Wearing an afro has the most peculiar effect on people. I don’t wear my hair in a picked out Afro very often, because I favor the twist-out look. But today I decided to go for it. And I received the most interesting reactions. The number one reaction I got was smiling. Really; people I made eye contact with would just start smiling! Even though it made me a little self-conscious, it was kind of cool. At work, a random visitor stopped by my desk. He was Asian American. After smiling at me a couple of times, he leaned in and said “I like you hair like that.” I thanked him and smiled back. And then he asked, “Is it hard to maintain or something? I mean, I have friends who wear braids, but I wish they would just cut them off and wear it like that all the time!” (indicating my hair).
I didn’t really know what to say to that.
