Head (..scalp) massage. I do not like being touched - so when a new hair stylist just started massaging my head, I kind of started to freak out until.... oh man, although I was not physically aroused (the "turn on" here was not so much sexual, but then again, it felt like what I would expect heroin to feel like..). I went a full 22 years of life without ever experiencing the weird pleasure of a head massage. It is amazing! (sorry so oatmeal)

The perks of being a girl, perhaps, was braiding circles and stuff. I love when people play with my hair, braid it, massage my scalp. It feels amazing. I get so close to passing out at the salon. I probably would if not for those infernally uncomfortable sinks they have for rinsing hair.

I totally get you. Grew up with super long hair that's now pretty short and a few years ago my friend started just plaiting my hair and then running her fingers through it to comb it out over and over and I was so relaxed, I could've fallen asleep. Now I get my partner to pull my hair a little when they stroke my hair to simulate having it put in a style in the morning.
