Beauty & Style - 14 July 2006

I am a Black female with braids, and I am constantly amazed by the number of caucasions who will just ask me all kinds of questions. Does it hurt? Is it all my hair? How long is my real hair? Does the ponytail hurt? Can I touch it? What's it feel like? Do they ask other caucasions with longer hair is it theres? Do there ponytails hurt? And would they walk up to another caucasion and just ask to touch their hair? Most of the time I just laugh it off, but sometimes it is really annoying. Especially when they are perfect strangers I may see in the elevator at work. ( I work in a professional building) I'm not trying to downgrade anyone, I'm just curious as to why they don't see where these types of questions are personal and invasive. Or do some still believe that black people don't have the right to privacy? Thanks for letting me vent!

I know that in order for my skin and body to be healthy i need to drink eight glasses of water a day. However it's very hard to do this and i often end up going to the bathroom every five minutes. Have any tips on how i can get myself to drink eight glasses a day...tips on how to make it easier? Thanks.

...but I don't think she should. (For my moral reasons.) But, what are some reasons why she shouldn't get one? I mean, besides the fact that they are permanent.

I always cut my hair really short (spikey) but now I wanna keep my hair long. I have not gone to the haircutter lately, but my hair is getting out of control and uneven. How should I tell the haircutter to just even my hair because last time they just cut it really really short even though I said just even it out? ( i seen people cut the sides really short all the way around, but leave the top long, and the long hair covers the short part..what is this called?)

I have wanted to buy out a Mary Kay consultant and wanted to know "how do you know what the expiration dates on the products are?". I know some items have an actual date but others just have codes. Is there an easy way to figure this out?
