Re: My 13-year old's hair troubles

-





Rest assured that if it alters the hair texture in any shape, form,
or fashion, then there's definitely harsh chemicals. There isn't a
chemical that's good for the hair that changes it from it's natural
state. I believe you may find that you love letting your daughter go
natural. And the benefits will be amazing, as well as the result.
She's 13 now, imagine the healthy head of hair she'll have as an
adult if you choose the natural route. I can't begin to tell you how
much I regret relaxing and using chemicals in my childhood and early
adult years. I love my beautiful fro and the attention I get-
negative and positive. The more I see black women balding or
spending excess at shops to maintain a perm, the more I fall in love
with my napptural crown of glory. For inspiration, go to
www.nappturality.com
