eva nappy weave

Eva the diva wasn’t feeling black enough for the NAACP Image Awards last night, so she resorted to wearing nappy weave. This throws us off because we’re so used to seeing it the other way around: naps in front, Hawaiian Silky in the back.

    I’m so glad I have a half day every Friday, cause these stories are garbage today….

  • Lip Chap aka Fuzzy

    What’s going on with the bird’s nest on top of your head Eva? That is not a good look sweetie…BOOOOOOO

  • Candy

    Soo what! She wanted to feel natural. Black people act like sprotin naps is a crime. Its the way god made (most)of us so get over it!

  • NIKKI UNDERWOOD

    LOL…Eva has a Tramp Stamp…

  • Fellow Houstonian

    What in the hell was she thinking!!!!!!!!! That was such a stupid hair idea and a ugly hair style!!! Where is the fashion Police when you need it.

  • Yes I Said it and I Meant it Too

    Eva’s hair looked like that racoon hat Davy Crockett wore in those Disney movies.

  • I’m Just Me

    NOT A GOOD LOOK AT ALL. DAXN THAT IS NOT A GOOD LOOK. WHY DIDN’T SOMEONE TELL HER?? WHY DOESN’T ANYONE TELL THESE PEOPLE THE LOOK LIKE F*CKIN’ FOOLS??

    REMEMBER KIMCHEE ANYONE??

  • Lili

    She’s a gorgeous woman, but damn that hair! And it’s not about “nappy v. straight”– it’s about having a bad weave- period. How are you going to add kinky TRACKS to straight hair?? If she wanted to go all out she shoulda pulled an E.Badu or Jill Scott and just put a full weave in or rock a wig.

    She gets an A for effort, but her hair is the equivalent of girls you see with hawaiian silky hair and nappy edges.

  • Nation

    That hairstyle is wack!!! The hair is out of proportion to the rest of her body. If you do nappy, there’s a way to do it right. Looking like she got a 35 lb mass of hair on her head. TRY AGAIN!!!

  • Don’t Hate

    That’s ok Eva, The Diva. I guess there was only one day in your like that you weren’t the most beautiful woman on the planet. Nah, just kidding. The hair was jacked, but you’re still the ONE!

  • jennifer

    She is still a beautiful women I am not sure where her stylist was going with the look but with that face she still pulled it off.

  • Mami

    I love the natural hair, i myself am natural however I strongly believe if you are going to wear weave let it be the same texture of your hair. Or if your hair is a noticable different texture make should you apply your weave so your actual hair cannot be noticed.

  • I’m Just Me

    THIS SHOULDN’T BE A DEBATE. I HAVE DREADS (AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PIC) SO I AM ABOUT SOME TYPE OF NATURAL…BUT THAT SHYT IS NOT NATURAL…IT IS A BAD WEAVE THAT IS ALL!!

  • Kompton’s Kutie

    I like Eva, but the hair was a bad move.

  • andie

    Natural is so hot these days, everybody wants a piece.

    IT’s what those white girls are doing.

    Teasing their hair to high heaven and curling it out and making it all big to get those high fashion afros.

    BUt EVA, i thought she knew better than to get some $10 weave.

  • SIX Shooter (GET MONEY)

    I dont like the hair style, but as for the rest of her? It’s ALL GOOD! Damn. And I love her tramp stamp,the brotha who’s getting a up close and personal with her and her tramp stamp is a lucky man. Know he is smiling from ear to ear as he smashes from the back.

  • Floridaboy8703

    That dress looks like I MADE IT and thats not a good look at all.

    But I like that she went against the grain and threw some kinky twist hair in her head. Besides the korean silky.

  • Adeana

    i hope she didn’t do this for the NAACP…

  • http://taichi@sbcglobal.net slipup

    WHAT WRONG WITH BEING BLACK? YOU ARE A SLAVE IN AMERICA IN 2008, PLEASE, YOU SPEND SO MUCH TIME CRITICIZNG PEOPLE. I BET YOU THINK YOU ARE PERFECT. WAKE UP ! THIS BLOG COULD BE USED AS POSITIVE SOURCE. GOD BLESS YOU AND EVERYBODY HERE WHO FEELS THE NEED TO CONTINUE IN THIS VAIN. Yes I am screaming I hope you get it.

  • Mami

    I looked at the picture again and it would have been okay if she didn’t comb her hair over the weave in the middle.

  • andrea

    i’m so over the word nappy. we have a serious problem when blacks are criticizing other blacks for natural texture.

    seriously…

  • Yes I Said it and I Meant it Too

    Now see what had happened was Eva knew the hair looked bad but it was down to the last minute. Her stylist convinced her that the two hair textures wouldn’t show up in photos since they would be taken from afar. Eva thought she would go unnoticed.

