‘He Better Play In Something Else’: Charmaine Says Husband Neek Can’t Touch Her Fresh Hairdo, Fans Agree

Charmaine Walker’s husband, Neek Bey, appears to be having a hard time understanding that when his wife gets a new hairdo, he must keep his hands to himself — regardless of how tempting it may be.

In a playful video posted to the “Black Ink Crew: Chicago” star’s Instagram page on Tuesday, Dec. 15, Charmaine jokingly called upon her female fans for some hair help. While showing off her beautiful straw curl hairstyle on its second day, Neek abruptly interrupted her to air out his grievances. “Day two, we over here making love, and I can’t even touch her neck. Come on now, what kind of hairdo is that?” the father of one questioned. “I can’t touch your neck at least, god-dang.”

After figuratively being thrown under the bus, the reality star called upon her internet friends to see who could relate to her “no-touch” hair policy. “Ladies!!! Stand up for me!” she captioned the post. “If you have a fresh hairdo, do you let your significant other play in your hair during sexy time?! Issa NO for me!”

Neek, seemingly determined to run his fingers through his wife’s freshly done hair, was spotted in the comments section as he replied, “We’ll see whats up by day 3 🤣.” The funny clip was viewed over 109,000 times and garnered over 600 comments from supporters who agreed with the reality star’s rule, including one user who wrote, “It’s a Noooo for me 😂😂😂.” They added, “He better play in something else 👀😩😂😂😂.”

Another person complimented Neek’s respect for him and his wife’s privacy, stating, “I like how neek said making love he so respectful but Issa no for touching my new hair tho.” A third fan wrote, “Boy you are lucky you are able to touch 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 Because my favorite word after I get my hair done is don’t touch me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.”

Someone else stood firmly and said, “Ooooo no!!🤨 Not unless he’s scheduled me another hair appointment for the next day!!💇🏽‍♀️.” A fifth person echoed those sentiments expressing, “I barely want to do cardio 😂😂😂😂😂😂 #ISSANO.” They added, “unless the zelle deposit already hit the account for another appointment 👌🤣🤣🤣🤣.”

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
