She stroked her daughters hair and said “I love the way this feels” and her daughter quickly went to stroke her own hair and give it a flip 😭
my fav part of the video. ♥
🥰🥰🥰
Shes so cute 😭💕💕. 11:40
That did something to my soul. 😭
That's what I thought too. It was the cute little flip get baby did after feeling her hair. Like, that's right. I know it too.
Not only has this lady adopted these children but she’s clearly done her research on how to care for them properly, and that, that is respectable.
Hell yeah
@Kimbyrleigha Hey as an African American woman it made me laugh even harder I loved this and all the dislikes AKA HATERS or unwoke ass people y'all people need something betta to do...on some real shit..."sorry to get "ghetto"", but this white lady did a AWESOME job with her daughter " and I'm a person that has in a way kinna felt away towards people that adopt many children let alone being a white man/woman adopting lots of African American babies..."O they just want them for the money" or, "they just want them to prove a point that there not racist"... However, sadly many do ,do however this lady here from my point of view she just loves her children and you never know maybe she can't have kids huh or maaaybe she just loves helping a child get out of a existence that they were in and now blessing them with a Life worth living these beautiful babies sadly at the end of the day weren't but under adoption because they were in a great environment hunny let's be honest here ok... YOU ARE DOING AN AWESOME JOB MAMA👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💯💯💯💯💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING HUNNY...AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR BABIES 💯💯💯💪🏿👍🏿...
FROM:A BLACK WOMAN
@English Garden black kids are getting adopted all the time it's just the question of the people that adopted them are they good people or doing it for the wrong reasons
My daughter her is rough and I leave it alone lol 😂
@@deannabentley1922well said!..... the child seems loved.
Last year alone so many black children were killed at the hand of a black parent or step parent. I Give you kudos to what you said. And this woman props to taking the Care and love in what she is doing.
There is so much negativity online, that this was such a relief! Two women showing respect for different worlds and their common ground while still expressing their proper opinion. Loved it!
Yes!!! My thoughts exactly. We need more of this. Loved this video and the one that is discussed.
This is why i love my Nigerian sisters. some ppl will intentionally look for a video where the woman did the hair badly to push negativity and stereotypes.
Absolutely. We need more of this ❤️❤️
She's outright passing judgment over the mother's parenting skills. That's RUDE.
100% agreed, instantly subscribed because of all of that love and respect! ♥️
Even as a white woman with curly hair (3a/3b) my mother had no idea what to do 40 years ago. Her reference was her own thin straight hair and my super thick curly hair got a TON of brushing and damage until I was a teenager and had a friend with curly hair to show me what to do.
Videos like this showing others how to help their children with their hair is amazing. I love it.
My cousin had the same hair and she had the same treatment from her mum. She only learned to brush the 💩 out of her hair as a way of trying to neaten it, and all it did was create a massive puffy mess.
My mother buys the worst products for my daughter. She is half Tamil and has super thick, dry hair. My mum buys her the cheapest ‘kids’ shampoo and conditioner and buys her the smallest, tiniest brushes for her hair.
I’m like - ah no she needs super moisturising products and WIDE tooth combs for thick hair…
Same
Same! My mother would brush my curly hair from root to end and then get frustrated and took me to a hair salon and had it all chopped up. I had a terrible view of my natural curly hair because my mom's hair was always straight and I didn't learn to embrace my curls until I was a much older adult. It's just nice to see a mom care about her child's individual needs ❤️
I'm 28 (mexican) and I am learning how to do my wavy/curly hair. My mom has pretty straight hair and my dad has a mexican fro. My kids are blaxican and for some reason I find their hair easier than my own. Probably because as a mom I prioritized them over myself.
I don’t have curly hair if I did I could just ask my cousin and my nana because they both have curly hair
Christy is not single. She has an amazing and supportive husband. He’s Filipino. They adopted 5 children through foster care. 3 black kids and 2 Asian mixed kids.
Yes and I think I remember the three black children are bothers and sisters . And the Asian mixed are are too.
Ohgod that's even more wholesome 🥺
more potential parents need to be open to adoption, but ESPECIALLY adopting siblings. usually, every effort is made to keep the kids together, but it can be hard to find anyone willing to take on multiple kids.
@@TheHoneycomb5 The twins are bio siblings but the younger black girl is not.
Thats frickin dope
I’m a balding white dude and youtube has been recommending me a lot of these black hair videos, and you know what? I’m down with it.
Best comment eveerr
@@younggouda6764 agreed LOL
Lol It was recommended to me too and I'm white and I never watch videos on hair really so no sure why I got it. However. I still watched it, it was interesting. Maybe they assumed I was black because I watch a lot of videos about Ghana, Gambia, various African tribes such as the Masai, etc.
Must be getting you ready for the future so you know what to do
🤣🤣🤣
She WAS the foster daughter and was adopted because she did not want to send them back into system when no family stepped up. Woman is a champ.
As a black woman, I really wish my mom had been this gentle and sweet with my hair. Also, I wish my mom complimented my 4c hair more and not made me feel like it was “bad” hair. Good job white mama!
Good job mama*
I’m fully black and this white lady loved her hair more than my African mom loved me. She literally combed my hair like I caught her cheating or something. Respect to her
I'm sorry but the way you worded that was hilarious
LIKE YOU CAUGHT HER CHEATING WTF I DIED
😂
Okay, so I'm sorry for the way it went down for you growing up, but I'm so glad that I wasnt the only one that died with the "like I caught her cheating".
its next level when you have a dad who serve in the army and jumps into your hair screaming and yelling at it even
My white mother experienced racism with me in the south. what changed her perception of my hair was going into 2 white salons and them ignoring then saying they can’t do my hair. She got courage and walked across the street to this gay brotha who took her shopping and showed her how to touch my hair. After that, my mom had me going to school with beads, braids and barrettes. Thanks mom
And thanks to the gay brotha who helped you 👩🏽🦼💨
Everyone should have a "Go To Gay " they be knowing style, makeup, hair, etc😄
Your mom warms my heart. She’s a queen
@@salma-ym6bq everyone should have a gay friend. Because they're usually very knowledgeable about fashion, hair, and makeup.