    Yes, this definitely falls under the “Dude-where is my hair stylist?” category.

  • Mami

    @andrea this is not about her having “nappy” hair, this is about her having a messed up weave.

  • http://www.yahoo.com Southern Belle 225

    her hair is HORRIBLE and her dress is just awful! what was she thinking?? not a good look eva!

  • http://www.yahoo.com Southern Belle 225

    everybody needs to be who they are all the time. Don’t put in so called “black” hair just because you are going to a black awards show. you don’t normally wear your hair like that so its insulting to do so just because you are going to a black event. it doesn’t make you look more black, it just makes you looks stupid.

  • NIKKI UNDERWOOD

    Oh BTW LAnce is some yummy Choca-latte…

  • gap 7 gucci

    i’m mad you’re still nikki underwood lol

    where blair at? won’t he there??? can we see that?

  • http://www.yahoo.com Southern Belle 225

    totally off subject but, did anyone see aretha’s dress?

    ***DEAD***

  • getyourhandouttamypocket

    Damn, this is a first…Asia in the front and Africa in the back. That’s f-ed up. Eva’s still cute though.

  • Vinandi

    Lance Lance lance!!!!!!!!!! I love me some Lance!!

  • Karen

    I think Eva may have went a little to far with the hair..I am all for natural and being proud of what you are given, but this is not natural for her, people who wear their hair “natural” wouldn’t wear this….I don’t like the dress, but she is still a beautiful woman.

  • Bored at Work

    She sort of reminds of Terrence Howard. Anyone else see the resemblance?

  • LadyJ

    Eva is beautiful and can get away with just about anything. Not the greatest match in textures but she looke refined nonetheless. BTW I’ve NEVER seen Eva with naps in the front, maybe you should post that pic???

  • tistirini

    So let me get this straight…The ‘nappier’ the hair the more black you are? Interesting…

  • gap & gucci

    bored at work

    i do!! that’s wild!

  • NIKKI UNDERWOOD

    @ KZZ

    What up!!!

    @ GAP

    Blair was at the Image Awards…lookin like something I would devour!!!

    Denzel with that BALD head…I would have slammed Paulette in the the snow!!!

  • http://site.gravatar.com/ Dixon_Girl

    HOW DO YOU “TRY” TO LOOK MORE AFRICAN-AMERICAN???

    THIS IS……?

  • Astrid

    I don’t like the weave, but her boyfriend is FINE!!

  • NIKKI UNDERWOOD-WASHINGTON

    Yeah Lance can get it…

  • ihatealiases

    is it just me or does eva look like a female terrance howard in this pic?

  • Bored at Work

    Yes she does. I thought I was the only that noticed that. She’s very pretty though.

    I co-sign and agree 100%

  • Gia

    HAHA @ the relaxed hair up front and the dred 1/2 wig in the back!

  • m&m

    the sad thing is that she didn’t even bother to frizz up the relaxed part – she could have braided it then let it go or crimped it – but don’t try to brush it down on the steal wool and think that nobody can see it! *slapping forehead DUH*

  • Fabs

    ^^ yeah, like U Guys said .. why can’t it be just “natural” hair without the added adjectives

  • DC DIVA

    The whole thing is just a MESSSSS!!! the dress, the hair. Her face is the only thing she had gon on that night.

  • N3w0rl3@ns

    OH MY SWEET BLACK JEZUSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nation

    @andrea

    I wear my hair natural and I wasn’t aware that the term “nappy” is negative. I’m nappy and I’m proud. But I also have a well-groomed, professionally done hairstyle that is in proportion to the rest of my body and fits my facial features. EVA does not have that in these pictures. I am not offended at all by the word “nappy”.

  • NIKKI UNDERWOOD-WASHINGTON

    @ GAP

    It was bald and shiny!!

    @ KZZ

    LOL!!! Pauletta is a “old head” I would out run her!!

  • U GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE

    yeah i get ppl are commenting on her hair but why is nappy a negative word still being used?

  • Damn

    Pick ONE damn texture! Just ONE.

  • Lady Architect

    dont like it. Her hair doesn’t match that texture and it’s obvious.

  • Mami

    @UGuys

    not everyone consider nappy to be negative.

  • PRTTYBRWNGIRL

    is she trying to prove her blackness by wearing nappy hair cause everybody knows eva does not have that texture

  • OneStep

    Yes, the hair is bad but DAMN, that dress is AWFUL as well. It looks like she a broke Solid Gold dancer.

    Who is dressing these people? I mean, really????

