Two ladies walk into a store around the same time. One is a dark hair olive skin lady and the other is a blonde white lady. The sales person walks directly to the blonde lady and says and a chirpy friendly voice can I help you find anything? After the sales person helps that blonde lady, she goes back to organizing until the dark hair olive skin woman approaches her and asks for help.
The reality of the situation is that every one is attracted to light hair light skin people, I don’t really know if there is a scientific reason for this phenomenon.
Case in point…
Money has been delegated to study the Blondes of the world.
With startling results, “Blondes Are Becoming Extinct”
Experts in Germany suggest that people with blonde hair are endangered species and will become extinct by 2202. Researches predict that the last truly natural blonde would be born in Finland, a country that brags that they have the highest population of natural blondes in the world. This study concludes that too few people carry the gene for blondes and that will not last much longer. These same researchers suggest that the reason for this is, blonde hair dye. People cannot tell who is a natural blonde anymore when picking a mate. Oh for shame. Well what’s a person to do?
Does that mean in the year 2202 two women will walk into a store both dark haired and the sales person will approach them both and ask them in a chirpy voice can I help either one of you? Or will everyone have dyed his or her hair blonde?

I am a dark one and I get the same treatment as the person you wrote about way too many times. Shame on these sales people with such tiny minds.

the fact that many go the extreme of dying mustache, eyebrow hair and shaving all the other hair off thier body makes it alot of work to pull of the natural blonde look but there are definite benefits

I think it’s an attitude thing. I usually get great service. There have been times when it sucked and I was sure to let them know.
I think it’s a waste of time feeling inferior to blonde hair white skinned people. Be yourself and demand good service. I guarantee you’ll receive it.

Maybe by 2202, everyone will be blonde? With the help of lots of hair dye, of course.

I think you and Beenzzz are both right. Certainly sales people make presumptions about who is more likely to buy a certain product and thus give them better service, but if you demand good service, you’ll get it. And if you don’t let them know that you won’t be shopping there anymore. There was a time when I wrote letters to complain about crappy service. You know what? 9 times out of 10 I got a reply that satisfied me — and I didn’t need to dye my hair blonde.
