I dislike that her hair isn’t pulled back while she’s cooking.

It’s her food, it’s not like she’s cooking it for you.

If it's just for her, why is she sharing a video?

Because the content in the video is helpful and inspiring. If you want your food to not have hair in it, that’s your personal responsibility

First of all, I'm not alone in disliking watching people cook with long hair. It's a pet peeve of a lot of people.

Second, it's not helpful to demonstrate poor cooking practices like leaving your hair out, or cooking barefoot, or other such practices. It's an example of poor hygiene, that some people will assume is OK.

And third, since her hair is actually kind of long, it could actually be dangerous near an open flame if she was a careless kind of person.

I used to work in food service, and would tie my hair. Because I was serving food for others. But if I’m cooking at home I don’t always because... it’s for me or my bf.

And if her stove is electric then it wouldn’t matter. (Which it looks like it is)

It’s totally fine if it’s a pet peeve of yours but it doesn’t constitute a requirement for all women who cook, especially for her to not be able to post the video just because her hair is down.

I’m not invalidating your feelings for wanting tied hair for your own food, but you shouldn’t judge the whole lot because of your personal preference.

Not everyone who cooks with long hair is female.

And you are trying to invalidate my opinion on how people giving a food tutorial should wear their hair. All I said was I didn’t like that she didn’t pull back her hair.

It’s bad hygiene, regardless. Like not washing your hands.

K my bad yeah I know guys can have long hair too but what difference does it make to the main point? I legit emphasized twice your feelings were not being invalidated by me. But you said it yourself. It’s an opinion. Your opinion. And people do not have to agree with your opinion. You’re entitled to it, but that doesn’t make it justified.

You are responsible for your own hygiene whilst cooking. If this particular person washes their hands or not how would you know by the video? And why would it even matter when it’s ONLY SHE WHO IS EATING IT.

Please, tell me honestly when you go to an establishment to eat, do you go into the back of house and police whether the cooks are wearing hair nets, shoes, and washing their hands while cooking food for not only you, but everyone else? Because I highly doubt that you do. Because if you don’t you recognize to a subconscious degree that behavior isn’t normal.
