I COULD NOT AGREE MORE! My hair was relaxed as a child and my mother put herself on the backburner. My sister and I had much healthier hair than my mother. My poor mom developed carpal tunnel from doing my hair relaxed so I can imagine it natural. And I think we try to prevent things that will not necessarily occur. Did I feel any less black as a child? No. Am I scarred? No Do I hate myself and wish I was white? No.
I think i am developing carpal tunnel from doing my own hair
My hair was also tough as a child when it was fully relax! I deff' know what my mom was going through...especially since she thought a child without their hair done is an abomination
I think you should do anything you want to your childs hair as long as you are taking care of it. Im the type of person that thinks its just hair and your hair doesnt define the person you are! I do not believe if you straighten or relax your hair that means you do not love yourself(or your hair) but of course their are others that disagree, rightfully so.