My parents black father and mexican mother were told they would have problems by having kids in Michigan 1981 is when I was born. People can be bold with their ignorance. I have left"salons" in tears as a young lady. The women would looked angry when I would visit a white salon. Making me feel bad. I uplift my daughters curls.
I’m a mommy of a black daughter whose hair texture is similar to the little lady in the video. I definitely took notes of this hairstyle and the technique because it’s super cute!
I'm an ex foster/adopted child. I'm glad another Brown baby girl isn't thrown to the streets and has a fighting chance, no matter the cloro of a person's skin. Long as this parent loves and cares for her she has an actual fighting chance in life. The world is a cruel place. Stop seeing race and see face. This is nothing but good, beautiful and uplifting ❤️. Stop shaming one another and heal one another
So beautifully stated!!
I see race and face diversity as so beautiful. Isn't that part of getting along, seeing each other's unique beauty?
I am a transracial adoptee too, I agree. A parent's love exceeds colour and cannot be taken for granted. My Mum did the same for me when I was a child, she learnt how to do my hair and I am grateful to have had that experience ❤️❤️❤️
we need to see race lol. seeing race is why this mother is able to gracefully care for this child.
The schoellers adopted a girl similar
They're a white couple, and daughters name is Tyanna
They're on CZcams
The Schoeller Family
The best thing is how positive the mother talkes about the hair. The girls will internalize it and grow up loving how they look.
Yes, so true. And it is so important for that little girl to hear....instead of: oh my god your hair is sooo dry, and short and hard to handle etc...
Maybe it’s a different technique to take care of the hair...but she is a gorgeous little girl with beautiful hair. Please tell this to your girls.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life
ahh I know it makes me so happy to see
YES, you can really feel the love! 😭🥰
Yes I'm not black but I remember my mom and grandma used to rip my hair with a brush and say it was so thick and ratty and now i fry it every day with a flat iron cause I hate that it's so frizzy
Note the baby isn't crying from having her hair pulled out of her scalp by a rough ass brush. Ima show this video to my mama.
😂😂😂 let us know what she said or her eyes look
🤣🤣
Right 😂 some black moms need to watch her lol
Lmao
🤣🤣🤣
This mom clearly enjoys doing her daughter's hair. And she does a beautiful job. Also very impressive that the child is calm and able to sit quietly while having the hair combed. Great job, mom!
That's bc her mom never gets impatient & hurts her & then goes 'that didn't hurt.'
As a biracial child, I am so glad my mom learned how to do my hair. Never put a relaxer to my hair, only used heat like once in a blue moon, and taught me to love my natural hair. If a Filipino woman with bone straight hair can learn in the early 2000’s, so can everyone else who chooses to have Black and biracial children, especially in a day and age where this information is more accessible than ever.
Any mom that can do her daughter's hair without them crying... is a great Mom.
Yesssss I have a niece she doesn’t have curly hair but her hair gets very tangled and idk y my sister-in-law has to be so hard on her. Poor girl cries and I just can’t take it. I’ve done her hair and tried to show her how to detangle her hair without it hurting that way her mom won’t be able to hurt her and she won’t grow up thinking that’s normal. I remember giving her a bath and doing her hair leaving it all soft and detangled. Blowdrying and braiding it so she could have beautiful waves the next morning. I do love a good fresh wave so beautiful ☺️
@@SelenaOlalde My hair is same texture try using "Carol's Daughter
Mimosa Hair Honey Shine Pomade" it will make her hair soft control fizz and smell so good easy to get tangles out make sure to grease her scalp too! With some hair growth oil to help with her hair journey I did this after my big chop 2016 and my hair is so long. Best of luck to you both ❤❤❤
i only used to cry because i was tender headed but i did enjoy getting my hair done.
@@PRETTYCHANEL585 Thanks so much! I will def check it out and give it to my sister-in-law hopefully she will use it. If not best believe I will be doing it 😊 I really appreciate the advice 😌
So my mom is a bad mom cuz I cried when she did my hair?
Me, a white girl with neither curly hair nor children, at 6 am: It’s recommended so I’m gonna watch it.
Same but 730am
@ARAYA GARDNER 9:40 for me but i love to watch these videos bc it interesting or just in case i foster or adopt children with hair like her childs.
It's 10 am for me
that is me except i am not a white girl, i am Mexican boy and it is 7 am
same tho
I love that there was absolutely no negativity! We need more women like this praising other women and lifting each other up. Spread compliments and love!!! I am a white woman with thin plain hair and I love watching videos with hair care and styling for people of color. It's so interesting to me and I think it's so cool how there are just endless possibilities and styles that can be done. I think both women in video are amazing and the little girl is champ it's gotta be hard to sit in one spot for a long time for a little one a little cutie to!
You're praising someone for doing what they're supposed to do!!! 🙄 She adopted her so yes that's her job to do!!
@@AnastasiaBeaverhousn If you always need a reason for praising someone your life is probably full of negativity 🙄✋
Everyone need compliments wether they're doing what they're supposed to or not ✨✨
No hair is "plain". Every person's natural hair is beautiful because that is how they are supposed to be.
