Single Mom with ethnic baby- hair books?

Question

I'm haveing an 1/2 african american and 1/2 white baby. The bd is gone forever, and i'm worried i won't know how to do my childs hair.

Does anyone know any books on styling ethnic hair. I have no idea how and i'd like to read up before my baby is born. Thank you in advance for your kindness!

Answer 1

dont worry about it at all.

for sure your kid wont have nappy hair. it will be curly but not like a regular african  american.

so you will be fine with regular products for curly hair.

Answer 2

There is a lot of ignorance on this topic. You need to google black hair care, and actually talk to BLACK women and biracial people on hair. The two posters who responded to you don't know what they are talking about. Her hair will need to be washed ONLY once a week, and it needs to be conditioned with products designed for African Americans daily. Use a wide tooth comb on the child's hair.

Cosmetologist that's Black

Answer 3

Just do her hair normally. More than likely her hair will be good!
