"You look like shit today."
"Wow, you look awful!"
"Why do you look dead?"
These were actual comments I got at work today. The only difference between today and all other days was that I wore my hair down, because it was finally cool enough to do so. Will told me my hair looked "unkempt," but really I had just let it air-dry and it looked the same as it always does when it's down. I guess Indians aren't used to seeing a little frizz?
The comments stopped when I put my hair up in a ponytail.
This is the opposite of what happens back in the US, where everyone encourages me to let my hair down!