@@AnastasiaBeaverhousn don't be rude
When I got pregnant with my bi-racial child, I immediately started looking up hair care. I ended up with a son who's hair has very open loose curls. Even still, we had to test different products for him because neither his dad's hair stuff or my hair stuff worked well for his hair.
Do you research. Test products. Yes, you're going to throw out full bottles of some products because they don't work. It's still worth it.
Trial/travel size products to test! ❤️
Yea trial and error products I get that
I wish my mother did research for my hair when having me and my sister (mixed race black and white)
I have 3 a,b+c and my sister has 3c to 4b
We take care of it ourselves
For A son, its BEST SHORT
She’s a mother who simply took the time to understand her child’s needs. It’s really that simple. Black/white or whatever. She’s a parent who wanted to meet her child’s needs. I honestly don’t see much evidence that many parents do that so I’m impressed.
I hate to say it but it true... I have seen quite a lot of little ones (black) with hair that looked like their caregiver/parent did not give a care about it. :(
Regardless of color, this cannot be reduced to "meeting her child's needs"... she went above and beyond. Give credit where credit is due. She could do two pigtails and call the needs met. This right here was real love and so heartwarming.
Omg i never thought of that....giving different parts of the scalp a break. but makes absolute sense.
It is amazing the things we realise when we actually take the time to consider and think on things and the things we overlook or dont even think of because we are too busy and too rushed.
This... Is.. AMAZING!!!!! THIS IS THE KIND OF THING THAT MAKES ME THINK THAT WE HUMANS HAVE HOPE! WE ARE NOT THAT EVIL! WE CARE FOR EACH OTHER!!!!!! WE ARE EVOLVING AS A SPECIES!! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
She's one amongst Many! I have seen Heard and know of Several instances of Neglect Ridicule and jealous behavior towards Black Ppl's and childrens Beautiful Versatile Hair!
My adoptive mom and dad learned Spanish when adopting my brothers and I. They bring us back to Guatemala every year to see the country. My mom learned how to cook Guatemalan food and learned how to do my hair. I am forever thankful for her. Because I will always be in touch with my culture now
Edit: I didn’t expect so many people was going to read my story. Thank you for all the kind comments ❤️
That is beautiful 🥺 Bless ya’ll!
That is wonderful!
that make cry, i'm crying now 😭
Your adoptive parents are very intelligent!!! Every adoptive parents should be like yours.
Every child must know his or her own (real) roots to become later a balanced adult.
(Sorry for my English, i’m French speaking)
omg thats so beautiful. is she fluent?
I love how she asks her if she likes what she'll put in her hair. That is so loving, I feel like a lot of parents forget kids are their own individual, and just do what makes them(the parents) happy. She's also very gentle with her hair. I'm not black so I can't talk for the black community but I know that mexican culture treats kids really badly when it comes to pain, I can't remember a single day in my childhood were I enjoyed getting my hair done. Every time my hair was done I would end up crying, I would be hit with the comb and even cursed for having it tangled. Iooking back I guess that contributed to why I hate having long hair, and ended up cutting it all once I turned 18.
Ikr, I’m a Mexican with curly hair, everyone in my family has straight hair, so nobody knew how to do mine when I was younger. And yes, my mom was pretty harsh styling my hair, but in her eyes I was just a crybaby lmao.
@@Yourmom_y yeah, my hair is just wavy(?), so I can’t imagine the pain of getting curly hair tangled and pulled 😢. My mom got so angry when I got rid of my long hair 😅.
exactly bro- the only other girl with curly hair in my family relaxes hers and the guys cut their hair really short so I've just been stuck with messed up hair for 15 years lol- i just found a routine that actually works for me about 2 months ago and I've been practicing different ways of doing it and just trying to learn my hair for 3 years now lol-
I'm white and went through a similar experience with my mom. I had crazy thick curly hair but I was very tender headed and my mother wasn't the most gentle with me. Getting hit with a comb and being told to shut up and sit still was so normal for me. I never really took care of my hair because of the negative experiences I had growing up even to this day as a woman in her mid 20s I still have trouble taking better care of my hair. Videos like this really help me and inspire me to learn and try so I can give the people I love better experiences that I did 😊
Yes, we have to remember that our kids are all their own human, I'm a white mom with white kids and I started asking my kids what they wanted to wear when they were around 18-24 months old. I gave them choices appropriate to weather conditions (no t-shirts when it's -30°C outside) and I've had no crisis for dressing them up this way. Same for my daughter's hair. I have to do it everyday, morning and night since they are so long that she sits on them. She chooses what I do with it, ponytail, braids, 4 strand braids, etc. Except days with PE, then it's automatically a braid to keep it out of her face and less risk of it getting stuck somewhere while running.
I just sent this video to my nearly 20 year old son (who is white) because he wants to be a hairstylist. BUT he wants to specialize in ethnic hair. I love how you uplifted this mama ❤️
That's a great thing because who knows what sort of job he may land after he gets his license; he could wind up on film sets or catering to a community where his skills are needed. He's good to keep an open mind and be versatile. He will always have a wide variety of clientele. I applaud him.
They are her adopted children. No she has a husband she's not single. She definitely took care into knowing how to do her hair
Yesssssssss!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏
She cares so much for them.
@@karebear78 yes. Your name is so much like mine lol
She is their mother. She knows a lot about her children's hair. She and her husband are awesome parents!
Agreed!
I hate that you guys normalize saying “ if a white person adopts a black kid, she better know how to do their hair “ and not acknowledging black people have black kids and do not know how to do their hair 😭😭
Thank you! Know how to do your kids hair period.
nah fr though💀💀💀 i'm black & my mom don't know how to do mine
This woman knew exactly what she was doing
Good point!
