Summer Natural Hair Plans For Kids

The school year is almost over, what better time than now to start thinking of what to do with the kids when it comes to their natural hair. You might be thinking of putting your child's hair in a protective style because of all the outside activities they will be partaking in, swimming especially. All this is good and dandy, however, have you considered using this time to educate your child in how to care for their natural hair?
