Having dads on board when it comes to wash day, styling and regular maintenance of curls is not only a great way for them to understand what kids need for great curls but also to spend some awesome quality time.

For years, women with curly and natural hair have struggled with their accepting their curls. A lot of this has been due to standards set upon them by society, perpetuating the myth that to be admired and be accepted into society that they must have straight hair. This has led to women spending countless hours and dollars in the pursuit of a standard that not only is unreasonable but also removes them from who they are. More and more women are beginning to cast off the standards set upon them and to embrace their own natural locks, and these standards begin at home.