Amen. Honey as a Black woman I see it daily 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My mother had no clue about my hair and it was a MESS! I wish these "how-to black hair" videos were available back in the 70s! This woman is doing a great job.
Back then, it was relaxers, blow out kits, and hot combs 😋
As my granddaughters are mixed , and I watched them when they were little. Getting them ready for school was an adventure especially dealing with the hair. But I learned ,and even today now they are teenagers I make sure I take them to a hairdresser who knows how to work with their type of hair.
God bless Ed
to see a little girl who will never know the pain of having your soul slowly dragged out of you with a paddle brush is a breath of fresh air
Not the paddle brush!!! Lol.
Truth LOL 😂
Lmfao 🤣
This comment! 🤗🙌🏾🤣
That ol' paddle brush... was used more than for brushing my hair when I pissed of my mom.
I love the way she handles her daughter's hair. Shes very gentle, she has the proper tools and oils for hair daughter's hair. And the little girl's hair looks beautiful. Who can hate on that? I'd rather see this then these white women with black or mixed kids who let their children run around with their hair all over their heads, barely brushed, let alone combed,etc
reminds me of a video I watched the other day (I guess that's why I was recommended this one). it was a video documenting how this little girl's hair was restored after her previous foster family didn't take care of it. it was all matted, and sooo sad. they had shaved the back of her head 'cause they didn't know what to do with it. apparently it was all really traumatic for the little girl, but she finally ended up with someone who was willing to put in the work, get help, learn, etc. I think the channel was called Be The Village. seems really wholesome so far.
@@embarrassedcap that’s really sad, poor girl. It’s hard to relate when you’re white and have low maintenance hair. If you’re going to adopt/foster a child you would think about doing extensive research about them since a child is a life time commitment and they won’t know about themselves if you don’t teach them and educate yourself first.
I'm a mixed girl with cousins on my stepdad's side who are also mixed. My mom (white) always tried her best to make sure our braids were properly done, we had the proper tools, etc... However... my step uncle has three mixed children with a white woman who barely takes care of them, much less their hair. It's always tangled and I don't think she even knows the first thing about protective styles.
@@embarrassedcap I don't even let my dog's hair get tangled thats so irresponsible in america you can adopt a kid so easily in my country it take years
Yeah but not combing or super taming your child's hair is a look. As long as you wash it thoroughly.
Okay, but when that sweet angel said "okay" after her mom said she was going to turn her around in a minute made my heart melt.
This woman truly loves and cares for her daughters, and it shows. I absolutely love that she is doing more than one to two ponytails. 💕 That little shake her daughter did while she was showing off the back part. She's building that confidence too. 👏
I was adopted by my white family as a baby and the respect I have for my mom bc she learned and WANTED to learn how to do hair that was very different from hers- I’m so proud of my mom for learning something like this my mother has three adopted black children and it means the world to me 💜💜💜 update: I cried bc of how amazing you and this women are
Extra props to your mom if she didn't have many sources or internet!
OMG I cried too.
I was adopted by a black family. And before they adopted me, my foster mom had damaged my hair so bad because she didn't know how to properly take care of it. My adoptive mom did help to restore my scalp and get my hair right again.
I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one who cried. Except I'm the white mother.
Your mama sounds lovely I'm glad you got the family you deserve sis!
As a biracial girl with a white mum who raised me solo for a long time, I'm so so so thankful that she learned how to look after my curls. She never scraped my hair back or damaged my hairline, she never relaxed it to make it easier to 'deal with'. She discouraged me from straightening and taught me to love my blackness, she used protective bobbles and products made for me.
Thank that lady everyday!
Same my mom got my hair and my younger sister hair to are butts it was very long then I ended up cutting it cause it gave me headaches it was so heavy I regret cutting it lol I miss it
I wish my mom was like that, she did the exact opposite💀💀
Girl I wish !!!! My uncultured white momma did not LoL still love her tho 😂😩
damn that makes me emotional... my mom is black..
I have watched this lady a few times before and what I love is her natural relationship with the daughter, this is not a prop for CZcams, she is truly mothering her daughters and I love how she knows how to do her hair, you can tell she did the homework! Bless her heart
I've watched several of her videos in the past. They adopted 4 daughters and a son that they fostered first. What I loved most was in a video where she called her girls' hair their crown.
She frequently says her daughters hair is "her crown" and I'm soft.
It personally hit home for me bc they're weren't many black girls for me to befriend when I was younger. And I grew very envious of blonds and brunettes bc they could do so many things with their hair and it was always so pretty and long and flowly. And I grew self-conscious and hated my hair. Now that I'm older I with I could just hug younger me.
@@alexisroman6573 African hairstyles are so beautiful and their textures, hope you love yourself now. I used to hate having coarse thick hair (I’m Asian btw), my hair texture made my hair stay up even after untying my hair, very messy and everywhere. Got damaged easily etc.
I don’t have kids I’m not white out black but hey ima watch it I do have curly hair tho... def not any where close to this extent
@@alexisroman6573 I'm white with only slightly wavy hair and last year I dyed my hair pink. I had a conversation with a black girl from my friend group who said that she was so sad that she couldn't just pick a colour and easily dye her hair and that her hair options were so limited. We're German btw, this is important because the black community here is much smaller than in the US. We started talking about hair and we both realized that black girls don't actually have limited options per se, they just have limited access to people who really know how to care for kinky hair and there's also limited acceptance for hairstyles that work better on their hair. It's actually so sad, because yes, the care is more time consuming, but the number of style options is technically just as big as for people with straight or wavy hair...It's a privilege I never realized I had before.
