Am I in a minority of white women who LOVE to wear black hair styles?

I have seen questions and discussions about white women with african american hairdo's and I am one of them. I am very young, and I decided two years ago to take my hair to a black hair stylist and let her perm my hair and style it to look african american. I was sort of glad to get rid of my white looking hair styles, as I was just tired of the look and I have more black friends than white female friends and I love their hair. I really have discovered that my hair is easier to roll, and style since I have been taking it to black hair salons. My hair is stiffer but the curls seem to hold better. I live down South and I have experienced only compliments, except from a couple of rednecks. I don't understand why so many black women want european style straight hair because I have always admired afros, and even when I've seen black women with their hair straightened, their hair is still so soft looking and it seems to stay better after they roll it. Also, my boyfriend, who is white loves my hair. I think he has a fettish for black hairstyles, so now we are both happy. But am I a in a minority of white women who want black hair? I worked with a white woman one time who always had her hair done in an afro, and she kept black hair magazines in her desk. How many other white women are there who feel like me that black hair styles look fantastic?Am I in a minority of white women who LOVE to wear black hair styles?
To be honest I have never seen a white person with black hairstyle before. Have you got any pictures? It sounds interesting lol I too have always liked black hairstyles xAm I in a minority of white women who LOVE to wear black hair styles?
I am white and I have myself had my hair styled by african american hairstylists and I love the way my hair looks. It is soft, but firm and so much easier to style. I haven't had a white hair style in awhile. I get lots of compliments, and I have inspired a couple of my white friends to consider black hair styles like mohawks, and afros even. We read the black hair magazines for the latest styles.





BUT, some black hair salons charge me more for my hair styling, which I don't quite understand. I know my hair is different from natural african american hair, and maybe that's why, I don't know.





But does anyone work for a black hair salon and have experience doing white hair with black hair styles? Could you explain why there might be a price difference to white clients?





Thanks.
