04/26/2008Can you tell a black guy "I like ur hair?" even if he has dreds or braids or whatever?
- When we refer to hair we think white people's hair, but his hair is like short dreds. So he wont think Im a complete white gurl (even tho I am white) if I say I like your hair? Maybe he has braids, Im not sure. (I dont mean braids like corn rows, not the ones that are braided to ur scalp. I mean braids like black girls have long ones.)
Go to this website below, thats the type of hair he has but its A LOT shorter and obviously he's not Lauren Hill.

So would they just be short dreads? Should I say: "I like your hair?" Or should I say: "I like your..(dreads/braids)?"
- Best Answer:i agree with the others, even though its dreads its still ahir so just say i like your hair, im sure he will be flattered
plus what if he doesnt consiter them dreads and you tell him you like his dreads and he gets mad and says, "they arent dreads!"
- Answer:lol, Seriously? African American hair is not called something other than "hair". There's no specific word for it, it's just hair... Although it's courser than white people hair, it's still hair. Feel free to say whatever you want. =)
- Answer:We've had freedom of speech for how long now? I'm sure he'll take it as a compliment either way you word it out.
- Answer:Ya! y r u so afraid? Anyone would take that as a compliment. Plus that ahair is super skikin (cool)
- Answer:yeah.. why wouldnt you?
- Answer:Just say I like your hair .. it is hair, right!?