Love the way her little one flips her hair with confidence.
There are Karens... and there are Christys. People should be more like Christy.😍
okaaay!
OKAY SHAKETA
yes 🙌
@@yeshuaischrist9951 your christian and racist?
Christy has Christ, be more christ like, OOh I'm all over it!
This was just so special. I love that the mom seemed happy doing her daughters hair too, like spending that time most likely bonding with her daughter in that way. It was so cute.
I know this is meant to be a commentary on a white mom doing her black child’s hair, but it made me wonder what races her other children are and what she does special for them to make them feel loved. This woman obviously makes time for her children.
Definitely checking her channel out!
Also this is first that I’ve heard of your channel too, and I love how happy you were to see the proper representation. I love to learn from these videos, so thank you for sharing!
I don't know if you ever did check out her channel. But I am one of her subscribers, so I can tell you what I know about her family.
She has five kids. Her oldest are a pair of boy-girl twins (Ace and Avaya), her middle child is the girl in this video (Eliyah), and then her two youngest are girls (Lilly and Tali, I think they are one year apart).
Ace, Avaya, and Eliyah are back. Eliyah is not biologically related to Ace or Avaya.
Lilly and Tali are biological sisters, and are three quarters white and one quarter Japanese. (I remember this because in one video she talked about how it was funny that Lilly and Tali are three quarters white/one quarter asian, because if they had biological children they'd also be three quarters white/one quarter Asian. Her husband is half Filipino).
@@MultiKswift She’s pregnant now too! 😭💕
Loved this reaction video-it warmed my heart. ♥️ I know you may not be aware, but many white women have also grown up with rough treatment of their hair by their moms. Yanking on tangles, teasing, over-tightening hair bands or pulling too hard on braids; hurting the scalp with hard brush bristles or stiff combs; using unpleasant chemicals and sprays; not taking input on what the kid wants their hair to look like; cutting hair they want it long (often because it’s TOO MUCH TROUBLE for the mom to take care of) or not allowing it to be cut when the kid wants it short; yelling at them to sit still and stop whining! I can only imagine how much deeper all that hits for black children, when negative cultural messages are being reinforced, as well! So I super appreciate this wonderful, caring mother’s respectful and sensitive approach.
My mum grew up in the 50s and she had this treatment to. She was a russian orphan baby adopted to white parents. The pain and the curlers and the cutting and......... So true
I hear ya. I have the easiest hair to take care of and my mom STILL had no idea what to do. I inherited my hair from her! If I was born with curly hair, she would've just shaved it, I swear.
I'm super duper white, and I inherited my dad's Incredibly thick curly hair (I was cousin IT for Halloween and all I had to do was brush it). My mom had fine straight hair. She brushed my hair when it was wet directly from the scalp (not from the bottom up), blow-dried it every time I took a bath, straightened it with a curling iron, and chopped it when it was resultantly dying from such treatment. I always wanted long hair growing up, but I ended up looking like a frizzy Dora the Explorer.
Y'all this lady out here tackling racism one tangle at a time and I am here for it! God bless this baby and her mom.
Yeah, Great Mother and Sweet little Girl.
LMAO
YES, YES, YES.
Bc she’s doing her child’s hair she’s ending racism?....
@@ladybre555 she said “tackling”....
I, a childfree white woman who can't really do even my own 2a hair, have no idea how I got here, BUT the effort put into learning how to properly care for her daughters curly hair shows. This is the kind of wholesome shit I needed today.
I am also a white woman with no kids, and I love this. 😂 I hope I can adopt someday, and I would be a thousand percent open to adopting kids of different races from my own and/or with vastly different hair types. Bring it on!
I’m a white lady too, have no idea how this video got on my list to watch, but I’m so happy it did! Loved it!
Me too girl. Idk why it just made me tear up a little
lmao I'm white but I really just love watching people do hair. Maybe because I'm bald
I am on the same page and I agree! So fascinating and beautiful!!! :D
i’m a white woman with curly hair and even seeing the mom being so gentle and caring to her daughters hair is making me so emotional
I absolutely LOVE this video! This is what my friends and I have been saying for years. If you're going to adopt or foster children of color you have to take the time to educate yourself on how to care for them. This lady has clearly done the work. I love that the hairstyle was age appropriate and that she included her little girl in the process. Just a really cute and informative video.
As a white woman with pin-straight blonde hair, and no children... I have no idea how I landed on this vid but I have to say that ALL of this video was so wholesome and I'm here for it!
You got sucked in!🤣😂 But I pray it blesses you in the future

I definitely love this video, the original one
and she's white. omg how is it possible for a white person not to be racist????????????????????????????????????????????????
@@cartswhat8177 Fr like what are these comments? Yes she loves her daughter. Obviously🤦🏻♀️
Why do people when it comes to white people being nice to black people and vice versa make such a big deal out of it? As if it would be such a rare thing and they only waited for a tiny evidence that the mom is using the girl and then hate on the mom for not treating her poor adopted black daughter with respect. No one would celebrate the normal behavior of a mom and daughter if they were the same skincolor.
She adopted her....It's her daughter.
I love that you’re giving her props. My sister (yt) has 3 mixed black children and they all have pretty different hair from each other and my sister has the most yt thin hair ever. She works hard and does her best and it’s nice to see other people appreciating the work mothers like her actually do.
This is amazing because there’s Black people out there who don’t even know how to take this much care of their own hair
You got Karens
You got Beckies
And then you have Christy's
Here for the Christy's
Christys, Katys and Kimmys always down for the get down. And Jazmins 😂
A friend of mine has a two foster black daughters. She’s been kicked out of a few parent groups for correcting and offering advice to other white moms. Some really don’t want to give effort or change even when they have black kids.
we love the christys
YAASSSS.
