It is coarse, but can easily be softened after a wash and drenching her lochs in a softening product. These days I am twisting her hair and applying a balm with shea butter on it to encourage hair growth, keep her hair soft and limit breakage. So far so good.

In my search for more tips on the internet, I discovered recent sites that have cropped up to help out parents like me:

I also discovered in my search, this boy, above who was apparently threatened with expulsion in 2007 from a school for wearing his ethnic hair in cornrows, essentially for having nappy twisted hair! How racist is that?
