Well. Apparently there’s something off with women and hair these days

Despite having many medical tests, Pinkett Smith said she has not been able to find the cause of her alopecia. She suspects it might be stress.
Androgenetic alopecia is a staple of American black women: part of their culture (not joking) is wearing wigs and weaves. EDIT: if you google images weave, you'll find yourself amused
Almost all African American celebrities use wigs, because many have recession and/or diffusion. AA causes it, but the fact that many use tight braids since childhood exhacerbates hair loss.
There are many funny videos on Worldstarhiphop dot com of black women brawls pulling each others' wigs while beating the sh*t out of each other. Hilarious.
