A pastor in Texas who is planning to ban his members from wearing weaves
to church has said it is meant for women with low self-esteem. Here is
what he told AmericanPreachers.com when he was interviewed;
“Our black women are getting weaves trying to be something and someone they are not. Be real with yourself is all I’m saying. Long hair don’t care. What kind of mess is that? I don’t want my members so focused on what’s on their heads and not IN their heads. I lead a church where our members are struggling financially. I mean really struggling. Yet, a 26 year old mother in my church has a $300 weave on her head. NO. I will not be quiet about this.”
Do you agree with him?