She's the mom to her daughter yet you want to put her down for her actually caring about her daughter's hair. Go home!
White girl here with curly hair. Nobody in my family has curly hair so my mom didn’t know what to do with it. She would just violently brush the everloving crap out of it and rip all the knots out. It was so crazy painful. Mad respect to this mom for being so patient and gentle!
SAMEE
SAME BUT MY MOMS NOT WHITE AND SHE HAS CURLY HAIR BUT SHE WOULD JUST BRUSH IT AND IT WAS SO PAINFUL
I got my red curly hair cut off when I was 4, my mom had no idea what to do with it. Granted I looked like "Annie" but this was in 1960, girls mostly had nice long hair
SAME
Same here. I have the classic Jewish curls, but my mother did not. Half the time she'd rip a brush through my hair, or she'd let me go to school with a birdsnest. She cut it to my ears when I was 7 because it was too annoying and I apparently "Dont deserve long hair if I can't do it myself." I always hated my curls and ruined it with heat toolsfor years, so I've been trying to learn how to handle it as an adult
Omg the part about how children internalize how parents handle their hair, hit me hard and took me straight back to the dreaded times, when my mom would violently force a giant paddle brush through my newly shampooed, dessert dry, non conditioned, type 3c/4a hair.
I would, of course, whale and cry out in pain and agony, only to be told to behave and not be so dramatic, because I was only acting, according to her..
I'm white, so is my mom. But she has wavey hair and no concept on how to handle curls, by ANY means
This is EXACTLY what happened to me. Sometimes it was even a comb!
My mom would do so much with my hair.i have 4c hair and always so tight and painful so now I live the wild curly life...still taken care of just won't catch me keeping my hair restricted

Do you ask to touch your friends hair at school? If you wanna make a friend walk up to a black girl your age and ask about her hair. If she isn't open please please dont take it personally. Another one will be. 💘
She is a married woman with 5 adopted children. They live in a diverse community. Their children are aware of their culture. The oldest two kids the boy and girl are twins. The daughter featured here is their third adoptive child. The two little girls are also adopted and they are blood sisters. They are a beautiful family. Her husband is Italian and Filipino I believe.
I think is only 3 adopted children
@@ismli2672 No, all of them are adopted, which is crazy because the 2 little ones look exactly like her and her husband.
@@josejones246 I know right? They really do..but they are adopted too.
@@loko7914 But, here's their adoption video: czcams.com/video/W_DI4qiim2o/video.html
My only disappointment in her is that in one of her videos last year she said "China Virus". UGH. She was canceled in my mind after that incident. She seemed so progressive up to that tragic racist moment. Makes me think what other "slips ups" may occur in her house regarding racially-charged terminology and language because she said "China Virus" without batting an eye.
This woman truly loves and cares for her daughters, and it shows. I absolutely love that she is doing more than one to two ponytails.
Not me crying seeing this black child be loved in such a way 😭😭 Christy got it. ❤️
My bio mom is white and she struggled in the 70s and 80s because there weren’t a lot of resources. Our hair didn’t always look awesome but it was always clean and healthy and for that I’m grateful.
A lot of black mothers didn’t really know either back then. There weren’t a lot of products or information. No one wanted us to embrace our natural hair. We were taught that our hair was bad. Hence the reason so many of us got relaxers as children.
So true! The sheer amount of resources and info out there these days.
I was born in 2001 and adopted into an all white family. My parents tried their best, but my god are the early school pictures rough 😂
Stop worshiping this lady for doing her child’s HAIR. Y’all must have had horrible mothers the way you are kissing the woman’s behind. It’s very cringey. It’s giving insecurity needing acceptance vibes. I’m embarrassed for y’all. Get off your knees. 🤦♀️
@@candyland8326 Indeed!
This mother genuinely LOVES HER CHILDREN regardless of their ethnicity. She grew this child's hair to the length that it is today.
Exactly and she's living stress free without having the burden of working a job outside her home like most black women.
@@jaithomas9409 ty! You know some love to be negative I guess it makes them feel better about themselves. 😒
@@miloudivyne are you being for real
@@miloudivyne my mother had 3 kids before 20 and struggled raising us. She made sure our hair was done, healthy and long to boot. She just showed NO MERCY on a tender headed scalp. Most black moms don't even if they take care of their children's hair. The hair struggle is a right a passage in black homes.
@@miloudivyne What does that have to do with caring for your child's hair?
It’s really sweet how you’re supporting this mom. I think she’s really new to this but willing to learn and trying really hard to do the right thing. I think it’s great that you’re here for it and giving positive vibes for this learning journey. I love that you’re cheering her on, it’s really sweet of you.
I have no idea why, but right off the bat the video made me emotional. Then she mentions how her girls are growing up and age appropriate hairstyles. My mom literally never took the time with me, and considering my thoughts or feelings was never a thing. I do think parenting has evolved in better ways due to the internet and information being more accessible..today is nothing like the 90s! It just makes me happy to see a mom who cares so much and is willing to put in daily effort, continuously learning and growing to do right by her children. She is a great mom! 💓 thanks for showing this video!
Honestly I think black mothers should watch this as well. I think it’s a generational thing where black women are taught that dealing with their hair is suppose to hurt, be time consuming, and difficult to deal with. My mom would pull and tear into my hair to do it and when I cried I got hit. It was the norm and I think it’s the norm to a lot of black children to endure the pain to look “pretty”. Black mothers need to treat their children’s hair with care for the CHILD. Not to make the process easier for them
I never had this problem with my mother. My hair was thick and long. I had no clue so many women went through this as little girls. Sad to hear that some were pop with the comb because of the parent ripped through their hair.
