same way the letting the pants hang down below the knees became popular, becuase prison inmates didn't have belts, so their pants sagged a bit, that was seen as a sign of "hard-core" hahaha
 
So you can color-coordinate your urban street gang. The next step is to dislocate all your fingers so you can make somekind of impossible gang sign with your hands. 😛

Anyway, didn't pirates start the whole thing? They were in "gangs". YAAARRRRRRRR!!!!
 
it's to keep the braids straight so it doesn't get messed up, pieces of hair sticking out, etc.

that's the real reason.

No, actually that IS the purpose of them... that, and for people that have waves in their hair to cover them while sleeping.

LOL ... I'm starting to see these guys/gals with a bandana in their back pocket hanging out. Not sure if it's a new thing, but
they have their own colors. I've seen blue and yellow thus far. Where r the bloods?!

Lamer, just cause you don't like it doesn't mean others dont. I wear it as a bandana. I like it, and Im not doing it to be cool or tyte or whatever. Its just my style.

 
keeps the hair out of my eyes. before i had long hair, never wore one. Now, I am compelled to buy a motorcycle, pm me if you are selling
 
exactly what their name implies!!!

be a rag, and collect the dew (sweat) from your head before it drips any where

also for the braid reason

Ok I did, whats your point? You are all to wrapped up with what others think about you (and what you think about others) to see that some people just don't care, and they wear what they like. For instance Im a white kid who lives in a small town and wears alot of American Eagle and Aeropostale, along with my white or black bandana (dew rag) at times. I wear it because I like the way it feels, and looks on me. I just like it, not doing it to be cool, or fit in, or be an outcast. I just like it. Someone called me a i love you for wearing it the other day though. I just laughed at him.
