"Don't hate me because I'm beautiful"

I read an interesting article in the latest India edition of Marie Claire, of all places, about how the world hair trade is now primarily supplied by India. If you want to read a similar article from the Guardian, click on the title above.

In Hindu culture, female faithful often shave their heads as an offering to important temples. In order to generate funds, temples export the long, thick hair to European and American boutiques where it is detangled, dyed, and turned into high-end hair extensions. Indian hair is some of the most prized in the world. However, rampant demand has led to greed, corruption, and exploitation.

What do you ladies have to say for yourselves? Really now.
