Photographed by Lauren Perlstein. It's the cardinal rule of beauty: Regardless of what someone's hair looks like, thou shalt not comment. But, no matter what, there will always be someone who just has to let her opinion be known — especially when it comes to natural hair. Since some of us are still unsure where the line between "conversation starter" and "flat-out insult" stands, The Huffington Post is here to school us on the dos and don'ts.
Some no-no topics are obvious, such as asking a woman if you can touch her hair. Some are just flat-out insulting — if we didn't know better, we'd say they were made up. Conclusion: Commenting on someone's hair, no matter its type or texture, is not your privilege or your right. It's fine to have an opinion, but some things are better left unexpressed.
