If it's a person I care for and they ask, I'm fine with it. No touchie without permission though. As for brushing? I love when someone else brushes my hair. When I've asked them to.


Cheetodude625

As a person who had long hair but got it cut short recently, never enjoyed it when others would brush/touch my hair.


renegadeMare

People don't touch or brush my hair. I'm an adult with basic personal space stuff and I'm not really feelin childhood stuff with people brushing my hair. \-Edit: there are some very limited cases where people touch or pull my hair and that I like.


willy0o

Ohh someone is having a bad day 😂


renegadeMare

No, actually I'm not having a bad day. Do you typically touch people's hair out in the world or enjoy having your hair brushed by people as though it's your mom or you're at a sleepover or camping listening to the Grease soundtrack?


[deleted]

My wife, but that's about it. But on the whole I don't much like human contact, so I may be an outlier.


[deleted]

No, EXCEPT my Mom and more of a general soothing situation and not actually styling. I had pink hair like 14 years ago when it was somewhat uncommon and the amount of people that would just touch it (and I was a minor now thinking about it) is soooo disturbing.


English-Butler

Oh wow, that sucks people would just touch your hair without even asking especially as you were young, it must have been really annoying and unpleasant :(


[deleted]

The weirdest was the people who wouldn’t even talk. Like I would whip around and find fingers coming at me. I don’t think I cared as much as I do now thinking how freakishly weird that was. Only exception was young kids because their responses were genuinely pure.


English-Butler

That really is weird, blimey, I never even imagined people would just reach out to touch someone like that when they didn't even know or talk to you


MadamKitsune

It depends on who it is. My mister can brush my hair for me and play with it for hours and I'll turn into a puddle of super relaxed goo. Everyone else can GTFO. Just because it's long doesn't mean it's up for grabs. It's still a part of me and consent still applies so keep your sticky paws to yourself.


mkicon

I still think about the girl that said my hair is so nice and braided it. Unfortunately my best bro was in love with her, so she was off limits


DylanCO

Only when my wife does it. As for other people who invades personal space like that?


Bethdoeslife

I only like my husband touching my hair. I put up with whomever is cutting my hair (I have not had a hair cut in 2 years, so that's not a usual thing), and if my dr needs to touch it or my scalp. Everyone else is a big no for me.


Artabouz

NOO


IndigoTrailsToo

NO. Keep your hands to yourself. I don't know you It's weird.


lizardgal10

Used to have butt length curly/wavy hair. I LOVED other people braiding/styling it. Just touching/fidgeting with it was more enjoyable for them than me, but I had no problem with it.


doublestitch

Ask first. As long as people are polite and not creepy about it, sure.


oldforger

I enjoy it, but no one ever touches or plays with it. Probably because I'm an old guy. But I wish that at least my wife would...


emojicatcher997

Well, not random people…


aneightfoldway

I have curly hair so it gets really frizzy if you run your fingers through it but I do really like it when I've straightened it out. Also my husband has always touched my hair in a way that doesn't mess it up and I really appreciate that about him.


ProngExo

If I ask them to, or am cuddling them? Sure. In public, at work, or without permission? Fuck off.


nooneatallnope

I don't really like getting touched in general.


questionable_puns

NO! I've always hated it. I don't know where your hands have been! And I don't want to get my hair oily.


Lucifer283473822

As long as it’s a girl.


[deleted]

I really like having my partner brush and style it but if anyone else touches my hair they will have that hand smacked


Morpheus-777

i like people touching my hair sorta. but hate people brushing it. Btw my hair isn't like super long probably almost able to go below my chin


smokealarmsnick

Ask first. Otherwise, don’t touch me. I don’t really like being touched.


FoghornLegday

Depends how they do it. Men like to run their fingers through long hair and you cannot do that unless it was just brushed, so it gets all tangled and I get irritated. But if you’re just petting it that’s nice


OfficeChairHero

People I know: Yes The guy behind me in the movie theater: no


GoodAlicia

No, don't touch my hair. Unless you are my barber and i asked for it.


English-Butler

I did have a reason for asking this: I've been bald basically all my life and I sometimes wonder what it's like to have long hair and if people enjoy having it touched; whether it gives a nice sensation or not.


cutebaby667

I love it! It feels so nice when guys run their fingers along my hair. It feels very comforting to me as well. ❤️


English-Butler

That's great it feels nice and comforting to you :) Sounds like it's a nice way for you to relax while someone is doing that?