Not just black children. Even black women. There is even a saying in my mother tongue on that. Not sure if i can translate it well in english. But its says that to look "pretty", one must endure the pain! And stylist quote the saying the most, when one complain about the pulling and tight styles. Duhh!
Mmmmmmmmmmm ahhhhhhhhh no..... I think this is two different generations. I feel like OP is on her 40’s plus and
I'm white and had that painful experience with my grandmother who said "It's painful to be pretty. " My mom didn't mess with my hair. It wasn't her thing.
Preach!
Christy doesn’t play about her girls hair‼️ She’s had them since babies & has grown their hair out beautifully. I’m subbed to her channel, and to watch her raise her children is amazing 🤩
Same. She's an amazing mother. Love her content
I don't even have kids and I love her channel.
Agreed! I like watching her
I love how she explains how Eliyah chose her name. They were thinking Aaliyah, but daddy REALLY wanted his baby girl to somehow have a connection to his name! TOO CUTE!!!
She is amazing! God bless her!
She didn’t make it all about her. And when she said “I give her scalp a break” I literally teared up. I’m a mom and that is what real mothers do.
8:45: KITTY!
This was wholesome and sweet. I’ll be very honest-I’m Indian, adopted as a baby to an Italian woman. My hair requires a lot less attention. I only learned a few years ago Indian hair is used in weaves. The love that mom has and care for her daughter is beautiful.
I saw the kitten too so cute!
It’s all in the mental to be honest. It has nothing to do with her skin color. She took the time to learn her child’s hair because she took the initiative to be a caring mother to begin with. Not only is she super good with her kid’s hair, her parenting can also be credited. it’s christy’s mental for me 💕✨
You meant mentality but yes I agree
Nothing but the truth. She loves those precious kids ❤️❤️❤️
Exactly
Facts! Everyone is not the same ❤
Agree! My best friend's mom preferred to go out with her friends all the time instead of teaching her daughter how to take care of her hair. So it was just me and her, two ten year olds with no idea on how to care for black hair. I sometimes get sad when I watch black hair care videos because there've been so many things I wish I had known 20 years ago.
she’s handling her hair gentler than my mom handling my straight hair 😂😭 i can’t. my hair is not even frizzy or tangled 😂😭 bruh
I once stayed the night at my biracial-with-a-white-mother friend's house. The mother insisted on brushing my (super straight, super thin) white girl hair even though I'd been doing my own hair for years & ripped the very few tangles I did have right off my head. I always felt so sorry for my friend from then on because if her mom was doing such a terrible job with my "easy" hair, she must have been torturing her poor daughter with her much curlier hair. This woman is a breath of fresh air.
Ooo I wanna add that my dad wasn't always around but he had type 3B/3C afro type hair and he was incredibly gentle with us and tried to help but my mom took care of us for the most part and thought being gentle was too time consuming and pointless /:
Her hair isn’t tangled 😆 .
@@DestinyK-2 If you're referring to the little girl in the video, I don't think farrah meant to imply her hair was tangled, only clarifying that her own mother's struggles with her straight hair wasn't due to it being frizzy or tangled.
I was just thinking that hahaha
I would definitely trust her to do my hair!! Okay Christy didn’t come to play!👀👀👀She have the right products and she is handling the hair like she is not afraid of it. She is definitely in control I love.. love..love this. Our hair is very fragile so yes you have to be gentle but she is gentle and know exactly what she is doing. Christy come do my hair hunty..I need to book a appointment! 🙌🙌🙌🥰🥰😆
I love this! Seeing the mom being gentle and putting time and moisture in the hair, separating in parts, taking snack breaks, asking the daughter what hair bands she wants, this is amazing. I feel the love and I'm so happy with the video. The mom did her research and she did amazing caring for the hair.
I came here SO FAST to defend white mothers adopting and caring for POC (as a nonwhite person who was removed from an abusive household and adopted by a loving Caucasian household), and then I found out that you already did it for me.
There can be so much hate towards mixed-race adoptive families, and it is so heartwarming to see you defending this loving family.
That was YOUR experience!! I've seen WAYYYY to many videos of Black kids adopted by whites just to be treated like shit!! Let's not forget about the white couple that adopted 7 Black kids and murdered 5 of them!! So yeah, you're not the official spokes person for adopted Black children!!
@@AnastasiaBeaverhousn I mean, I am the official spokesperson for my experience.
You’re right that my good experience doesn’t make all mixed race adoptive families utopian, but one family’s bad experience (no matter how tragic) doesn’t mean all white adoptive parents are evil.

The fact that’s she’s white but still understand you can’t shampoo everyday says a lot cause most people don’t understand that..

Now that's a Mama. Whatever race, whatever color. When you groom your children's hair with respect, love and care, they feel it. This is more than just haircare/styling. This is quality time ❤
That's mommy and me time
I wish more mom's saw it this way. They see it as a duty, "I have to brush her hair".....No, you GET to brush her hair. It's an honor, never forget, because someday she will honor you with time & care.
Absolutely. Grooming is such a special thing and so important for building bonds. I don't have kids, but it's true for dogs, cats, horses, any being you pour your love into.
Yes so well said.
Loving the love and support you gave here. It is great that you are using your voice to let people know how important it is for parents to learn how to deal with their kid's specific hair types.
Love is everything! And knowing how to take care and respect your children is real love!!
