Oh dude, that was nothing. The last person who commented on my hair immediately asked if they could burn my dreads "once I was tired of them."
How do I cope with the negativity? Well...first off, I try as hard as I can to never bring up my hair in conversation. Nobody ever has anything nice to say about it, and I don't want to hear any of the not-so-nice things. And when I do hear negative things...eh, I've never really cared about what others think of me, so I don't take them seriously.

My own dad said "you look like a dog's butt". Which I know is not true. Some people just grasp at whatever words come into their heads...even if it makes them sound childish. I guess it's human nature. Not everyone is going to understand. But hopefully most people will remember the standard saying: "If you don't have anything nice to say...."
