I don't think I've ever seen my mom's hair not straightened but I used to have stick straight hair that has developed a curl of its own over the years. When it was straight, I'd do anything to get some kind of curl in it, and now I go to the hairdresser every few weeks to have it blown straight. <br /><br />My little girl has very curly hair and I wonder what role it's going to play in her self-image. Like you, I won't be allowing any chemical straightening under this roof. And why yes, she has good hair! Not a damn thing wrong with it. (What is with that "good hair" thing. Makes me mad.)When did I become my Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09229236677862122055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-80552675227310191092009-11-07T19:24:10.486-05:002009-11-07T19:24:10.486-05:00It's nice that you kept a record of your roots...It's nice that you kept a record of your roots.

The whole "pretty hair" thing used to send me into the highest levels of "pisstivity" until I embraced the reality that, as their mom, I had a front row seat in the influence arena where my girls are concerned. Marley and Sage have two different hair textures, and they both have locs. I still get the "how come her hair is so soft" comments regarding Sage, and I use it as an opportunity to educate people on appropriate and inappropriate statements IF my children are within ear shot. I tell my girls each day how beautiful their hair (and the rest of them, for that matter) is, and always will be because God decided that long before they got here!

In my opinion, I love all styles and types of hair and do styles that cross different ethnic heritages. I love the creativity in them all. <br /><br />BTW you were an a very cute little girl :) Have a wonderful day!<br /><br />Brianna<br />www.girlscurlshair.comBrianna Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12211563385978711780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-61580209024273414892009-11-06T10:16:23.698-05:002009-11-06T10:16:23.698-05:00Maybe it's the white girl in me, but I never d...Maybe it's the white girl in me, but I never did understand why Brown women (I don't want to use African American because you are more than that!) did such crazy things to their hair.
