Yep that used to get to me when relaxed and long, and now that I'm sporting and good size afro puff it's very annoying! People are curious, but hair is an extension of one's person and therefore, just as you wouldn't touch someone's stomach when complimenting how flat it is, people shouldn't touch someone's hair either. When I compliment people's hair I always do just that - vocally compliment - unless I'm in a conversation and we're all talking about hair - like an LHCF meeting or something when it's somewhat expected especially if you're about to relax, or go natural, or transition or whatever! But people I don't know - heck no! My man, family and friends and other LHCF'ers yes, anyone else - NO!
