Hair

Do you think it's okay to tell someone if their hair is a mess? Is that rude? Does it depend on the circumstances?

It depends on the circumstances, especially how well you know the person and how you're saying it

It definitely is rude in a lot of circumstances

Only if that person is a close friend or relative.

Depends on the circumstances. How well do I know them and do I know how they will react if I tell them something.

It's like being fat. I'm sure that they already know that their hair is a mess, unless something like a bird's nest or a localized tornado suddenly fell on their head. Then you can tell them.

It depends. If it clearly was NOT supposed to be that way (like, their hair clip has partially fallen out of their bun, or the tie to their braid has come loose and they didn't notice) and you can tell them nicely and semi-privately, I think it's not rude. Same as letting someone know they got ink on their face or their pants are unzipped. It's nicer to have a brief moment of embarrassment with one person, than to embarrass them in front of many people.

But obviously if you're like "WOAH BRO UR HAIR IS SHIT!" when someone has an ugly haircut or a bad weave or greasy hair or something, that's rude.

As someone who has naturally messy hair and has tried everything known to man, it's rude.

If it's something immediately fixable like my barrette fell out, then yeah okay tell my but if my hair is frizzy and it's humid out then please be quiet because there is nothing I can do.

Same. My hair's curly and even when I put all kinds of creams and gels in it, my hair's always a bit frizzy. I don't mind if someone tells me that my bun's loosening in the back or some bobby pins fell out, but I can't exactly do anything about the frizziness except maybe dump a gallon of gel on my head.

Yep it's essentially a choice between either having some frizz or going with a wet crunchy look.

My curls are also not even or always completely curly so I have a frizzy curly/wave/some random strands of straight hair. I've done everything to it, and some days you really just don't want to spend 2 hours on your hair and give up.

Some people do just naturally have nicer hair then others, I have friends who spend 5 minutes on their hair and it looks perfect.

I like the general rule of "if its something they can fix in a couple minutes right there tell them, if its not you're just being rude."

So if its "their hair was messed up by the wind and they could just pat it back into place" go ahead, if its more "they would have to wash it, brush it and use product to fix it", don't say anything.

Agreeing with everyone else with the if they can quickly fix it yes, if not then don't say anything. With the exception of if they ask. If I ask how my hair looks, I want an honest answer. Maybe a nicely phrased honest answer, but an honest answer.
