Ethnic Puerto Rican Hair

So, a few days ago I went to Sally's beauty supply as I am in search for deep conditioner. Yes I, Minda, am finally trying to tame my mane. I like my hair to air dry, but, I get quite a bit of frizz, and shelack is not really reccommended.  And as Victor the stylist so nicely told me, not everyone has my mom's hair, "you need to use products my dear."  
So off to Sally's I went and I guess my face told on me so the attendant asked me if I needed help. HELP, ME?? why, yes... So I told her I wanted a deep conditioner and she was very nice and began to explain to me the different products; and then paused as she looked at my hair for a moment and then she said, "well i just want to make sure I don't give you something that is more for ethnic hair."
I gulped for a moment, and I told her oh yeah... while I was thinking "Ethnic hair??" What do you mean ETHNIC Hair... I'm Puerto Rican! I'm Ethnic. RIGHT?!
And for that matter are we not all one ethnicity or another? So, how is it determined whether someone has or does not have Ethnic hair?

Maybe she just did not know that I was Latina, we have all the ethinicities in us...perhaps 'cause my hair was not Puertorican Red #5, or because I don't sound like Rosie Perez or my hips don't move quite like Shakira's, But I am a Latina.  I will steal a line from my sister Ely's poem for Puerto Rican is not a Color... but we definitely do have many ethnicities mixed up in there.. so while, I may not have the kind of hair that many of my African-American Counterparts have, I do have a bunch of ethnicities that make up my Ethnic Puerto Rican Hair.

Well I am just thinking out loud! So, bunny what ya thinking?

Be blessed,
Minda
