A popular interracial YouTube couple is going viral, after the African American woman took off her weave in front of her husband – and she saw her natural hair for the first time ever.
The video went viral because it’s so cringeworthy.
The video was uploaded by a Youtube couple, Derek and Ruth, who are popular in the “interracial couple” sub-genre of videos. Ruth has been wearing extensions or a weave throughout their entire relationship.
Here’s what her hair used to look like:
But over the weekend, Ruth decided that she wanted to FINALLY show her husband what she looked like underneath it all. It was the first time that Derek ever saw his wife’s natural hair.
And the resulting video went super-viral. It has been shared all over social media, and was viewed millions of times.
The reason the video went viral, was because it was so cringeworthy.
First off, many viewers found it incomprehensible that Ruth could be married to a man for years, and have a child together, and hide her hair from him the whole time.
Second, it was clear from the video that Derek did NOT like her natural hair. And some viewers are calling his reaction “culturally disrespectful.”
