TRACKS ON TRACKS ON TRACKS. The weaves of Big Brother Hotshots?!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the 27th housemate of the Big Brother House is the weaves.
This is the first year when EVERY contestant, except for Butterphly and Goitse has a weave on. No braids, no natural hair, nope. Just weaves on weaves on weaves.
Betcha between the women in the house, there are more than 100 packs of hair in that house. It must be a mess in that house. Can’t imagine the shower, and the shedding everywhere!!! GOOD GAWD!
I don’t get it. After I began binge-watching Malcom X this year (I think Ive watched it twice a week every week since January), I really changed my opinion about what it means to ‘relax’ your hair and what it’s history means to to kinky-curly textured individuals. Let’s just say it threw a real spanner in the works about how I handle my hair.
All in all, I must categorically say I am 100% for weaves. But there’s a lot of contingency clauses with that cuz I don’t support permed hair or having weaves as a neccessity rather than an option like any other do, and a bunch of other complicated things.
That aside, here’s my analysis of the 27th housemate this year: the weaves in the Big Brother Hotshots house. (Call it Weavology 101)
The GOOD:
Samantha: Her weave so good all the housemates initially thought it was her hair. Upvote for going with a texture that is similar to her own hair texture. 9.5/10
Mira: Come on, she looks like Gabrielle Union, live, in living color. Hating would be the highest level of jealousy. 9.5/10
Sabina: Your weave blends well on good days. But camaaaaan, how goes it with that ombre? It didn’t go from a brunette crown to soft blonde ends. The Berlin Wall found a new home, cuz you just got two solid blocks of color on your hair. Fix it. 8/10
Ella: Good weave. But IMHO, the color is a little too gothic black. A deep brown would better complement your skin tone. 7.5/10
The BAD:
Sipe: Her impeccable styling of her weave more than makes up for the suspicious part. 7/10
M’am Bea: Your weave isn’t too bad. But the length is out of control. When it comes to length, there’s a fine line between Rapunzel and the creepy little girl in the horror movie The Ring. You’re teetering on the wrong side. 6.5/10
Lillian: Girl you got about twenty packs in your head alone. TAME THE LION! 6/10
The UGLY:
Sheila: This is a public service announcement. Say NO to strangely applied lacefronts. 3/10
Esther: IS THERE EVEN A PART IN YOUR HEAD?????? YOUR WEAVE IS SORCERY!!! 1/10
Laveda: Ref. Esther. 1/10
And for Goitse and Butterphly, this BBA cycle goes on for 63 days. There’s some treacherous styling days to come around mid cycle, y’all be singing #IAintGotNoWorries
Word to the wise: If you wear a weave, extensions, or a wig, WEAR THEM WELL, and most people really won’t care.
