Happy Mother’s Day + My Mom’s Hair

Happy Mother’s Day!

I wanted to do a special feature on my mom’s hair and her hair journey for Mother’s Day. My mom hair has been relaxed for most of her life. But a couple years ago she decided to transition to natural hair.

Unlike my coarse hair, my mom has very fine, soft strands and the biggest challenge she’s faced with her natural hair is styling and tangles (caused by knots). Since my sister is also natural, she has been helping my mom with product suggestions (the products that work for me don’t work for my mom or my sister).

My mom is undecided about whether she will remain natural or wear her natural hair straight (via blow drying and flat ironing). Either way, I will help her as much as possible.
