I am just learning to "cry". I am 75. I lost my wonderful loving and nurturing Mother Dec 2018. It a year before I shed a tear. I cried and screamed for hours. I was alone which was good because I did not have to consider others; only my lose. Afterwards I am more in tune with others feelings. I am glad she warned me there would be something that prove "no tears" did not mean weakness. I was so blessed for 74 years.

Notice how they’re all around pre-teen/teen age, that’s a really important stage of life! That’s when we usually start hating our “imperfections” and feeling insecure about ourselves! I’m glad they’re learning this at a CRITICAL age

[@Serenity777Sue]

Crispy Chicken I wish I’d seen something like this back when I was a teen and introduced to the flat iron (Biggest mistake ever!)

[@ViniSocramSaint]

Actually... we start hating ourselves and feeling insecure much earlier in life, depending on circunstances we go through that makes us notice the little things about ourselves and thinking they are bad. Maybe you got narcisist parents, are bullied either by neighboor kids, teens or adults, your culture tells about an "impure" part of your body, there is an unrealistic beauty standard that must be pursued even by kids, or you are gaslighted, or you are just different, etc... But yes, telling the girls their natural hair has nothing inherently bad at all, while they are teens, and reiterating it when they are adults will create the most impact for good in their lives

[@Serenity777Sue]

Marcos Socram you’re totally right as well! I do remember when I was little and wishing to have straight here like two of my cousins and some friends from school. I see this also with one of my nieces who has much thicker coily hair. I remember her telling my oldest daughter who has straight hair that she wishes she could put her hair on her head. This broke my heart and I had to tell her all hair is beautiful and that you just need to learn how to work with what you got. My middle daughter has super curly hair as well and she always asks me why her hair is curly but her sisters is straight. That’s a whole other story there about genes for another day tho 🤪

“ it’s better to cry, there’s more room outside than in.” The hairdresser seems very knowledgeable and wise. I’d love to get my hair done by her just to sit down and have a conversation. The vibe she gives off is so warm and welcoming.

[@respondingtoit]

I watched a show about hairdressers, salon technicians, and massage therapists being regarded as counselors and therapists. They have changed lives: saving people from suicide, prevented them from committing crimes, changing life paths, finding GOD or inspiration/spirituality, gaining confidence, connected each other with jobs, resources, and food services since they had a large network, educated people about hygiene, helped victims of domestic abuse and more. You just feel better walking out.

[@evessawallace174]

I thought the hairstylist was a bit rough when it came to actually combing the hair. Not taking her time to gently brush through or comb through the hair is what causes breakage.. Curly hair isn't something that one can just break through. It requires gentleness and patience. However, I did take note of the amount of girls that she had to complete. I would hope that she'd be more gentle if she only had a few to work on. At any rate, she managed to get them all smiling in the end. Which meant each one was satisfied with the results. She couldn't do my hair b/c I am much 2 tender headed for her hair treatments. However, I do agree that having the girls altogether in a teaching environment was a great way for girls to learn about their hair. I enjoyed seeing some of their little attitudes fade away as they became more confident about their hair. Yes, each one is unique and that's really all that needs to be taught in schools, other than all the racial non*sense, surrounding hair.

[@unpaidwaystarroycointern]

rachybaby72 well,, with the mixed girls a lot of white mothers of biracial children can’t be bothered to/don’t know how to do their hair. while the black girl’s mothers are probably used to taking care of relaxed hair(and i’m guessing one of the girls had her grandma do her hair but she passed away). i went natural at 14 but my mum had relaxed hair at the time so i learnt how to take care of my hair from youtube videos. also,, they could be adopted by non-black people.

