Johannesburg - A girl's hair, no matter your colour, is not to be messed with.
This is something that Simphiwe Dana feels strongly about.
The singer recently tweeted a series of messages to people, black and white, about her locks and the rules around it.
Dear white people
Dear white people, stop touching black women's hair with/out permission. We're not pets ??

Dear everyone else
Dear everyone else, including fellow black women, stop asking if the hair is real or not. We aren't friends

So, this is what you're not allowed to touch. Isn't it glorious?
