Human hairs, wigs sacrificed to deities, carry bad luck – Singer, Natalie Okri shares

British singer Natalie Okri has claimed that some human hair used for wigs is originally sacrificed to deities and unknown gods.

In a video on her Instagram page, she explained that in parts of Asia, women offer their hair at temples as a ritual to shed bad luck and poverty. She stopped wearing wigs after learning that these hairs are often sold to vendors, suggesting that black women wearing them might unknowingly carry negative energy.

“There are 3 reasons why I stopped wearing wigs and human hairs: some human hairs are sacrifice to demons, deities and other unknown gods.

“A lot of women in some countries like Asia, they go to the temple to sacrifice their hair to their god, believing that their gods will purify and cleanse them. They gave their hair as a form of getting rid of bad luck, poverty and every other thing stressing them and they started life anew.

“Those working in the temple take their hair and sell it off to the European market or to different big vendors like Ali Baba, Ali Express and different brands. And we black women go to those websites to buy these hairs at hundreds of pounds.

“We are wearing someone’s bad luck on our heads. You may not believe in their god but as a Christian, that works against what I believe in, because we see them as demons and deities.”
