Ha! Story of my life! I'm kind of over it, though. It's like when the editor-in-chief in the movie, The Women, walks into the department store and all of these skincare people are trying to sell her stuff and she says, "This is my face, get over it," and just keeps on moving. Yeah, I feel like that. This is my hair. It's not a political statement, nor is it an attack on society. It's just not that serious!
And thank God for white people (that's my ignorant statement of the day)! My white guy friend says natural black hair is like crack for white men.
I just cut my hair again and I don't always like it. Sometimes when my [white] roommate comes home, she'll say, "Oh, your hair looks good!" and it's genuine. My own mommy told me I look like a pickaninny! Her [biracial 3-haired] daughter will smile and say, "Your hair is curly like mine!" It's cute. White people always love her hair, meanwhile her [black] dad is eyeing the nearest box of Just for Me! Weird (read sad)!
