Caught this story yesterday on crunktastical and here. It states that:
Amy Winehouse is set to donate £50,000 to a Romanian orphanage after discovering her hair extensions could have come from there.
The 'Rehab' singer - who wears a weave to boost her trademark beehive hairstyle - was shocked to discover orphans often have all their hair cut off toprovide extensions for western women.
It's bad enough that we have conflict diamonds, now we have hair that has to be certified that it does not come from unethical sources. Shaking my head. Who is the person that came up with this idea to make money? How could someone in any culture exploit children this way and get away with it for so long? We need to reevaluate how we define beauty. Hair extensions, diamonds, breast and ass implants, colagen injections; all these things that people compliment are things are gained by exploiting others or our own bodies.
What do you think about this? Ladies, how can you be certain of where your hair came from next time you get extensions?
