A wig or just call me Afro Monkey

For many years after seeing someone whom I had known with short hair sporting an Afro (as my friend calls it), I always thought the person was wearing a wig. The thought itself always made me laugh a little. Not because I find it funny when people wear wigs (especially because of a medical condition). However, imagining that has always been a way to entertain my silly self. Now it's my turn to laugh at myself. It looks like I am wearing a wig. After four years of wearing my hair very short, this is the longest it's been. I am not used to it anymore and it does indeed look like a wig.
