Strangest Hair Compliments

[BEAUTYU2U]

Just the other day, my younger cousin was standing behind me and says, "Is that your hair? *sniff* It smells like soap ... no, like doll hair." I've also heard "fresh baby." And I wasn't using the same products at the time.

What compliments have you gotten that were a little strange, funny, or random?

When I went to Hawaii people kept asking me if my hair was real, its not long or anything so I thought it was weird :/

So you gonna tell us what product you had last used?

ETA: Is that sexual harassment?

My friend's husband (white surfer dude) lamented that if only his hair texture could be like mine than he could have some killer dreads.

While swimming in the ocean, one of my friends remarked that my curly hair is so cute and freeing. I loved it!

While touching my twists, my white classmate said "I've always wanted black people hair."

I have had some white people say this to me as well. They wish they had hair like mine. I did find it to be kinda strange.

When I was wearing yarn braids, I had some Venezuelan chick say that I looked like a raggedy ann doll and that it was cute.

Also Drake told me I was the best he ever had. But that's neither here nor there.

It won't nothing but some cheap V05 fruity smelling condish, and he all up in my head like dat...

I don't know if this qualifies as a compliment, but it was memorable because it was awkward and weird.

Some drunk white woman I have never met comes up to me in a bar all tearing up telling me she is so happy I am wearing my hair natural. It makes her so so happy to see me with natural hair. Proceeds to ask me if I have watched 'Hair' by Chris Rock to which I feign ignorance and asks me to make sure I watch it.

I really wish everyone would just leave us and out hair choices alone. Can we live?

Oh goodness, a little bit of knowledge in the wrong hands is worse than complete ignorance sometimes.

"If that is your real hair it is real pretty"

 

[Lita]

"It looks strong enough to clean my oven!"
Said to me by a random passenger on public transit years ago. It seemed like he meant it as a compliment but I didn't like having my shrunken fro compared to a Brillo pad. :-\
The things that stick with you...
