Love those curls!
"Embracing your natural curls is essential to self-acceptance. What a gift to be able to start children off right--loving their textured hair from the jump--with this beautiful, information-packed celebration of curly kids!"--Peggy Orenstein, New York Times bestselling author of Girls & Sex and Boys & Sex
On its surface, Curly Kids is a creative, practical handbook about curly hair: how to care for it, how to style it, how to solve problems like frizz and knots. But it's also a book about empowering your kids and helping their self-esteem, because how we feel about our hair is more than follicle-deep--and that's especially true for curly kids who are known to go through bouts of self-consciousness and straight-hair envy.
So by helping you and your kids learn new techniques like the Curly Girl Method of "co-washing" (using conditioner to cleanse the hair) and following an easy set of curly dos and don'ts (never "blow-fry" curly hair), Curly Kids delivers a powerful promise: Teach your children how to love those fabulous curls--and with Massey's help, those curls will be fabulous--and they'll have the confidence to love all of themselves.
Includes: The nature and science behind curly hair Names for every curl shape What to tell the hair stylist Recipes for gentle rinses, washes, gels, and detanglers How to sleep with curls Special curly hairstyles for sports Plus true tales of Curly Kid inspiration
