Umm no, it is a right, we have the right to style our hair however we want, noone is 'allowing' us to have hairstyles!

That was honestly one of the stupidest articles I've ever read (as well as patronising to white people and black people). And when you have to start quoting Azealia Banks to try and back up your points you know you're struggling


EDIT: This is his response by the way...
