I knew about bonnets - that is it.

Bonnets confuse me. Skin NEEDS to breathe. The scalp needs to breathe and I don't think there is any air flow with them. Not to mention all the pollen, oil, dirt trapped inside them. Just seems like the making for yeast or scalp infections especially in the hot, humid summers here.

Try a loose pineapple 🍍 bun with a scrunchie if your hairs longer than shoulder length or a satin pillowcase.

My wife is Black. She’s says you can have your privilege of not wearing a bonnet at night. She’ll keep her privilege of being 60 but having the skin of a 35 year old.

Why would you write this?

Agree.

I just leave it down. If it’s annoying me I’ll braid it or put in a high bun. Bra-strap length hair, curly.

I think it's a black thing.

Yes, it’s been a black thing for a long time because of the need to protect the curls. It’s also a white thing if you have curls that you don’t want to restyle every single day. Friction on the pillow case causes frizz. A satin bonnet decreases frizz.

Almost.
As a Black woman no I don’t use a bonnet. I opt for a silk scarf. I also wrap my hair at night.

I wear my hair straight and it helps to prevent friction which can lead to breakage. When our hair is not at its natural state.

I believe they mean the bra band (not strap which is the part on your shoulder).

I only ever see this phrasing on DCUM and I bounce off it every time because what lady doesn't know what a bra strap is vs a band?

Why is it a privilege to have short, fine hair? I’ll take pulling my full bodied hair that can be worn curly or straight, up loosely each night.

She is not bragging or boasting, she is just saying that she doesn't have a burden in this particular area like others do. That is like me (ol' flat chested me) saying it is an immense privilege not to have to worry about strong sports bras or boob sweat, meaning I just have one less thing to worry about in one area. But of course I am human like all of us so I have my own things to worry about that you may not have to think about.

It's a millennial white girl way of saying she has long wavy hair, she probably is blonde and wears it in that generic Kristi Noem style.

Today I learned that a pineapple bun is just a loose ponytail on one’s forehead/hairline—designed for curly hair.

So tired of this trend of every basic thing being named.

Agreed. It’s so obnoxious. I think they mean bottom of the shoulder blades.

And sorry but I’m not taking hair advice from a woman who apparently has had hip length hair in her life. That’s cray and gives off crazy cat lady vibes, at best.
