If you are a woman, don't let this happen to you in traffic
Women have to be extra careful in the traffic when they drive with their windows open.
There are certain things women like to do after a long day. Get into comfortable clothes and enjoy the last few hours of the day.
However, thieves in South Africa realised it is a lucrative market when they snatch women’s weaves. It has become so blatant that they even do it in the traffic!

Wig snatching is a real thing!

Siwe, whose wig was stolen last year explained how it happened to her in Johannesburg,’ I was waiting for my sister by the taxi rank with my baby brother. A guy that was passing by pulled my wig. Everything happened so fast. Someone that saw everything from afar’.
I was waiting for my sister by the taxi rank with my baby brother. A guy that was passing by pulled my wig. Everything happened so fast. Someone that saw everything from afar shouted "yemka i-wig." My baby brother caused a scene. The guy said ebedlala. We forgave him.
