Kinky Chats With Mommy...

~Why do you want to showcase your natural little beauty?

I want to showcase her natural beauty because I want other moms/grandmoms to know that their Kute Lil' Kinkies can be naturally beautiful too!  You don't need relaxers to manage their hair and handle their beautiful locs of hair.

~How do you encourage your little one to love their natural hair and natural beauty?

We encourage her to love her natural hair and beauty by allowing her to "assist" in her hair styling, teach her about natural hair products (yes at four yrs old).  We compliment her natural beauty and let her see other natural Kinkies on television, in magazines, and in the real world so that she knows kinky hair is beautiful hair!

~Are there any tips or advice that you would like to give other mother's about doing/taking care of their child's natural hair?

Tips and advice that my daughter and I want give are: If you use rubber bands, break them off instead of pulling them off so you don't break the hair.  Depending on the hair type, ouchless rubber bands may work on your Lil' Kinkies hair.  If you do a ponytail, pull her ponytails more to the middle of her head, instead of the top, and you won't have edge breakage.  Please comb from the ends to the roots and invest in a great detangler.
