Ok, I admit to having done that. Well, not ask how she did it, but touch it. One of the girls I worked with came in one day with the coolest hair and I have to admit I was entranced and wanted to check it out. Is that so wrong?

Yes, you're a mean bad horrible person.
I used to get this a lot as a kid back when crayola colored hair wasn't a common thing, and I can still remember one particularly flamboyant guy at the makeup counter at bloomingdales showing me to his co-workers like some kind of a doll because he was so fascinated that I had hair to match my lipstick, nailpolish, and sweater. A little wierd, but l not offensive. I still get it occasionally now, often from black women. It's more of a curiosity about the unknown thing than a racist thing in a lot of situations.
