I hope that Isis becomes hugely successful and known for her hair-raising account of what TSA did to her AFTER she had passed through the checkpoint.
And, I hope that TSA becomes known for this.
The short funny video at this link proves a serious point.
Woman has hair searched by TSA before flight
UNDATED (CNN) -- And now for a hair-raising story on airport security. It seems a Texas woman's hair was a little too big for passenger screeners. So, her flamboyant 'fro was checked for explosives! The traveler's hair didn't blow up, but her temper did!
This is the story of a woman trying to fly out of Atlanta with her hair in the upright position. Prepare for turbulence. Isis Brantley says, "I saw these people running talking about, "Hey lady! Stop! Stop! You! You, with the big hair!"
Brantley is a Dallas hairdresser who counts singer Erykah Badu among her clients and specializes in natural hair so naturally she's been growing hers for 20 years. She says, "I said, 'What's the problem?' and he said, um, 'We have to check your hair for explosives.' I said, 'You're kidding me.'"
