Hey there I am a cosmetology student who is graduating in Dec. For your daughter's hair, use a shampoo made for blacks because other shampoo will dry it out. You usually can find it at like walmart or Sally's beauty supply(if u have one where u live) and use a conditioning such as hair mayonaise. For her skin, u can use a deep moisturizing lotion. Coco butter is the best. I hope I helped!

This board isnt even worth it, i dont know why i waste my time. It is truely amazing that this baby is 4 months old, and this mother has never once mentioned her concerns to her childs doctor, because if she she had, she wouldnt be asking them here.. but thats just my opinion, But ya know what they say, opinions are like a******s, everyones got one, and they all stink.

bye bye now! Very Happy

I agree Melisa. How many babies are born mixed and you don't see them labeling them as mixed baby or label themselves as mixed baby momma.

What is wrong with asking about other races? every person and every race is different. women are more prone to breast cancer than men, men are more prone to baldness.
Melisalee, I think your post was down right rude!
I am not even going to name my race because it's irrelevant how ever If I had a baby of another race I would no nothing about how to take care of things like hair or what they need to be checked for maybe it's all the same maybe it's a little different duno. we all are the same, we're human people but our gentics are all very different
I think it's a fair question this is a parents support board for help and support
Robyn you may want to check with your babys doctor with your health concerns maybe there is a book or something you can get in regards to her hair
all and all good luck to you all babies are beautiful!

I think that the manner in which the post was made was the issue here. There is nothing wrong at all with mixed marriages and the children they have. I must admit that when I read it I did not know if she was serious or someone that found this site and decided to make a crazy post.

People just need to relax. Everyone is so quick to jump all over someone else these days.

But her last post if anything shows that she is not the most mature person in the world. The issue could have been diffused rather than tossing more fuel on the fire.

just my opinion.
