Hot Weather May Bring Needed Changes in Hair & Skin Care Routines Jun 8th 2012, 08:00 Change in the weather, often means needed changes in our parenting, especially if we are parenting children with diverse backgrounds and cultures. It's important to remember the changing needs of children with darker skin tones. This includes skin care and hair care. I have heard many adoptees share how much they love for their adoptive parents, but wish that their new parents had more knowledge about black hair and skin care needs. We are fortunate to have access to more black hair care information these days. So, hopefully our children will look back at past photos and cringe at the stuff we all cringe about - clothing styles. But, they won't look back and cringe at the lack of proper hair and skin care. _____________________________ Suggested Reading: Considering Interracial Adoption Beat the Summer African American Hair Blues Skin Conditions and Children of Color 14 Ways to Focus on Culture How Do You Make Your Child's Birth Culture a Part of Everyday Life?
