"Well thanks," she laughed. "I kind of like it now, but not so much when I was a kid."
"Did you get teased a lot? What would kids say?"
"Oh yeah, other kids would always pick on me and call me names like "orange-head" or "red," it was pretty sad."
I laughed with her, mostly because I was amazed at the lack of creativity from the kids at her school.
"Well, I'll bet you like it now," I said.
"I love it now. Most girls want to have this hair, red and super curly. I can't lie, though . . . I would love to have straight blond hair. I would trade for that any day."
Question: Why do girls always want hair they don't have?
Because we don't know what it would be like. We see girls walking around with flawless hair and what our hair to be that easy too. We don't see the problems other women have with their hair, just ours.
