This is PSA (public service announcement) of sorts. Today I almost witness the fury of a black woman who would have been within her rights to go ballistic.
The Situation.
A young black woman, just had her hair did (translation, had a new weave put in) and it was looking fierce.
The Ignorant One.
A woman who is not black, tried to pay a compliment, but in doing so, she seriously, attempted to pet the young woman's hair.
The Outcome.
The young woman swooped away in the nick of time and said thank you.
Here is the worst case scenario.
Let's say the Ignorant One actually touched said hair? Well I can imagine that it would not have been pretty. The girl with the weave would have turned into a hair-ninja and hair-slap the idiot. Now that would have been something to see.
So a word to the wise. See a black woman with fabulous hair? First instinct is to pet the hair? You might want to think before you act.
This PSA has been brought to by "Oh no she didn't!" and "B**** Please!"

GIRL PEEPS DON'T UNDERSTAND WE CAN SPEND UP TO 8HRS IN A SALON AND FOR SOMEONE TO JUST TOUCH IT - IT'S NOT GOING DOWN
There's a multi-racial couple on the Amazing race this time, and when the task was to row a raft, the white husband said about his wife, "She doesn't really like the water." I just knew she didn't want to get her hair wet, right? LOL
I'll remember to neva eva touch. I wouldn't want to spend 8 hours in a salon, myself. But I will compliment you for doing so. *G*

Why would someone ever touch of the hair of a woman they didn't really know anyway?!
That takes some nerve to touch someones hair you don't know anyway. Like people who go up to a pregnant woman and touch their stomach.
