Yeah i grew up with a lot of cambodians and they do deserve to be paid way more for what they do. 20 american dollars for human hair is such a low low price to us in europe and america but their in cambodia I knew that is a lot of money
it wouldnt be so bad..if they were getting paid the money they deserve..its not the weave that is the bad thing..it s the way it is made..and the mind set of some of the people who wear them. these women should be paid 3 or 4'x the money they are being paid for this hair.
i remeber seeing a video that showed hair weaves coming from india that were sacrificed in hindu temples,they didnt kno it would be sold on to the U.S etc neway i always get synthetic this is quite a sad video
Wow!!! Thank you so much for this informative video, now I feel the same way about hair as I do about diamonds. I know that and hope that this is an issue that will gain much more traction and that women will respond appropriately!!!
Wow. Very interesting. You are just showing how it is. I hope that they are at least being paid enough to feed their families. It does seem like the company that is sponsoring this, can at the very least get them off of the floor. 12 hour days!!! This is way too long to be working in that type of set up. I don't feel like she is judging anyone. She is just showing what's what. CNN and 60 minutes talks about this type of thing all of the time.
very very educational and interesting. Kind of reminds me of something you would see on Discovery channel or something like it. It was purely unbiased in my opinion. You did not make any remarks or try to create a case in point to persuade or dissuade anyone or exploit a culture. You were being friendly and trying to be careful to make them feel comfortable by showing that you were interested in understanding. that is how I saw it.
you wrote: '...she is accustomed to high maintenance...I can see how someone born with a silver spoon can judge others'.
Classic case of the pot calling the kettle black. You're accusing me of judging and yet you don't know the first thing about me or my background and are therefore making assumptions.
I tried to present this video as non-bias as possible but it's clear that this conditions are just not right. Why do you keep defending the working environment of these people?
That is so very sad. The fact that there is a mass market for this says a lot. These people's working conditions are deplorable. Great awareness to this issue though!
What were you in Cambodia for? Was it for this purpose?
Can you explain to me what is racist about saying a sweatshop? If the people are working under very hot conditions and sweating in these bad conditions, isn't it a sweatshop? I don't know.
So true. She has hit the very definiton of a sweat shop, low wages paid to a group of people that work in hot and unsanitary conditions, for the means of mass productuion of products. There is nothing racist about her calling it what it is.
You're Just culturally insensitive and generalizing people - prejudice. 2 decades ago, 2000 years of culture was devastated in that region. I can see how someone born with a silver spoon can judge others.
i don't know what you call a silver spoon because i am nowhere near a silver or any other color spoon, but if you are just referring to the differences in cultures then i understand. We have to understand other cultures before we try to change them or make the better by the standards that we are used too.
For me to be predjudiced I would have to hate my sister in law and my mixed nephews. She is Cambodian. WHICH I DON"T. As for a silver spoon in my mouth, I grew up dirt poor. There were days when I had nothing to eat and no place to stay because we were homeless. It took my parents years to stabilize and get right. So YOU are generalizing ME and don't know shit the first about me. Go take your self righteous ass backward thinking to someone with less intelligence.
There is nothing 'normal' about working 12 hour days in sweltering heat, sitting on the floor of a cramped up, stuffy room with no ventilation! Just because employers choose to exploit their workers in such a degrading manner which is prevalent in a lot third world countries, doesn't make it right. FYI- I was born in Haiti.
Ooooh nooo.these people should be charging waaay more.they would make a killling in the U.S....I wish I could help them.

Hello, can you tell me why people like Cambodian hair ? Is it just because it's cheap ? But it must be cheap in India or China also, right ?

Its borderline racist to call it a sweatshop in my opinion.
EXgam3R 2 years ago
I'm not trying to be racist. I called it a sweatshop because the conditions were so deplorable and they were mass producing hair.
TheHairoine 2 years ago
They are hand crafting not mass producing and the conditions are not high maintenance like other New York Factories.

It depends on the point of view because she is accustomed to high maintenance and to her this is unaceptable but in cambodia this is a norm.
