Chit Chat| The absurd things people say and do around natural hair.

Yes, that's the way it goes.

I've had locs for 12 years now, so I've got used to the comments, I don't worry about them. I think I have a "back off" look about me because I've only remember one stranger touching my hair without permission (family's done it, but that's fine) and it was a grown **** black woman. My locs were below waist length and she was standing behind me on some escalators. I guess she thought I wouldn't feel her touching them, but I felt it clearly. I spun around to see what was brushing on me, only to see her pulling her hand back. She looked up was shocked, and apoiogised, but really! Who does that?

No but truly, who does that? Who touches another person without their permission just a stranger?
Especially when it's a sister.
People are odd.
