“Since I was pregnant, people were waiting for my baby girl to have straight wavy long hair just like mine! Everyone was in shock when they found out my daughter is a curly head and they were like “Why does her hair look frizzy? “ But I never saw it that way.
When I take Natalie out, people sometimes go like:
“You can get her some kind of product that would treat her curly hair texture or maybe you can straighten it or cut it. It looks damaged!”
My reply is always : “I LOVE it that way; I won’t change it and #My_daughter_will_never_know_relaxers because her hair just fits her perfectly! “
It took a while for people to understand and accept the fact that she is naturally curly and I will do nothing about it but make her fall in love with it. I started to buy some products that would help make her curly hair healthier without turning it into straight hair or changing its texture. People now give her the sweetest comments & compliments because her curly hair is simply a part of her personality and identity. One of the most historical moments that I really feel proud of is when her curls are defined. Actually, many people go and pay lots of money just to reach this level of hair definition after they have straightened & damaged their hair.
What really makes me happy is, people around us especially our relatives began to accept the way she is and actually fell in love with her hair even though they criticized it at first.
I always pray that her hair texture doesn’t ever change or turn straight.
Natalie and I just follow some hair tips for better hair growth:
✅ I do weekly hair masks for her including The Hair Addict’s Indian Recipe with Rosemary oil to fill up any hair emptiness.
✅ I detangle her hair when showering while the conditioner is still on and NEVER after shower.
✅ I put some homemade Flaxseed gel with a few drops of Pumpkin Seed oil and some Rosemary oil.
✅ I use a few drops of Lady Botanica’s Red Bliss after shower to reduce fizziness.
✅ I dry her hair using a cotton T-shirt and never with a regular towel as it is harsh on her hair.”
