Nollywood veteran actress, Taiwo Ajayi-Lycett has criticised African women who use wigs to augment their beauty.
In a chat with a media outlet in Lagos, the iconic broadcaster and National Honours Award holder argued that wearing wigs signifies a lack of confidence in women.
Taiwo Ajayi-Lycett also stated that natural hair among African women is the most beautiful compared to other races. She also wondered aloud why some African women prepare human hair from races with less abundant hair.
She said
“We have been blessed with the best kind of hair that we can transform into any kind of looks we desire. We have to love ourselves as Africans and appreciate our God-given beauty. Our Africanness is what stands us out among all the races of the world. The African woman is beautiful in all ramifications. I believe women who go for wigs and human hair have low self-esteem. Their desire to look western and foreign is a sign of low self-esteem,”
The unwavering feminist emphasized the significance of women in society, stating that women are the creators of life. She insisted that for everything to be organized, women must be acknowledged, respected, and treated with compassion.
She advised that:
