It depends on the braid but generally no! Braids are hot no matter your skin tone is. I mean my brother did some work in Haiti not that long ago and when he came back his hair was in cornrows. I don’t even know what the proper name is because I am white… but I know that was what he did. And it looked goofy aF. That being said he was trying to feel the culture and brake down the barriers while he was there. And it worked! Until he came home. Lol! He looked fine but it still looked weird. And I feel like that is the issues we all have with all of this weird braid business. It is fine for white peoples to do black peoples things too just like it is fine for black people to do white peoples things… and the second we start judging each other is when we get racist AF and need to shut our faces. Because then we are doing the same thing we are all firing against.

Some people just want something to be offended by and pissed off about. I don't get it but you are seeing it more and more. All I can do is laugh about it and you better believe I'll laugh at you in public when I see it. Because I have seen more and been through the kind of crap that the majority of people can only imagine. So if something as simple as someone wearing braids is enough to set you off, then I hope life never throws something serious at you. Because you clearly are to mentally and emotionally weak to handle whatever life throws at you. Especially dealing with someone like me. Because if you tell me that something I said or did offended you, I'm just going to say or do it again.

I have natural curly hair if I wanna spend 200 quid having braids I will, nobody tells a black girl what to spend her money on you sure as hell ain't telling a scottish or any nationality on how to spend their money on hairstyles...
Fucking ridiculous bunch of immature silly wee lassiesThey shouldn't wear braids. It's not part of their culture and I find it offensive. I always get angry when I see a white girl wearing box braids. I'm black by the way.
Also Kim Kardashian is white, she has a fake tan. I don't know why some people think she's not white.
They do not. People have been braiding their hair for tens of thousands of years, although braiding styles vary across cultures, largely due to differences in hair texture. British sailors around 1800 used to ir hair in a long braid, and the length was a point of pride.
As you said, depends on the person, the hair and face. I've seen some black women with braids that just don't look good. You gotta keep in mind that you can't say shit this days without getting almost everyone offended and feeling victim of whatever, don't let them brainwash you, keep your ideas, your point of view and talk about it freely.
Depends on the kind of braids. If its one that us black people wear e. g. box braids, faux locs, etc. Then YES weird and it used to stir a visceral reaction within me but now I quelled down on that part but its still strange to see to me.
It's because White girls actually have hair that can be braided. They aren't wearing weave or wigs...

I always had a thing for her when I was a kid.
It depends, like you said. And it depends on the style they're going for. Most reddit users believe in cultural appropriation or are brain dead. I advise you to get off of it, speaking from personal experience.
It kinda does look weird.
I don't know if it's the hair type don't fit the style, because it not as thick, or just we ain't used to seeing it, because it's rarely done.
I agree with your statement it really just depends on who's trying to pull off the look. I dunno why redditors are so angry 😂
Not only weird but stupid. White people hair texture isn't fitting for braids. Looks ridiculous.
Black people like to claim only THEY SHOULD have braids
It's all about raceDo what you want, nobody has a right or patent on a hairstyle, tell them to fuck off.
Yes, white people should just do their own styles.
That was a funny Reddit conversation
