    Do you get more compliments or questions about your dreads from white or black people.

    i personally have at least one black chick compliment my hair every day, while all the white people stare at me in confusion. Actually had a couple honkies tell me my hair looked like a birds nest, pahah.

    There are almost no black people here... just a lot of white people who don't want to be white.

    But I never hear anything about my dreads anyway since they are quite common around here.

    The only compliments I get is off you guiz. No one has ever given me a compliment in teh real world. Similiarly I've only had two negative comments in teh real world. One from a white old lady saying I was disgusting and vile and I should be ashamed of myself and one off a black lady "Girl, why you tryna be black and all that."

    People just leave me alone, sometimes they have a good stare but I don't even reckon they're staring at my hair if they are I don't realise.

    So to sum up. Neither black or white people have anything nice to say. And they are equally negative

    I've only had one person that I can remember comment/compliment my hair and they were white. No random person has insulted me. So I guess I'm on the win side. =)

    There is a black dude caretaker person at my uni who sometimes walks past my desk and says "eeyeeaa rasta girrrrll" So I guess that is a compliment. Another black dude called me rasta.. Erm white people wiiiise its just people asking questions. I have had someone in the SU come up to me randomly and say "just wanted to say I LOVE YOUR HAIR" so yuh. Most the questions are about the bit of blue felt I have welded into one of the dreads at the front. Dude its as if they have never seen felt before xD And they have to touch it. FECK OFF!

    girls, guys, young, old, black white... i hear a lot of good things about my hair.

    i get real ignorant comments from older white guys and really old conservative white people.

    superficial people who judge based on appearance and appearance alone. i call them "judges". the guy down the street from me saw me waiting for the bus and talked to me, then i took down my hair and he said was gross to not wash my hair and that his wife is black and he thinks its disrespectful. he is a "judge". he didn't get to know me he just judged me.

    No black people in Newfoundland except for me and a handful of African immigrants. African people can't seem to understand why a man would have long hair, and white girls always say that they love my hair, but I'm not exactly good around girls, so I just mumble "thanks" and kind of walk away. Smooth, I know.

    Ive had all races and ages comment on my hair. usually its young white kids that say dumb things though. Over the summer we went to yosemite and there was this kid who was probablly around 18? He kept following us and doing the "run in place" reggae dance while singing "Ganja Mon" whenever my husband looked at him. Oi Vey....the kid almost got punched in the face. My husband doesnt take ignorant comments very well. Ive had Rasta's call me Emporess before which is always flattering. =]