[@samiam9925]

I love that she has girls with different textures together, teaching them to respect and do each other's hair. Some have looser, longer curls and some shorter 4c hair... But she has not elevated one girls hard above the other. Sometimes hair insecurity comes from within the community, and it's taught at a young age. She taught these girls that they have to respect and uplift not just themselves, but each other

[@samiam9925]

@cherrydoll sorry for the miscommunication, I didn't mean to imply that 4c hair is always shorter. My hair is 4c and long. I was just stating that some in the video have short 4c hair, and I was so happy they were being elevated in the video bc societal Norms tend to disparage girls like this, when their hair, long or short, is just as beautiful ❤️

[@Jbelovedson]

That’s a nice thought but you’re forgetting that a lot of the mothers of that age group are people born in the late 80’s and mid-90’s. It was either get a relaxer or they were too young to experience the black hair movement in the 90’s and an up tick of weaves and now wigs. I was fortunate to grow up with women who did their own hair both natural and with extensions. When they wore their hair natural it was beautiful, if they had extensions or weaves it was beautiful. The message to me was always I was not constrained by my hair and it didn’t define me. Again I realize now as an adult that was rare. I tried teaching my niece and she wasn’t interested so now she has a terrible relationship with her hair and unfortunately we are thousands of miles away for hands on experience.

It's important to teach girls especially ones with Curly, Kinky, Coily Afro Texture hair how to Love, Detangle and Care for their Hair to keep it Healthy & Beautiful as is. This is Nothing new; just popular to this Generation who came into weave & "straight is better Era". If more people on TV, Movies and Red Carpet would Rock their Natural Texture this acceptance of ones Natural Self wouldn't be On & Off throughout the Course of this Century. By the way 'Kinky' is Not Negative. Never has been and Never will be. It's always *_people who grew up Hating their Hair who have issues with the Kinky Or Curly Afro hair being called anything but Curly._* Eveyone doesn't have Curls. The Standard of Natural Beauty is Not Visible Defined Curls. Some people have Wooly Hair that cannot hold Curls No matter how moisturized & Set the hair is.

My children are mixed race and when I had my daughter I didn’t just give up . Researched and researched . Wanted to know how to care for my daughters hair. I have curly hair but completely different texture from my daughter. I have 4 children and I learned how to understand all my children hair types. I’m sorry, the only thing I cannot understand mothers saying they don’t understand their kid hair. You r the mother you have to go above and beyond for your kid. I spent endless hours , weeks and months researching and practicing. Even learned how to corn row and braid. I now do all my children hair and many of their black friends at school think that their mom is black because of the way their hair is braided and maintained. And they are surprised when they find out I’m white. Where there’s a will there’s a way.

[@tashawnlove5928]

Thank u and I mean this fr so many ppl go and have kids and give up on they hair it gets matted and broken or they put perms in they hair our hair represents so much and we still barely know how to take care of it ourselves

[@thequeenadamsshow276]

I would not expect you to "understand mothers saying they don't understand their kid hair." Although you have learned how to do your children's hair, several generations of Black women grew up with processed hair because that's what they were taught until they decided that nothing was wrong with their natural hair. Some Black women like me sometimes wear wigs, but keep our hair natural. Our hair has a history that is rooted not just in our scalps but in politics, race, rejection and pride that you, as a non-Black would not identify with. Even if you studied it, it would only be head knowledge. So, save the criticism about that which you have no idea and talk about what you know.

[@chosenpeople5881]

Well they are yours do well

[@ee8546]

Thank you for learning how to take care of their hair. I'm a multiracial black girl and when my parents divorced my mom stopped caring about my hair. I was 9 and that's when I noticed how ugly I was at the time, i had acne, ugly face shape, jacked up crooked teeth, and even worse no one to do my hair. So it was dry and damaged and was in an ugly unkempt ponytail. My wavy hair pattern disappeared and all I could see was a large clump of frizz. So I resorted to having it straightened every 2 weeks so I could just have one less thing about me that wasn't ugly. As a 15 year old now. I still straighten it because it broke off because of stress and damage, somehow it's not damaged anymore, but until I can get it back to waist length like it was before. I'm going to keep straightening it every couple weeks like usual. But I just want long hair again so I don't have to worry about the shrinkage and the weight of my hair will make it look less voluminous.

The Queen Adams Show Well just like she did she went and learned how to maintain it without giving up. Are you saying that black women are not capable?

