Pastor BANS Females in Church From Wearing Weaves. Says It Reduces Self Esteem



A controversial pastor in Waco, Texas is BANNING members from wearing weaves! Taking the whole "Come As You Are" concept a little far as he's attempting to BAN weaves from his congregation.

During an interview with AmericanPreachers.com, pastor A.J. Aamir of Resurrecting Faith in Waco, Texas told his staffers that weaves present a false image and are associated with women who have low self-esteem. Following that, he went on to issue a decree to the women of his congregation, asking them to not wear weaves. Why? He told the website,

“Our black women are getting weaves trying to be something and someone they are not. Be real with yourself is all I’m saying."



He continued,

“Long hair don’t care. What kind of mess is that? I don’t want my members so focused on what’s on their heads and not IN their heads. I lead a church where our members are struggling financially. I mean really struggling. Yet, a 26 year old mother in my church has a $300 weave on her head. NO. I will not be quiet about this.”
