I LOVE MY HAIR

Sesame Street has been buzzed about a lot lately. Between Katy Perry keeping her (Oscar the Grouch) Cans covered, to Grover's Old Spice Parody, Sesame Street is the place to be. 

That brings us to today. It is brought to you by the word HAIR. Sesame's head writer, and puppeteer, Joey Mazzarino with his wife have adopted a little girl from Ethiopia named Segi. 

Segi has recently made comments that she would like to have long blonde hair like her friends. Our good friend Joey has responded to his daughter the only way a good Muppeteer should: with a Sesame Segment on HAIR, and how we should all love our hair no matter what, because it is OUR'S.

WEAVE ME ALONE

So I had the TV on today and Oprah popped up. Good thing, I needed a good estrogen fix. Chris Rock was her guest and he has made a documentary about hair. Black women's hair,  white women's hair, they are all getting weaves and wigs and die jobs. I know I have worn my share of weaves. All the white women want blonde hair. Most black women use relaxers or a weave. It is a billion dollar industry!! They showed one salon that even had a layaway plan for wigs and weaves!! A layaway plan!! It reminded me of this fabulous woman I stood behind at Disneyland once. I wonder how much this weave cost her? Woops! How did I know she had a weave??

URSULA MINOR, URSULA MAJOR

I get out of my car the other night at work, and check myself in the mirror before I go in. I realize I should fix my hair. When I go into work I go and spike it up a little, and I think I am all good to go. I greet a few guests, and catch one lady checking out my hair. I said, "Yeah it's in one of those faux-hawk things, but I probably look like Ursula the Sea Witch from The Little Mermaid." She burst out laughing, "I didn't think of that, but now that you mention it......" She laughed until she left an hour later. I guess it's time for a haircut.......
