We must also remember that white women dye their hair, too.

True indeed, and i understand some social norms, but i'm more concerned with the idolizing of white america by some of our generation, rather than believing in their own beauty and personality, rather a lot of folks always are trying to be accepted by whites and to do that, they must attempt to fit in with the style and likes of white america! I just believe it goes deeper than just following a desire, because theres a reason one wants to follow a desire that is not of their own rather of some other look and feel, and it is usually instilled through this american media hype of european/white idolism! Peace!
