No hair weaves in my church please: Pastor

Pastor AJ Aamir of Resurrecting Faith Church in Texas has enforced an unusual law in his church. He had banned women from wearing weaves.

Pastor Aamir said that women who wear weaves have a false image of themselves and weaves are associated with women who have low self-esteem.

 “Long hair don't care. What kind of mess is that? I don’t want my members so focused on what’s on their heads and not IN their heads… I lead a church where our members are struggling financially. I mean really struggling… Yet, a 26-year-old mother in my church has a $300 weave on her head. NO. I will not be quiet about this,” he told Americanpreachers.com

Do you also see this kind of behaviour in your neighbourhood? - people who are flat broke but are always seen with expensive 'unnecessary' materialistic possessions?

Why do women wear weaves?
