Pastor in Texas Bans Women from Wearing Weave in Church

A pastor bans women from wearing weaves in his church.

Pastor A.J Aamir, of Resurrecting Faith in Waco,Texas believes ladies who wear weaves appear to have  low self esteem and are displaying fake images.
In his interview with AmericanPreachers.com  he stated that: “Our black women are getting weaves trying to be something and someone they are not. Be real with yourself is all I’m saying.”

Pastor Aamir went on to say:
“I don’t want my members to be focused on what’s on their heads and not what's IN their heads”

In this day and age where people are having serious money problems, Pastor Aamir cannot understand why young women, especially mothers in his church would spend hundreds of dollars on weaves. That being said, he respects the fact that he cannot legally keep the female members of his congregation from wearing weave-ons, although he bitterly disapproves of it and would love to impose a ban.

 I understand where he is coming from but I do not quite see how biblical this is,and where would we then draw the line. What about women with fake breasts, nails, eyelashes,even high heels? Do we ban all these from attending church? Because if we do then who would be left? 
The more people attend church and hear the undiluted word, the more their life would change according to the pace God desires for them.

Do you agree with the pastor's decision?
Do you think women who wear weave have some form of low self esteem compared to the 'natural' sisters?
