You would need to find one that has a high maintenance mother, then they would be used to it.
I am not high maintenance (white), and DHs mom is a farm girl. I am anything but, however not by any means high maintenance. i.e.: I shower every day, his mother did not believe in it.
ITA that most white men with money would not pay for the weaves or hair extensions or hair maintenance.
Plenty of black women do not wear weave. I do no wear weave and wear my natural curly hair. Neither my sister or mother wear weave either. Plus let's not act like white women don't wear weave--Jessica Simpson, Kate Goslin, Miley Cyrus all wear weaves. And even so there are plenty of folks on craigslist doing weave for $50 these days. Weave is as cheap or as expensive as you want it to be. And the reality is there are plenty of men of all races who'll buy a woman whatever she wants, be it weave, the latest Chloe bag, etc. If a man loves a woman and the cooch is good, gurantee she'll get whatever she wants out of him regardless of race.
High maintenance has nothing to do with race, it has to do with values. Some women spend all their money on clothes, some on hair, some on makeup. Look at all the white women on youtube that are makeup gurus, they are probably dropping thousands on makeup a year. Sephora is packed with white women every time I go and that stuff is not cheap. So let's not try and say black women are high maintenance because that's highly subjective.
