How many hairs is that?

[deleted]

Now I need to know what country exports the biggest hares.

Average rainbow 6 player

Like at least 40 right?

Can confirm we are quite hairy

I knew you were a non German posing as a German. If you were German, you'd have spelt Entschuldigung correctly.

Right spelling nick was already taken

See ya lol

👋🏾

Oh no, how will we ever deal with this loss

Only wholesale though. They won't split hairs.

USA!

United States imports most of its Human hair from India, Indonesia and China and is the largest importer of Human hair in the World. The top 3 importers of Human hair are United States with 90,205 shipments followed by China with 65,332 and Myanmar at the 3rd spot with 10,190 shipments.

My bet would be on Spain

Actually it’s Hungary. Spain is a close second.

India is basically the cheapest source of Caucasian hair. South East Asia have Asian hair and Africa has no hair.

How do you think it should be spelled?

I spelt it correctly in my comment. Anyway, the original commenter said that the username with correct spelling was taken.

It's kind of exploitation though. Basically religion has setup a system to harvest peoples hair and then sell it for their own profit.

> Once their wishes are realized, all of the family members come back to the temple and shave their heads to thank the god, Sreeja explained. Primary dealers then buy women's hair from these temples at a discount and sell it to industrialists like Sreeja, who then process it and export the extensions overseas.

>Basically religion

Many Big temples are really business places . They will try to profit from everything , that being said shaving hair at temples and such is a very common way to thank the deity , it's kind of like " I will do this if my wish is fulfilled" or a "mannat" if you will , and a mannat comes in different forms .

Also this buying of hair doesn't exist only in temples . For example back in my uncle's village there are people who will buy hair or barter an amount of hair for an utensil or such .

Yeah, I respect the people giving their hair as a way to thank the deity. I think that part is actually pretty cool, like giving of yourself as a sacrifice is really probably the most noble sacrifice to do.

It's the part where the temples take that hair and it becomes commerce where it starts to feel sketchy.

>It's the part where the temples take that hair and it becomes commerce

That's why I said , many big temples will try to profit from literally EVERYTHING , because sadly that's what many of them have become

I saw this movie "OMG – Oh My God!" which was like a Bollywood takedown of the fake gurus in India. It also has an interest plot in that the main character doesn't believe in Shiva, but the movie literally has Shiva there interacting with him.

It goes into things like the wasted milk, money/idol industry.. but it does also make some exceptions where real charity is done, like it doesn't attack the kitchens that do things like langar.

As an American I can't evaluate the truth of it, but it was interesting.

Then let me tell you a story , usually several big temples have some fixed men in the pujari attire who try to take money from you by various means , so when I was a kid my mom visited one such temple , a pujari literally blackmailed her into giving him money , saying that bad things will happen to me if she didn't give him money , so yeah . Very many places have these crap while others focus on charity for example the Ram Krishna Mission , or like the Dakshineswar temple is such a nice peaceful place which exists for worshipping without any sort of con artists in its vicinity .

Also you should watch PK . It really does question several things about the gurus and stuff while . The movie is kinda an attempt to distinguish between religion itself and the con artists of religion all under a comedic film

And probably 80pc of India's source would be Tirupati Balaji temple where people go to shave their heads for respect of God Balaji and the fulfillment of their wishes.

Indians are highly religious.

Stop downvoting him folks - it's actually a fairly cute joke that he cracked.

And if you look at his responses below, he's mellow.

I've been to the Sri Venkateswara Swami Vaari Temple, where they apparently "harvest" 2,000lbs of hair a day. Interesting place. Lotta bald people walking around. They kept calling out to me to donate my hair, but they were laughing and just messing with me.

Several doll hairs' worth

the entire sub makes me wonder what they teach in schools.

Thanks, my man but alas, I have accepted my fate.

Is it because most of you are bald?

I think there's a huge market for women's wigs. A lot of african american women use wigs for straight hair because their natural hair is curly.

People have been shaving their head in that temple for centuries much before all the export.

Entschuldigung :(

Chris Rock touches on this in his 2009 documentary “Good Hair,” which covers the history and perception of hair for Black women in the United States

They sell them by the strand.

The practice of giving hair at the temple predates American racism forcing minorities to import hair from India to look ‘acceptable’
