I have a two year old daughter and I have watched hair grow from the time she was born, cradle cap and all, until now and it is beautiful. One day I was putting a perm in my mother in-law's hair and my daughter said "mommy put it in my hair". I responded "No I will never be putting this in your hair it is beautiful just the way it is. At the same time I had to check my self, how will I be able to explain to my little girl why she can't get a perm if mommy has one, it just would not be fare. I realized that my daughter will be emulating me and so I have to be an example all the way around even when it comes to my hair. So I am getting off the creamy crack to show my little girl that she does not have to look like the pictures in hair magazines or on TV our hair is beautiful in it's natural state. I am liberated through my daughter so I am thanking her for making mommy realize how amazing my own hair was and give the drive to go ahead a do this thing.
