\u201cLong hair, she don\u2019t care\u201d was one of the famous lines from Waka Flocka Flame\u2019s smash rap hit \u201cNo hands\u201d. After hearing these lyrics, ladies proudly began taking hair to the next level.<\/p>\n

Whether it was being relaxed and healthy, making that transition to natural, or keeping those bundles on deck, \u201clong hair don\u2019t care\u201d shines a light on those luscious locks.<\/p>\n

But is it worth it?<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s be real here. Hair is a really big deal in the African-American community. A countless number of hours have been spent in the salon and large amounts of dollars have been spent. When it comes to the amount of money put in hair and the number of hours it takes to get it done, how much is too much?<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, I am willing to wait as long as it takes to get done whatever I went in to get done. Whether it is braids or a sew-in, I know it is going to take time going in, so I\u2019ll wait,\u201d said Kourtney Thomas, a junior history\/pre-law major from Meridian, Miss.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Aliyah Tipton, a junior English major with a concentration in journalism from Flint, Mich. said, \u201cI am natural, so when it comes to buying products for my hair, I once spent $60, but no more than $35 usually.\u201d<\/p>\n

Celebrities like Janelle Monae, Solange, and even youtubers like Naptural85 and the Glamtwinz334 have not only made natural hair popular, but have taken it to the next level. With all of the different and creative styles that can be used to style natural hair now, is there an obvi-ous decrease in sew-ins?<\/p>\n

Jocelyn Nickson, a junior statistics major from Jackson, Mississippi said, \u201cI don\u2019t think sew-ins are going anywhere. Sew-ins can also be used as a protective style for natural hair, so I think a decrease in the amount of ladies wearing sew-ins is not possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amber Cooper, a criminal justice major from Madison, Miss. agrees.<\/p>\n

\u201cWearing your natural hair is beautiful and great, but weave will always be around. Weave is so versatile! You can braid it in, sew it in, clip it in or glue it in. It can be worn long, short, curly, wavy or straight and that is why women love it!\u201d said Amber Cooper, a criminal justice major from Madison, Miss.<\/p>\n

Women put so much time, money, and effort to look good, and a lot of times, it is to get that spe-cial guy\u2019s attention. Which comes to the age old question, do guys really prefer girls with long hair?<\/p>\n

Th\u2019marves Brooks, a psychology and speech communication major from Jackson, Miss. said,\u201d I prefer my girl\u2019s hair to be minimum neck length and max would be armpit length. I am just not really a fan of short hair. It can definitely be cute on some girls, but that is just not my prefer-ence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well ladies, for many guys at JSU, long hair don\u2019t care gets the win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
