Respect My Hair!

[SmilingElephant]

You were not wrong at all. I hit people when they touch my hair. Don't care if I've known you for 20 seconds or 20 years. Touch me, get hit. Everybody knows I don't like or want my hair touched. My uncle's girlfriend HAD a habit of sticking her hand in my hair scratching my scalp. I don't scratch my own scalp with my nails. She was warned twice and the third time she snuck up behind me and she caught a backhand. She learned her lesson. I don't know where your hands have been. Don't. Touch. Me.

Someone did me like that at work one day. She snuck up behind me and I nearly flipped out. In fact I actually did semi-flip out...she never did it again. My hair was in a ponytail/puff...and she just planted her hair on my scalp and scratched.

I couldn't wait to get home and wash my hair out.

I'm gonna start doing this and then washing my hands afterwards.

Good idea... But don't actually run your fingers through it just pick it up and move the hair around with your fingertips in alternate sections... That'll teach em!

I grab and squeeze their wrist when people do this. Sometimes it's coupled an "aah aah" noise like I'm reprimanding a dog that is about to get into something that it has no business in.
