I work in a cleaners, and while it wasn't busy I sat to do some schoolwork. One of the customers from the laudramat side of the store came over to ask a question about something and could only see my hair which is rather long and naturally curly. She called me "ma'am," and after I answered her question she apologized about it, though I told her it was quite alright and not to worry about it. However it did cause me to feel good about my coiffure.
