Was at the pool doing laps this morning and an older woman was there we were the only 2 there. She's kinda near me doing some aqua aerobics, no big deal there, good for here getting some exercise. But then a mom with 2 little kids come in and they are jumping in and out the pool splashing around having the time of their lives. This woman then says to the mom "can you control your kids I don't want my hair to get wet." And the mom just looks at her like "you're in a... pool" which is the correct response. She got really mad that the kids wouldn't cease their fun and left.

I'm still sitting 3 hours later befuddled.

Did she have some sort of weave or special hairdo? You're not supposed to get some of those wet.

Sure, but it's not like waterproof skull caps haven't existed for decades for people who want to go in a pool without their hair getting wet.

If you get into a pool and you don't want your hair to get wet and you're also choosing not to cover it up, then that's completely on you.

Someone who doesn't want their hair wet in the pool is trying to look cute in her swimsuit. Can't show off that salon job and look cute wearing a shower cap.

This is why it's important to include somebody's entire original post:

Public pools are usually large enough where the kids can splash around somewhere away from the woman. Not everyone goes in there to deal with a bunch of horseplay. If she was sitting in shallow area designed for kids then that's on her.

Quite frankly this is 100% on the woman, even if she put on a cap to protect her hair there's still a risk of the hair getting wet. She's at a pool, she knew the risks. If you don't want to risk your hair getting wet at all? Exercise somewhere else.

If she was doing aerobics, she was definitely in the shallow end.

Isn't a "weave" just another word for a wig?
That you can take off at any point?

I can get not wanting to deal with rambunctious kids splashing strangers. But there is no legitimate expectation to stay dry while in a pool.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

I mean, getting exercise is important but if youre worried about your hair getting wet then maybe the pool isnt the place to be.

No. A weave isn't a wig, it's an extension that's attached to pre-existing hair and typically needs a professional to install or remove.

Weave is fake hair that is sewn/glued to existing hair or a cap of some kind.

It definitely doesnt need a professional.

A wig is a basically a hairy hat.

While I would never expect to stay dry in a pool I'm left wondering how small is this pool where seemingly this woman and her two kids are close enough to splash one of the only 2 people in the entire pool? Makes it sound like some backyard pool.

Because if it is a decent sized pool I would think they would have enough of their own space to make this not an issue rather easily even if I do think the old lady is being foolish.

I really don't get that shit. If you don't want to get your hair wet, then why the fuck are you in a pool?
