The taunts don't bother her

Anymore then the  questions  do

"Why don't you just straighten it"

"Why can't I touch it"

"Why don't you ever do your hair?"

"You don't wash your hair everyday"

In response if I say anything other then SURE you can touch it or begin to explain myself or my hair I'm considered rude

But the phrase nappy headed it makes me cringe I receive more insults about my hair from African Americans more then anything ..

"You need to do something with this "

"You look ugly with your hair this way"

So my hair isn't beautiful unless I alter it's natural state?
