How can i avoid being called a gringo and how do i react elegantly? Im a German living in Mexico with dark blond hair, light-ish skin and blue eyes. Thus, according to many mexicans, i am a gringo. <br> I find it quite offensive when they call me this and address me with either "gringo" or "guero". <br> What can i do to avoid this? and, if colouring my hair black and wearing a fake moustache is the only option, how can i react elegantly and/or humourously?<br> <br> Feel free to post your own experiences of this here please! tag:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.137955 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:05:44 -0800 blond european gringo guero hair mexico freddymetz http://ask.metafilter.com/12280/Phantom%2Dblond%2Dhair%2Dgrowth I shave about three times a week and have black hair, but occasionally I'll wake up to see a blond hair that's half an inch long or longer has sprouted out of my face overnight.
