My daughter was my TURNING POINT

“My daughter Karma is a curly head just like me. Ever since she was young she wasn’t happy about her natural hair because she had to always tie and braid it in school. This made her feel odd & pissed off. After a while, all she wanted was to go to the hair dresser & straighten her hair every day.
What made things get worse was that I wasn’t embracing my natural curls either; I was doing keratin, protein, hair straightening and putting extensions. I had the same problem as Karma and I wasn’t feeling that my curls look beautiful. One day, we had this Mother & daughter talk, and she started telling me: “why are you telling me to be proud of my curls when you are not showing them in the first place and doing the exact opposite of what you want me to do.”
This was the turning point where I decided to be heat free and wear my curls like a queen; it was the best move that I ever made. That’s why I promised myself

I felt there was a huge burden and it just went away.
The Transformation after being heat free made me see myself looking naturally beautiful and I became more confident. I had no idea that changing my hair texture would make such a huge impact on me and my daughter psychologically.
Karma started feeling the same and we started supporting each other by searching for ways on how to take care of our hair. We starting showing off our curls and posting on HAIR ADDICT Group and the return was such a valuable one which was receiving amazing compliments and comments.
We couldn’t be more proud of our hair journey. Big thanks to the Hair Addict for giving us the chance to speak out loud, share our stories and empower our daughters to love their hair the way it is.”
