This beautiful head belongs to my daughter. She is mixed. Her hair can be quite difficult to do. I decided I needed to further my education to learn how to take care of her hair. I was at my witts end, because her hair stayed knotted up, taking hours to brush every night so that she could show off her natural beauty. Many nights she screamed as I tried to tame her hair. It was too much to bear. I benefitted greatly in the 1100 hours of class that I attended. It became a pleasure to do her hair, as I learned the secret to keeping her hair manageable and properly conditioned(coconut oil, yes, coconut oil works miracles) I just wish it was still easy to do. She now thinks she can care for her hair on her own seeing as she is ten years old. However twice a week(sometimes less) she will break down and come to me to fix her hair. I had to cut it not long ago as she had went so long without taking it out of a braid that it became a locked matted mess.
