I love stories like this. lol
So do I. I think I would have paid money to see his face.
I would have paid even more to see the look on his face if you had pulled your hair down and shown him!

I've done this before! I was in Family Dollar one day and the lady in line in front of me returned a box relaxer and the people working there were trying to make sure everything was in the box and asked me if I knew anything about them (why, cuz I'm black?) and I looked at the box and said "No I don't, sorry." Then my LHCF maternal instinct kicked in and I was like now what if some unsuspecting consumer buys this box, gets home and applies the relaxer only to find there's no neutralizing poo cuz some arse hole didn't return it? I played like I was reading the box to know what all s/b in there. They make you do it sometimes!!!

He's seen my hair straight once and his words verbatim "*sucks teeth* Oooh, bi*&^ you make me sick! How you gonna hide all that bee-you-tee in that ***** clip and boring bun?" I've discovered a lot of interesting places around here thanks to him and his nose for perfume is unreal. I went to his sister's divorce party with him a few weeks ago and we're having drinks tomorrow night.
His mom asked where we knew each other from and he told her I was the one that came up to his job and cursed him out lmao. He is a fool.
Okay, so I went to Jc Penney yesterday to scope out hair products and see what, if anything, was on special. As I'm walking in to the salon, a nice black guy (the only 1) working there asked me if I needed help with anything. I politely told him I was just looking. He comes over anyway (it burns my butt when people do this) and starts talking and asked me my hair type. Not thinking, I told him a 3c/4a mixture and he was like no, I mean is it curly, straight...I said oohhh, right :eyeroll: I'm very curly. I was looking at some Phyto Organics stuff, just reading labels and dude said "no, this is what you need," walking toward the KeraCare and Mizani (why are these the only products behind the counter?). I said "I've used all that stuff before and still use Humecto every now and then. I getting irked by now because I already told this punk I was just looking... Anyway, he shows me the Biolage and some other things and once again I'm like "been there, done that" he then says "well since you've tried everything, maybe you should stick to one line. You need to give things time to see if they work!" I explained to him the ills of being a PJ and it not even being a matter of sticking to something, I just like to buy stuff. Then he tried to school me on washing hair and leaving in the conditioner and said he does this once/wk. I told him my hair was wet 90% of the time and (co)wash about every 3 days and I always leave in conditioner. He then thought he figured out the answer to my imaginary problem (remember when I said I was just looking?) And goes "aaahhhh, all that washing is drying your hair out. This-" I didn't even let him finish. I was like "you know what, I am no rookie when it comes to hair and hair care. I know what works and could probably teach yall a thing or two, don't let this clipped bun fool you, I'm protecting my ends!" DD was standing there and cosigned "her hair is this long" and drew a line on her back near her tail bone, which was obviously an over exaggeration in 30 seconds I told him about cowashing, the diff between moisturizing and sealing, and adding oils to conditioners. His mouth was open. I also let him know that while I appreciate him putting forth the effort to help, never assume you're dealing with a novice nor a pro, ask questions but if someone says they're just looking, respect their space. And while KeraCare and Mizani are good, stop directing black customers straight to that stuff, like nothing else up in that joint will work on our hair! I ended up giving him my number so we could talk shop and go shoe shopping he said my shoes were to die for...
