Happy Girl Hair

One thing that seemed daunting when we started the adoption process through Ethiopia was hair.  How would I know what to do with it, especially if the Lord gave us a girl??  Well, I'm pleased to report that so far it's actually been easy!  Don't get me wrong, my girl's hair isn't always tame.  But really... is mine?

One of the things I wasn't expecting is that our kiddos' hair doesn't need to be washed nearly as often as a white baby's hair would. And there are tons of resources out there with tips on everything from products to styles.  Here's a personal fave: Happy Girl Hair, from a mommy of two Ethiopian girls.  I'm sure that as our sweet pea gets older I'll be a regular visitor to the site.

So if you've been intimidated too, don't be scared of the hair!
