Hair Asunder Down Under
(My hair is naturally a rather unusual color of red that naturally highlights due to a melanin imbalance. I am a male. A few months ago, I shaved my head for charity. A male customer comes to the counter.)
Customer: “Oh, my, you have such wonderful hair. May I touch it?”
Me: *laughing* “I hear that a lot. You should have seen it when I had it down to here…”
(I indicate my hip where my hair used to reach.)
Me: “I had to shave it all off, though.”
Customer: “Where I am from in Spain, it is very common for people to shave their bodies. No need to be ashamed!”
Me: “Oh, no… no! I mean my head hair went down to there.”
Customer: “Oh! It must have been beautiful! Still, you should consider shaving your body! Everybody on the beach likes it.” *winks at me and walks out*
