I like Mason's ("67 guy") ice cream hairstyle/haircut. I thought that was called Wings but ice cream hair was new to me

Maybe a little more understated/less flare-outey but thr general form I am envious of

Dont braids lead to to torsion/tension alopecia?

A lot of if not majority of Black women end up either bald or with many bald spots because of it apparently due to tight hair styling

Just say no to braids. Lots of humans who did them can confirm this

This is correct. I don't braid since I was a child and my mother used to braid so tightly it made my eyes slant and water and gave me headaches. I absolutely refuse since then, but I see it a lot in my neighborhood.
