First off let me say that anyone considering adoption should never let the hair of an African American child stop them from from adopting outside their race. It
IS a learning curve, but a very do-able challenge! Ella's hair is getting to be so much fun. I love it! It is constantly changing. Here's a walk down memory lane...
August straight kind of crazy hair, would curl on top when wet. Like this from birth.
Got more and more crazy, but still straight September.
October, vanished. Never treat your child for cradle cap unless you KNOW that is what it is! Scalp eczema made all her hair fall out. I was devastated!
January. Curly fuzz, very little to speak of. Back and sides still very bald.
Today! Still very short and pretty fuzzy on the back and sides. Curl size varies. Most places about the size of a pencil and very soft.
I just love it!
*also just a side note, Ell is HALF black and half puerto rican. However her puerto rican b-mom has very curly hair also!