  • U GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE

    looool well if it doesn’t bother some ppl…

  • estmirabilis

    What the hell is happening on top of Eva Pigford’s head? OMG. I’m sorry but as a 100% black woman (no mix on either side), my hair on it’s nappiest day does NOT look like that mess she’s wearing

  • ResearchDONE

    LOL at hawaiian silky!!!! My girls and I “discovered” this in college as a way to handle our curly hair and not have a relaxer! i will be using hawaiian silky on my daughter…her father’s hair texture is a little rougher than mine…

    Boo at Eva though…its looks a hot mess. Doesn’t blend well AT ALL!

  • sukisuki

    i love this hairstyle!

  • VicKaLiCiouS

    Her weave was cute last week. WTF did she do to herself? LOL Maybe tyra styled her.

  • http://text-support.com Scooby Dubious

    I keep expecting her dress to light up and spell out Go, Packers or something.

    On second thought, something about her hair reminds me of Toni Morrison’s, that same wrathful crown of righteous black womanhood. Or maybe it’s just dry.

  • Amity

    I just hope she didn’t feel obligated to wear her hair like that because she was at a black awards show

  • tintin

    what the hell is that on her head. i can’t stop laughing at this photo, hahahhaah.

    her man fine though.

  • tintin

    what’s up with the pimples on her face too? damn

  • NIKKI UNDERWOOD-WASHINGTON

    @KZZ

    Girl my boy SBM aka Lube held it down …Spic n Span!!! Classic!!!

  • Put This Where? Back THERE!

    the truth for natural hair is:

    KNOT TODAY – leave in conditionar and

    CURLING CUSTARD – detangles and defines your NATURAL curls

    TRUST!!

  • Put This Where? Back THERE!

    someone told her she looked like Toni Morrison and she took that to the bank and ran with it!! smh :roll:

  • Kym G

    She is a WIG Model for Espeically Yours Line.. lol… She must have picked up some extra kanankaelon there..

  • Kat

    I love it. I think she looks beautiful. Why is naturally textured hair so bad that people have negative knee-jerk reactions this strong?

    I really take issue with this post. Are black people really this self hating?

  • kj

    she look like whoopi goldberg!

  • skinnychicksneedluv2

    all i can say is H.A.M,LMAO

  • NuAgenda

    There’s nothing wrong with the nappy/curly, just why have your straight hair coming through? LOL

  • K-mia

    her hair looks horrible….one or the other, but never ever both kinky and straight. Her skin needs a little work too…

  • http://www.myspace.com/ocky_j Octavia

    Her stylist needs his/her ass beat for that one.

  • Jahpson

    its fashion foward, its not suppose to make sense to people off the streets

  • Jahpson

    people who think their best set of clothing is a clean shirt and some jeans…

  • LUVLEELADEE

    she didn’t know which way to go, just confused

  • nico

    she is so stunning…but that dress is a mess, but who cares when you are that pretty

  • wonkwonk

    She wanted to feel natural? plzzzzz She wanted to feel fab, but came off fake and flawed. oops

  • Trusted Source

    @Dixon_Girl

    FUNNY

  • ohnoudient

    Eva should slap the ish outta whoever convinced her to leave the house with her hair like that

  • supyall

    Nappy is not negative.

    i think that the hairstyle, was a good look on her. READ WHAT I WROTE hair STYLE. the EXECUTION was janky. She should have waved up the front some more. Put some curls in it and then frizzed it out, so that it matched the back.

    There is nothing she could do about the fact that her hair is permed. why is it a bad thing for someone who has straight hair to go nappy sometimes. can it only b the other way around? thats unfortunate.

  • Lady

    Eva hair looks terrible… U can clearly see her real hair in the front. Her dress is a disaster, looks cheap & a size or 3 to big… Her elbows and skin look a ashy mess… whew, thats all i can say..

    She came to a party here in the lou where i live and was a complete biotch! Shes not even all that pretty in person & she came with a slicked back ponytail, no weave.. She looked worse than these jacked up ass pics!

  • coco

    it looks good… if it was european silky#7 this wouldnt b a issue…

  • monique

    SHE TOO PURTY FOR THE MESS SHE GOT ON HER HEAD

  • Jerome

    Ewwww, its times like this when a weave would come in handy. I feel bad for black girls who wasnt born with good hair. At least have the good taste to cover it up with a wig or weave, shoot even a doo rag wouldve been it better taste.

  • resputia

    loooll.. that weave be trippin. looks like a carpet!

  • GIT DA FUCC OUTTA HERE….

    LMFAO @ naps in front, Hawaiian Silky in the back.

    BAAAHHHAHAHAHA….guess its the other way around in this pic…lol

  • kandyk

    lmao I thought I was the only person who noticed how bad her weave is in that pic…when I first saw that I’m like I must be lookin at this wrong cause I KNOW she did not leave the house lookin like that….

  • jay

    Is it just me or does Eva Pigford look like Terrance Howard in drag?!!??!!!??!?!?!?