[@CandiceEden]

This made me emotional-seeing the insecurity on their faces and even the longing to have another texture they deemed “better” was written all over their faces and it breaks my heart. What this woman is doing is so necessary and I’d encourage every parent or guardian with children (boys as well) that have Afro hair to do this exact thing with their kids. I try to always praise my little girl’s hair when doing it and avoid comments or descriptions that could have negative connotations because I never want her to grow up with the notion that the texture of hair that naturally grows from her scalp is difficult or a problem-that would indicate an issue with her Creator and God is perfect and makes no mistakes. So instead of saying things like “your hair is so hard to comb, or too thick” etc I instead use terms like “your hair is so full and thick, or you have such a gorgeous head of healthy hair” because it matters. I know it starts with me and I often correct my mom and others who grew up in a different era that celebrated the looser, longer strands deeming it “good hair”-we have to change the narrative and develop the confidence in our children before society gets the opportunity to try and dismantle it.

This is beautiful. She’s not only teaching them how to properly care for their hair but is serving as a mentor. My heart goes out to Helene and I pray God continues to bless her.

I stopped relaxing my hair in 1999 when I was in high school and never looked back. Tightly coiled hair, for me, is actually a blessing. It can be coiffed and styled in ways straight hair can't. If I want long straight hair, I can flat iron my own. But if a straight haired person wants to wear a natural hair style, they cannot. Our hair is a privilege, not a burden.

[@TheBingleichwiederda]

DaPopoloinParadise straight Hair is as Natural as coily Hair.... you are right that curly Hair is easyer to be versitale but straight Hair can be made coily in the Same way coily Hair can be made permantly straight. We should all learn to ecept our Natural Texturen no matter if it is coily and Prone to matting or straight with no Volume at all. Instead of excluding each other and pushing others down to uplift ourselves we should Start seeing the Beauty and good in everyone! Sorry for spelling, english aint my mothertoung and i am still learning

You are so right..leaving your hair in its natural state affords you so many more options--switch it up and be all kinds of *moods and attitudes*

Just ask the mouse it’s true. I have extremely straight, heavy thick straight hair and grew up wishing to have natural curly hair. During my teenage years, i thought it was the most boring thing in the world and could never braid or style it. It’s so straight and heavy that any style, even pony tails, will undo. I am still infatuated with curly hair (hence why I am watching this video) but I learned to be thankful for what I naturally have too :) So I do agree, if we all uplifted each other, the world would be a much nicer place to live :)

[@donnamck8324]

These lessons are so important for girls at these ages. We have to uplift each other rather than dragging each other down.

The 4C hair shrinkage is real. I get frustrated when detangling my hair sometimes. Absolutely loved that video showed all types of hair

[@indiaprosser2129]

[@KLB1218]

Why? Saying you don’t appreciate your shrinkage undermines your natural curl pattern. As if having long natural hair is better. Short hair is amazing.

Lolo we can still understand you guys the only difference is the accent and maybe a couple words for example melon d’eau and pastèque it’s the same thing with different names

[@MsYolandalee1991]

I like this, this is something every black girl should learn. My mom taught me how to take care of my 3c hair and then later I taught myself. I never used to wear my hair out as much but now I do and I find taking care of it is manageable. It’s a routine like everything else. I embrace my ethnicity. Why should we be ashamed by society for who we are and allow labels to be slapped on to us like products!

[@potat099]

@@niam394 Nah, it's just directed to people with type c hair. It might be more helpful for younger people but it certainly doesn't matter. People of different races can have different hair types so race really doesn't matter at all here. Plus that the gender really has nothing to do with anything here

[@niam394]

@@potat099 do you just ignore what led up to the natural hair movement like literally black women have been shitted on for years by every other race for their hair so they created this movement to uplift and teach each other how to properly take care of it.

Am I the only one that shed a tear or two?? 😢 I really wished someone would’ve told me my hair was beautiful growing up but I’m so happy that these young girls get to experience that. I hope that Nancy keeps doing this work. God bless her!

I am so jealous of the volume of their hair. It is like a crown. It is so striking.

I was heartbroken seeing these young girls struggling to like their hair but in the end the joy and smiles on their faces were priceless.

This is some beautiful sisterhood. I love how Nancy corrected the young woman when she talked down on her own hair, and they were able to assist each other with each others hair! Very powerful!
