*Tries not to give their website any traffic*, but inside the post they’re actually crediting Kim and Khloe Kardashian as one of the “glass hair” pioneers.
They’re even crediting the Kardashians 😭😭💀 pic.twitter.com/fadEpl0c5n

It’s laughable but folks are really LIVID at the audacity. For YEARS black women have been silk pressing their natural hair, weaves and wigs. And that’s just NORMAL women getting their hair laid at the salon. If you want to talk Black celebrity women, there are PLENTY to choose from…
Heck! Even Katt Williams used to rock a mean silk press. Black women really have questions for Marie Claire about where this “glass hair” trend started.
When are y’all going to stop stealing trends from black women, and then falsely give credit to white women? “Glass hair,” literally, what? 🤦🏾♀️

This is a blunt cut bob… been around for the longest. Achieved with a mean silk press or yaki/human hair. pic.twitter.com/Re8TIHq2nA

“Glass hair has been slowly rippling through the Hollywood world all summer, though we’ve all been too distracted by the barrage of celebrity bobs to notice their accompanying glass-like texture.” 😒 pic.twitter.com/gMQeejYfbE

What in the cultural appropriation is going on here⁉️ I’m sorry y’all, but wypipo calling a silk press “glass hair” is too much Mayo for me 😒 https://t.co/IqC8QjdmkW

Continue Slideshow
At this point, I’m thinking mayonnaise was created by some black person and Mrs. BestFoods-Kardashian strolled by the stand and said ‘Yum,’ and Ye Olde Marie Claire printed, ‘There’s This New Thing Named Mayo and the K Girls Are Bringing It!’… Or something.
