yeah, there really should, esp. if someone's looking to adopt a kid, y'know? gotta take care of that hair somehow, and nobody knows how to take care of different types of hair other than their own.

i can attest taking care of your own hair isn't viable either if your parents let you down there

Ugh! It was awful when my mom would do my hair...
She'd always brush it with a *horse hair* brush.... while my hair was DRY! And she'd yank the brush through my hair from top to bottom...

She did sooo many things wrong when doing my hair!

Even with the texturizer in my hair, my mom still didn't know how to care for it.

When I turned 18, I shaved my head and started over from scratch.
Now my hair is much healthier and longer than it has even been with those chemicals in it. >:D

Luckily there are a lot more resources now than there used to be. I found a few blogs just by typing in "How to care for mixed hair," most of them it seems written by bi or multiracial individuals with their own dos and don'ts.

beats mine. i was given those small black plastic combs a few times a month. i tore out teeth all of the time and it would get so bad i would start crying just thinking about brushing my hair. you want to know how to jumpstart toxic masculinity in a child? tell them that combing your hair doesn't hurt and tell them that they are liars and weak if they "pretend" it does

i am glad for it. it is a help if you can actually find credible resources should you have the wherewithal to know you should look


you know, this reminds me of a guy who went to the same school as me. his hair was as long as mine(below the shoulders) and he kept it out in a de-kinked afro. i was super impressed with it at the time because it was massive(to the point where the top was starting to bow under it's own weight) but thinking back his hair was a frazzled mess. it was really thin and unnatural looking and the flattening bow at the top almost certainly wouldn't have happened if he hadn't straightened it

that sucks, chocobo.

eh, everything that helped me be more empathetic and kind to the disadvantaged(like say children) was worth it because i am not giving it out again

ehehehe, less than 50 posts to the milestone!

I thought you were going to say 'it was worth it because I like to give' xD

hehehehe, that is the punchline to the sausage conversation not this one XD

sausages in wraps are groundbreaking, fight me.

Groundbreaking???
Maybe nice, ok, delicious but you're kinda exaggerating

i dunno mdom, if it is big enough a sausage could totally break things XD

it is protected by the wrap! So it can't break things as long as it's wrapped!

oh man, it totally could. the wrap is just so no sauce gets on any of the things it touches

void, why do you want to break things
let's discuss it first
violence later

void has been on the internet too long. he just can't enjoy a sausage anymore unless it is causing property damage
