Back up OFF the hair!
Do you like it when people touch your hair??
How do you react when people try to to touch it or when they do touch it?

I love when people touch my hair!
I think its because its actually my hair.
When I wore a weave... I'd break your fingers off or my neck trying to move before you were successful.

If I don't invite you to touch my hair, stay away. lol. I think its more of a space thing though.

Re: Back up OFF the hair!
There are two people who can touch my hair without asking; my goddaughter and my closest guy friend. He has locs so i get to touch his at will and he can touch mine. Anybody else and you gotta get the stink face from me. Idk why, i just dont like for random ppl to touch it.
Re: Back up OFF the hair!
I think its funny, but it annoys me sometimes. I feel like Im some kind of pet or something. Ususally its people I work with. (white people) They always comment on it. They think its cool because its different and they can't do this with their hair. I get questions like why would you go natural and how do you maintain your hair from black people.

@Jenelly.. LOL!! For me its not germs, just invasion of privacy. People get all up in my personal space. I kind of like that people are intrigued by my hair, but don't poke and prod it like its an alien life form or something.

Re: Back up OFF the hair!
I love when ppl touch my hair. I have more white friends than black, and they give me more love (A LOT more love.. but that's a diff. story)
My guy friend know I love having my head massaged, so when Im stressin in the library he takes care of me lol.
And I noticed my bf (white) prefered my curly hair to when I straightened it. He wouldn't touch it when it was straight.
When the black ppl I know touch it, they don't caress it, they pull and yank like they're saying "WTF is this" -___-

Re: Back up OFF the hair!
LOL @ CurliEbell
Out here noone really tries to touch my hair so I'm not sure how I would feel if someone does touch it.

Re: Back up OFF the hair!
This is an interesting question for me to answer because I'm newly natural but I've always worn my hair in wild styles so people have always wanted to touch my hair. For example if you visit my facebook, my signature look is actually a blue and orange a-line dread wig with glow in the dark stars attached to it because I'm of the cyber-goth subculture (ask me if your interested and don't know what that is). So people would always ask me "Can I touch it?" When they asked it was nice but people who just grabbed made me nervous cause it was a wig and I once had this bitch snatch my wig off my head because she was curious and I wouldn't tell her if it was my real hair or not. Anyway, now that I am natural, I want people to ask me if they can touch it because I love it so much. I love touching it myself. My bf (white) has never dated a black woman before and he is dying to touch my natural hair, since I always kept it hidden. He's in England now though so he has to wait til I graduate and move out there or go visit.
