Being different isn’t easy and like most kids her age, Malashia is trying to learn to embrace those differences. Not understanding the powers her hair possesses, she’s met with a pleasant surprise. She realizes the same thing she thought was a deficit is her superpower! Through wash-day and her natural hair journey, she finds confidence and inspiration, and most importantly she discovers the magic of her twisted kinks, curls, and coils!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wash day, although necessary and a cultural staple in many Black homes, can feel more tedious and dreadful than glorious and relaxing. Through this book, I aim to make wash day easier through education and entertainment for the entire family.
***The book includes a natural hair glossary and detailed wash-day steps (for children and their communities).
A children’s book teaching children and their communities to how love and care for their natural hair.
