Black people receive a lot of flack for publicly wearing bonnets, so I don’t want to be insensitive. I have severe sensory issues and things like satin, silk, etc are the only safe materials for my head.
Edit: will wear something different. I am just doing my best to not be culturally insensitive. I will look for a different style of hats; this question is about appropriation.


White dad with a black daughter here–you should be fine, but if you’re concerned, read up or watch videos to understand bonnets in black culture so that you can speak to it if someone ever brings it up. A simple, “yeah I don’t have textured hair, it’s a sensory thing for me” should clarify any confusion.
