This one gets me man, and is the reason I feel bad for some biracial children with white mothers. No idea how to do the hair. Sometimes you see biracial kids with the white parent in Rite Aid looking in the hair care aisle, and mama picks up mousse or those all-in-one shampoo and conditioners*shaking my head*. Poor children. They always have just one big ponytail that is mostly bush.
The other day I was watching Law & Order- they had a white mother with a black child and the child's hair was done PERFECTLY in neat plaits. I thought to myself- ah the magic of television!

When I was living in North Cackalacky about 10 years ago, my white housemates, a married couple, took in two biracial children. I remember the husband half calling out to me for help because B., the little girl, wasn't looking too good.
Understand that I've had my hair done by my sister, a cosmetologist with nearly 30 years of experience, or by professionals. So I'm not great at doing my own hair unless it's freshly relaxed.
But I stepped in, put some oil on B.'s hair, blow-dried it and made it look respectable.
