Why do braids make people think of Pippi Longstocking?

Question

Every time I wear low braids (EVERY TIME!) someone, anyone comes up to me and either pulls at them or lifts them up and goes, "Pippi!" usually at school.

It's just funny, especially because I wear them low and loose and not sticking out of my head!

Dammit, Longstocking, why'd you have to ruin it?!

Answer 1

Hahaha, I know what you mean. But whenever I where low loose braids, my dad and uncle call me Pochohontas. =/ lol idk. I think low loose braids are mega cute though =D

Answer 2

Answer 3

I have long red hair and one year for Halloween, I dressed like Pippi. I used wire to make my hair stand out. It was really fun, but I can't live it down I still get called Pippi.
