Care of African American Children in Transracial Adoptions: When You need a Stylist - Blog Entry

No need to get miffed Ed, They did you a favor! The biggest mistake you could make was to let a shop that does not specialize in African American hair do your children's hair.

When I was in college I naively went to a regular shop for extensions and they took my hard earned money and used all the wrong products and techniques on my hair. It was a mess! Hairstylists are probably the only are where I actually discriminate! African Americans (with a few exceptions) are better at styling African American hair!

I have a cheap one as my symptoms aren'tthat bed, but If I am not on top of it, I can get depressed.

Are WAHMS Winning the Mommy War? - Blog Entry

29 Jan 2007 11:24 AM

I am not wealthy, but I don't have to work. I however, LOVE TO WORK. I just love homeshcooling more, so I am a WAH-HM (Work at home - homeschooling mom). For me this is the best of both worlds as well as security in the fact that I won't go insane when the kids grow up and leave me.
