Ghanaian gospel musician Diana Hamilton has addressed an individual who questioned her “artificial looks” during an interview.
The individual raised a specific topic about Diana Hamilton’s ‘artificial hair’, while asking her views on whether it is appropriate for a gospel artiste to wear wigs, makeup, and other “artificial” stuff.
During an interview on Accra FM, the host, Nana Romeo, read messages from listeners, and this particular individual raised a concern about the use of makeup and wigs, asking if Hamilton agreed with men of God who say such things are wrong.
“Men of God say make up is not good, wig is not good and bla bla. Do you agree to them? Because I know your hair is not your natural hair.
In a humorous response, Diana Hamilton flipped the question back at the caller, asking the host to inquire if the person was wearing a “natural dress.”
“Please ask him if he or she is wearing natural clothes. Tell him the wig I have on is for me, I bought it with my money,” she said.
Diana Hamilton added that her wigs and makeup were bought with her own money, and it shouldn’t be much of a concern to anyone else.
“Tell him the wig I have on is for me, I bought it with my money,” she added.
Addressing the larger question about whether women of God should adorn themselves in artificial looks, she explained that people’s understanding of the word of God varies, and everyone is at a different stage in their faith and maturity.
“I think the understanding of the word of God differs. And we have levels of faith, so it depends on the person’s faith and maturity. Therefore, I won’t say it is a bad thing. But it is an opinion, and if you form an opinion, you need somebody to talk you out of it if it won’t harm you… But the bottom line is it is a relation with God, and you shouldn’t seduce someone with what you wear,” she retorted.
She concluded, “If you choose to wear something, make sure it glorifies the goodness of God and aligns with the work we are doing. That’s the most important thing.”
