A bad omen came on top of her head.
According to WMC Action News 5, thieves have murdered four people while attempting to steal hair weaves, “and now many Memphians say demonic spirits could be to blame.” That’s right folks, WMC has scooped the rest of Memphis media on this important story about vanity, greed, consumer hair products, and secret doorways to realms infernal, where ancient evil lurks, waiting to swoop down and snatch a wig right off your damn head.
“Whose-ever hair I was wearing on my head, that heifer had a bad omen“
Even anchors Joe Birch and Kontji Anthony, who’ve introduced so many ridiculous segments by now you’d think they’d be used to it, looked to be passing kidney stones as they tossed the story to WMC’s Senior Satanic Hair Correspondent Jerica Phillips, who, in turn, implored viewers to perform a Google search for “cursed hair.”
“The prophesies are plenty,” she said before sharing a YouTube video of an unidentified woman claiming, “Whose-ever hair I was wearing on my head, that heifer had a bad omen and that bad omen followed her from India and came on top of my head, and I took on her spirit.”

One woman Phillips quoted asked, “Do you know the history of the hair’s original owner? What type of spirit did that person have? You may be buying a person’s hair and their demonic spirit.” Another suggested that people are doing “ungodly things” because, “many of the [hair] purchases are made in other countries that worship false gods.”
“It may sound bizarre,” Phillips said with the serious tone of a veteran broadcaster, “but some people believe virgin hair from India may be possessed during a ritual called tonsuring, the cutting of hair for religious reasons, or sacrifices to idol Gods.”
Memphians Phillips interviewed, like Dr. Bill Adkins, the pastor at Greater Imani Cathedral of Faith, were skeptical, though the material was consistently framed as a subject for legitimate debate.
At least Phillips reached a conclusion upon which we can all agree: “Whatever the root cause of a beauty trend turned crime trend, we can all agree the war spawned by weave must stop.”
Truth.
