A story only you ladies can understand

[shandaw]

I took my daughter to get her hair braided on sat. She goes every two weeks, the girl that does her hair is very young like 19. Anyway, it's in a shopping center and right next door is this great beauty supply store they sell everything. I always go by there on the days my daughter gets her hair braided.
I came back with the bag in my hand (I bought new buns) her hairdresser says to me"you always at that beauty supply store, I dont know why? because you wear your hair the same way everytime I see you (that would be a bun) the girl that shampoos was also in there and she looked at her and said she never does anything to her hair and it's long to. The girls says well, maybe she doesn't feel like it.

I'm just sitting there because I don't feel like explaining that this is a protective style. I swear it gets on my nerves because what I have found is that, eventhough she does hair and that goes for most of them, they can't tell you how to grow your hair. I just totally ignored them.

What they don't understand is, that's why you have hair! They too busy pulling, overcombing and carrying on to realize it's making their hair break off. Just keep on keepin on!

I would've told them to mind their own bidness <--lol
When your hair grows super long then you can smack them in the face with it Wait, do they even have any hair? I bet theirs looks like this or this

I swear in every salon there is always a rude, loud, ignorant hairdresser always saying something! You keep doing you and when your hair gets to your goal let it out. I bet she wont have anything to say then.

First of all, that's just disrespectful...she is a child (relatively speaking)...What happened to respecting your elders...Ugh...and on top of that, she's loud AND wrong #fail

You did the right thing, ignore them. I wouldn't have entertained the conversation myself. Whatever I am doing is working for me, so why should I go through the trouble defending my PS of choice?

Why do people think your hair should be a public domain??
How you wear your hair is non of her business.
good grief

i know how u feel, everybody in my fam keep asking me why im wearing those lil twigs ( corn rows or twists).... im retaining all my length and my hair has never been this healthy, i dont even explain to them.. but even if i do they wont know what the hell im talking about.

I would have ignored them too. My friends would make comments about why I was always wearing wigs and I just ignored them.

After years of being on here and incorporating healthier hair techniques you just get used to ignorant comments about hair from folks who should be mute on the topic.
