet event with natural hair, and SLAYED.

    $1000 to have the most BORING, common and typical hairstyle that every other hair hat looks like. They claim straight weave us versatile but end up having the same hairstyle over and over, looking like clones of each other. The obsession black women have with straight hair is a deep sickness.

    Many of these natural hair influencers are the reason black women believe their hair is too difficult to manage. They were the ones getting paid to promote us a new product every week. Now theae same influencers have straightened their hair and are lifestyle influencers now and we are left with black women who are 'product junkies" and believe it should take 10 steps to wash and style their hair.
    The influencers are the problem. The black women who went natural for a bag, ruined the natural hair movement. Now they're moving on to being wig and lifestyle influencers. They're grifters.
    Black women need to stop listening to influencers about your hair and go to a cosmetologist and book a consultation.

    I will never pay 1k$ for any type of hairstyle. Especially not a wig or a sew in. 1k is enough to buy all the hair products I need for 10 years.
    I am anti wig/weave/sew-in (especially with non type 4 looking hair). But I understand the naturalistas that get them. Sometimes you just need a change. And if it involves asian hair extensions or becoming a straight natural, so be it. What is left to do when you have done 50-11 wash and go videos, or 50-11 hair products reviews ? It must be tiring. I think most natural hair influencers have become lifestyle influencers, sprinkling some natural hair content here and there. When you’ve done everything to your hair and you’ve tested all the products or hair tools, there’s not much left to say.
    The hair companies pay well for minimum effort.
    And honestly black women are on top of this hair game. Not one other race is as versatile and creative when it comes to hairstyles. I give black American women their props because they are the trend setters. Whatever they do to their hair, the rest of the black African diaspora will follow.

    It's sad for me to see a lot of the natural hair influencer I was looking up to turning into lifestyle influencer and "straight naturals" 😕 they barely do products reviews and natural hair related content. I'm happy they diversified their content but they stopped what we were watching them for in the beginning.
    And a thousand dollar for a wig? No I'm sorry 😭 and you're right. It's weird that for them to show "luxury" and "soft life" the have to wear wights or their hair straight. What icks me the most it's when those same natural hair influencers are saying that having their hair straight is easier 😒

    The stylist probably paid her to post this. Wig companies hint down black hair influencers to promote their products.

    I thought it was pretty ok for the price considering the length, the quality of the hair, hopefully her hair being braided under that is included as well for a sew in but then you said quick weave and I gasped!
    Most of what I assumed she was getting with the service most likely isn't happening for just a quick weave and also a quick weave with leave out is never worth over $200 in my opinion because even if that is including the quality of the hair a lot of women don't actually reuse bundles after glue has touched the tracks!

    I was never into influencers to begin with but I did watch this woman for natural hair advice. I honestly believe she knowingly pushed 50 step wash day routines to people (like me) whose hair is not shiny for viewership. She got me because our curl pattern is similar so I thought I was doing something wrong when it didn't look like hers...I wouldn't be shocked if her and many other influencers are doing the exact same thing but with skincare when in reality we're all different and need to figure it out for ourselves or w a professional 🤕

    Unfortunately, content creators typically follow their stats. As far as the chicken vs egg goes, the consumer determines their content creators content. Especially for this generation of content creators. They’re mostly followers looking to get monetized and rarely create original, innovative natural hair content and hairstyles.
    It really feels like the artistic, explorative, discovery era of YT natural hair is pretty much over. I mostly find myself watching older content creators, like Millicent Swift and 4a Daniels to find styles without added hair and heat. It’s pretty difficult to find. I even watch content creators that speak languages I don’t know because it’s the only way to find actual natural hair.
    It’s quite disheartening to do a general search for natural hair and the first 20 videos that pop up are fake and straight hair videos. Who wants to sift through all that? I certainly don’t, but the majority has spoken.
