A distinct memory in my natural hair life is when I almost jacked up a classmate who put her hand in my hair. (http://tropie7189.blogspot.com/2011/04/natural-hair-and-professional.html). I know that some people may not understand why touching hair may be a sensitive topic but this article provides some insight: http://www.cnn.com/2011/LIVING/07/25/touching.natural.black.hair/index.html

What do you all think? I’ve obviously revealed my opinion but my opinion is not all that this blog is about. I want to hear your honest opinions ESPECIALLY if you disagree with me. Tell me, is it okay to touch strangers’ hair? If yes, under what circumstances? If no, why not? Has anyone ever touched your hair without invitation? Have you ever touched someone’s hair without asking?
