Oh goody! I'm wearing this, btw:
Fashion bindis (the stick-on, sparkly kind) are warn by Indian women of other religions (not all Indians are Hindu! There are Muslims, Sikhs, Jains, Catholics, Buddhists, Jews) and its not seen as appropriation. It's seen as following fashion. There's a reason they are called "fashion bindis."
According to the many Indian people in my life, Tony's mom was dead on and I am sick to effing death over all this hand-wringing.
How is long hair disgusting? Assuming it's clean and healthy, and the person isn't trying to strangle you to death with it... how does another person's hair impact you at all?
And this is why I have no patience with most "stylists." Who the hell gets to decide the Universal Rules Of How Long Your Hair Is Allowed To Be?
I find it hard to believe that someone with butt-length hair doesn't know some tricks for getting out even really stubborn tangles.
