Search Results: guys notice hair

We all know (or at least should know) that "white" or "white" women is/are the standard of beauty in society for some odd reason. I say white only because other features like a Roman nose, straight hair, colored eyes aren't exclusive to the usual western idea of beauty.

I can't tell how I look to others or if it's genuine, whether I'm universally attractive (attractive to a large group/various groups of people with different beauty standards) or just ugly.

Of course I've had the occasional people that don't find me attractive.

I've noticed hostility from girls that I've worked with. The same that I've noticed from family growing up. Girls that will lie, act funny, make smart comments or avoid me for no apparent reason.

Then there's guys that I hear say I'm pretty or compliment me but it seems like guys compliment even the most sub par women just to get sex.

I've worked with guys where I knew they found me attractive and tried to be friendly for one thing.

I've had a customer come into a store I worked at and called me pretty. At the same place my coworkers (all male) were super nice and would act weird in a good way or compliment me. One told me a supervisor from the other store that came to help was on the phone with a guy from his store and said "there's this cute black girl that works here"

I apparently don't look like Megan fox or madison beer. Nor do I look like Lauren London or Megan good.

I've never had guys ask me out on a genuine date to get to know me for me. Maybe it's just this generation. I worked at a call center & a few guys in my training class tried to hit on me or they'd just stare.

I've also heard negative comments from men and it was usually when I was dressed up going out and it'd be something like "she thinks she's a superstar" "she just wants attention " petty things like that.

The negative experiences are what sticks with me and makes me think maybe I'm not so pretty.

This dude is super hot, definitely out of my league. I trained him at work and we hit it off, we could joke and talked about our family/friends right away. We teased each other a little bit but I wouldn't say anything flirty. They put him with another trainer the next day and my boss told me he was disappointed and said he hoped to be put back with me because I was cool. Anyway, by the end of the night we were together again because the other girl left. Like I said we hit it off, but I didn't think it was anything romantic. One of my coworkers saw us talking and said if she didn't know any better she would have thought we were dating. I've noticed he compliments kinda often, usually on my nails, hair, or what I'm wearing. He always notices when I come in, he'll either lock eyes with me if it's during a meeting or come over and say hi. He also notices when I'm not there and will say something about it, (like "yesterday was boring without you"). But again, when we talk we don't really flirt, we laugh and joke but it's just friendly. Still, the stuff I've mentioned makes me think he may have an interest but he's not made any moves to get to know me outside of work, Snapchat, phone number, except talk about hanging out but I think he was kidding and he's not said anything since. What do you think?

It might be a silly question, but in my experience with the guys I know and dated a lot of them preferred my hair straight.
Some were even rude enough to ask me to straighten it permanently.
Of course a few prefer or like curly hair but they are much less weirdly enough.
I never understood why🤷🏿‍♀️ maybe they perceive it more feminine?
