My son

[marla]

I have a 10 year old son who is biracial. Black and Italian. His hair is very coarse. What would you recommend to safely relax some of the kink? He wants shiney looser curls. Is there a natural product available. Would the coconut milk/lime juice concoction work? Thanks in advance.

He can try leaving a little regular conditioner in his hair. This will keep it soft and curly. Just don't use too much or it will be white.

I agree... you could also try the Shing-ling technique promoted by the curve salon (www.curvesalon.com)

My friend uses Ouidad products on her son's hair and she said that they work wonders to get the kinks and tangles out.
