Every culture to me - be it Asian, African, be it whatever - is a source of reference. I don't think I'm 'stealing' it or anything.

I must say, Gisele's [Bundhen] got some of the best hair I've ever touched.

Someone might say that's a naïve way of looking at things now, and I would respect their opinion, but I also respect every woman's right to wearing her own individual style, including hair.

Beauty shouldn't be taken too seriously. Life is stressful enough! Hair should be creative and crazy.

Beautiful things are different.

Suddenly it was cool to have your hair lank . . . It was a whole different way of looking at things, and it shook up the whole industry.

I think now because of this whole social media thing, people obviously felt these things [about cultural appropriation] before, and they comment on everything.
