What is your opinion on non-black males with cornrows/or braids?

I am a Pacific Islander, dark toned skin, male. I want to get my hair braided. I know there will be haters, but and I truly respect the hairstyle and I highly disagree with all the stereotypes of cornrows=”black thug”
- Eh, it may work
Hopefully since you’re a Pacific Islander you’re hair won’t be so straight like most Asian people because if it is, braiding your hair will be a complete waste of time because the style wil not stay in your hair

I’m half Asian half white and I had my hair plaited, received many compliments too. You’ll be fine.

You be ok. I know Mexicans that have braids/cornrows in their head and nobody didn’t care.

It’s more of a urban style, it isn’t a clean cut image for like a business man or man of importance. I like clean cut Black men, educated, with great character, not the hoodlums.

If you want to then go ahead. Men started wearing low slung jeans and no one asked if that looked good (which it doesn’t) so don’t worry about it.

If you just be yourself then I’m always cool with it.
