"Why isn't your hair protected? It's gonna fall out!"

[Charla]

These are the words my 14yo son just said to me! I guess I've really schooled him on protective styles! I am ALWAYS in a protective style. Even around the house I wear a satin bonnet all day. So this morning he saw me without my bonnet, and hence the above words!

So, hum, am I fanatical about protective styling that even a 14yo boy takes notice? Maybe! But dagum, I'm going to have MBL hair by 2013!

Cute! Nice to see your boy is into the natural hair! And he won't be one of the ig-nant men thinking a woman has to perm or can't be black and have long, real hair. Woo hoo!

Hahaha, how adorable! It's really good though that we are starting to let people know some healthy hair care practices.
