do you get WAY too much attention from people??

Just going on a bit of a rant here....

My mohawk is about 13 inches now, and i put it up for st. paddy's day yesterday. Walked into the bar and for literally at LEAST half an hour, i couldn't even have a single beer because of the huge amount of people coming up to me and wanting pictures and asking me the same questions over and over agin.

I appreciate the curiosity and comments and such, but holy crap....... my friend laughed and told me that i was like a celebrity. I even had some ex UFC fighter guy hitting on me like ALL night because he thought my hair was so awesome.

Now, that might sound awesome to some people. But i can be pretty shy, and i don't want so much attention. I dont have my hair like this to get attention from other people. i do it because i like it. it's for no one else but me. But i rarely ever put it up anymore because people just wont leave me alone about it.

My hair is finally at a length now that i can part it down the middle and have "normal girl hair" which my family appreciates a lot (like if i go to some fancy family function thing with them... they're embarassed to be around me with a mohawk)...... But i totally don't feel like myself when i put my hair like that. i feel just like everyone else. sooo i avoid doing that.

And now i'm considering cutting my hawk a bit just so people don't bother me as much. But i don't want tooooo >__< lol.

yeah, really dont know what the point of this post was... i guess does anyone else feel like this??

I just got mine and it's not even that long and I get gawked at all the time, haha and the girls/instructors in my cosmetology class won't stop touching it [you'd think people who worked with hair wouldn't be all that weird about it.] It gets annoying, but if you're gonna do something different then the norm you have to expect the attention.

Wow I just pretty much said the same thing as everyone else so that wasn't much insight. Guess I should read before I post.

Meh, more of the same view is better than one, it makes the opinion seem more valid.

that is true sir. OH and side note... I was taking a walk today and counted how many people stopped what they were doing to gawk at may hair. I lost count. It was sorta awesome being such a distraction.
