Why don't you ask her friends moms how they would feel about it?

Person of Dutch descent here. Please do not use our hairstyles if you are from another culture. Dutch braids have certain cultural meaning to us that is simply not generalizable to people of non-Dutch descent.

Belgians know how offensive it is to us Dutch if they parade their children in our braids. Never forget the Braid Wars of Baarle-Nassau.


Can I still wear clogs?


You mock our pain.

I'm so sick of this cultural appropriation nonsense! Just perpetuates division and inequality.

My asian girl does not have any black friends. She saw some white girls with color in their hair, and I let her have fairy hair like them. They come in different color, so op, maybe ask her if she wants fairy hair.

I am a black woman.

When OP's describes this situation, all I can think is that it is so cute that this sweet little five-year-old wants the same hairstyle as her friends. I think it is incredibly sweet and if I saw it, I wouldn't have a single negative thought.

It IS cultural appropriation and it's also fine.

Every Karen who looks deep enough in her soul finds that her supposedly progressive take on cultural appropriation is really her desire not to culturally mix with POC or the poors.
