I know! Another thing I hate is when people say “Led Zeppelin rules” because what about meeee? I’m not in Led Zeppelin. Don’t I rule too? People need to stop saying nice things about groups that I don’t belong to.

I have natural hair that I wear in a variety of styles and no matter what I'm wearing (twists, afro, or straightened) the agent always has to pat down my hair. I've been told that my bobby pins set the machine off, but why? My hair isn't even that big anyway... what do they think I'm hiding in a two-strand twist?

White dude with thick red curly hair. I keep it long and pull it back in a headband. My hair is searched 100% of the times I fly, which is about 4 round trips a year or so.

I thought it was going to be sad but it was nice, I could really chose what I liked the most. When I was trying on my favorite dress the mother of another…
