"Why don't you use (insert weird material here, for example: rubber cement)?""Are those hair extensions?""Is that made out of real hair?"And it's not really a question, but a comment... "Looks like you have gorilla hair"

What's the weirdest question you've been asked towards your dreads?

A couple of days ago I had this lady all kinds of confused when I tried to explain to her that my hair wasnt braided. She tried to argue with me for way to long about it. I also had a lady approach me recently and tell me that I wanted to get rid of them I could use a razorblade to remove some knots without losing length. I like when people ask questions but offering to cut a strangers hair in the food court at a mall or arguing about something you don't have a clue about, both are kinda rude.

About a month ago I was at the gas station pumpin gas and an older lady walked up tome and asked where I got my hat. I was wearing my tam and I told her that I made it myself which I did. She asked if she could feel it and I said "um... Ok" I didn't want to be rude. So she asks, "So do u have long hair under there?" I replied with,"I have dreadlocks." she immediately removed her hand from my head, made a disgusted look like I was some sort of an alien or something. Haha then she walked away without saying anything more. And she walked away really fast like I was chasin her. I could not stop laughin when I thought about it later. Anyways, it's more of a reaction than a question but I thought it was worth sharing.
