Girls shaving a patch of hair on one side of their head and growing the rest long?

Can we finally, as a society, accept the fact that just because something looks so good on Rihanna does NOT mean that it will look good on every random girl?

Rihanna could essentially smear herself with Elmer’s glue and roll around in Froot Loops and 20-something white chicks would say “that is so cute, I knew crushed cereal in your bodily creases was going to make a new style. I told you, Stacey.”

But I don’t understand why girls choose to do this; what’s the point?

This is absurd, and must go.

When random girls just shave that awkward patch into the side of their head, they don’t look “edgy” and “hot,” they look like they got a hold of a pair of trimmers for their more sensitive hairs and slipped as they were turning it on, (haha).

Nothing about that hairdo looks even remotely intentional. And, speaking anecdotally, I went into my bank the other day and the receptionist was suddenly missing a sizeable chunk of hair on the side of her head and looked at me like nothing had happened. I wondered immediately a) if she had a boss of any kind and b) if she knows that this hairstyle will soon be looked back upon with the same disdain as white girl cornrows.

To all the girls who have this hairstyle, we like YOU, just not your choice of hairstyle.
