My anecdotal observations are that if the mom is Latinx, the kids hair is usually fly. Native moms seem to get it right too. No comment on the others.

I've seen the shame some of these kids experience, especially if they have 3c, or 4a-c hair. I wasn't adopted or come from a mixed family but in 3rd grade a group of yt kids at my new school surrounded me & taunted me bc of my n-word hair, lips, nose, color & budding breasts.

I'm ashamed to admit I wanted nothing more than to have smooth yt hair. My mother (w/her 2b/c curls) was not particularly gifted w/black hair. I cringe looking at all my elementary school pix. Eventually she started farming out hair duties to the hairdresser.

@BunneeShelton @frankieonye Shit. My white birth mom could have used this. To this day I hiss at V05. 😂😭

@NeWiilson @frankieonye 🤣🤣🤣 My ambiguous black mother wasn't much better. We were using Herbal Essences on our hair growing up. We did use hair oil though.

@BunneeShelton OMG, my niece needs this sooo bad. Her mother (also mixed) doesn't do anything to their hair other than brush it straight once a month. Terrible.

@incoderfalcon Okaaay

@BunneeShelton ♥️♥️🥰

@BunneeShelton @AzaleaDunn Yes. She is.

@BunneeShelton Thank you ❤️

@TKolb92 @anaisbetts The hair texture is different. Curly, coarse hair tends to get dry at the ends because the coils in the hair shaft prevent the oils from sliding down the shaft like with straight hair. We also may have different textures throughout our hair. Dry hair breaks easier too.