Two things that really made my heart beat with glee:
-The mention of age-appropriate hairstyles (because so many parents will not let their children grow up and keep them in "cute" things in teenage years, or suddenly say "you're not a kid any more" and put them in too serious styles)
-Asking the kid if they're okay with the style/accessories (Because, once again, not enough parents taking into account what styles and what colours their kids actually like)
Wait, I don't understand the "age-appropriate" part...?
@@ItsMzPhoenix There are hair styles that are more associated to certain age brackets (children, teenagers, young adults, etc.).
It is not bad to have them outside the usual age, but it may be strange (think of a grown man with a 2000s rat-tail or a young girl with a pixie cut.)
That isn't a thing in the UK.
I agree with what you’re saying but I feel like you should do what you want your child’s hair or what your child wants to do. There shouldn’t be ages associated with certain styles it makes no sense. If it’s for a child just don’t get it long.
@@okaygirlidc So put a wig on an infant but it's okay if it's a short bob?

But why?
@@wara1451 i mean, with all the things that r happening/have happened this past year, doesn’t seeing an educated and respectful non-poc taking care of her adoptive children of color just bring u a breath of fresh air? bc it does to me

You’re not alone! Me too! Just here for the warm fuzzies!
It is still entertaining! And ya never know. Kids sometimes sneak up on you when you least expect it. Ya may end up with a single black daddy with a little girl. Or not... You may never have kids, like you plan. It's entertaining either way. And as a white person it's honestly fun for me to learn about black hair care routines. I think their hair is gorgeous if it's taken care of the right way. 😍

Agreed!
Idk why this video is making me cry too!
@Fallen Angel Yes. Sometimes, when people connect to content, strong emotions arise. Sometimes, people can see themes in content that they can extrapolate and apply to the world at large. That, too, can elicit strong emotions within a person.
@@touchoffae same here..And I rarely cry.
I love the adopted mom..she has done all the research she has a great page
I love your reaction. It is so nice to see such positivity. It is also nice that this girl gets quality time with her mom and she gets a say.
For me, as a white woman, it's so educational to watch videos about 4a,b,c hair types, because I'm a social worker, working with families from all backgrounds and I can help my clients with their hair care and their kids hair care, too, if needed. So please please never stop educating us about how to treat different kind of hair structures, it is so important!
You are doing such a hard and important job! Thank you for caring about hair! There are many foster families out there who are so insensitive about this topic, despite their best intentions. A friend of mine is also a social worker (and a mom to adult biracial kids), and she has seen so many kids whose hair was cut short while they were in temporary foster care. When they came back to their bio parents, that was actually traumatic to mother & kids, to have a white foster family make that decision because they did not want to put in the time to learn to take care of the child's hair. So sad..
You are incredible! I have a good friend who had to go to a child homeless center for awhile as a teen, and it was social workers like you who have made her into the wonderful person that she is today. Thanks to them, she is now in her 20's, a U.S. citizen, and living in a cute little apartment with her boyfriend and helping to raise his younger sister (and now best friends with her old social worker!). If you ever feel down, remember that SO many of the children you work with have equally beautiful life stories - entirely because of you. 💗
@@mollytaylor8122 oh my god, that's such a beautiful story! and that's exactly the reason why I chose to be a social worker. Because back when I was a teenager I was in youth care, too, and the people I met and our caretakers were such good people, I just want to give something back! Everyone deserves to be taken care of and to be loved
You sound like a great and nice social worker, as an adopted child myself I haven’t had the best experience with social workers, in the space of 6-7 years of my life I’ve had three social workers 1 of which outed me to my primary school about me being adopted which lead to a lot of bullying and the other 2 I only saw once each and that was only for them to introduce themselves and I never saw them again, I’m now 17 and haven’t had a social worker for 10-ish years and I’ve actually been better off, but thank you for being one of the nice and actually helpful social workers to the families you’ve worked with🙂
Thank you so much for taking your job seriously ❤ 💕 💗 so many of us (African descendants) are stripped away from stability or incorrectly labeled due to ignorance (lack of knowledge) about what we actually need to be healthy and thrive. I appreciate your attitude and energy 😌
Christy is sensitive to her children's background & culture. For years she has been looking into solutions for the girls' hair and sharing with others who may be in a similar situation with children of different ethnicities. She said in a past video she understands that her adopted daughters' hair are their crowns. Plus, she does involve them in their style choices, too. As far as taking her time with the hair, she does it for more than 1 child. I admire her and have followed her for a while because she and her husband are great examples for me on adopting.. Side note: yep, tangle teasers are a blessing.
Absolutely!!! I love Christy! She also allows them to have relationships with some of their biological families.
@@mainegabrielleYes, such an ideal situation for the children to attempt to have those connections, too, (provided the biological relationships are healthy and positive under the circumstances.)
Oh, my mother is black, but her hair is naturally straight, my father is white (latino) and his hair is super curly, I was born with 2B/3A curls, being a 00's kid, I never found products for me, but somehow my mother made my curls finger by finger, even though she never had a hair like that, when she went back to work, my father was responsible for getting me ready for school, I spent three years wearing a ponytail! He always tried hard to make it beautiful, I always wanted to wear braids when I was younger, so I would make his job easier, only after I was old I understood why I couldn't, parents like mine and many others deserve a lot of recognition, she never masked her daughter, never changed her, always evolving alongside her ❤️
Are you saying she said that her hair it's her crown? 😭❤️ Oh my god! That's so sweet and important!!!!
Love her. Gave me some amazing tips for my daughters hair
Honestly, these kinds of videos are informative, not just for people with black/biracial kids, but also for people with curly haired kids in general. My mom is white and has curly hair, and she has always hated her hair because she was never taught how to properly take care of it and bring out the best in it. Her mom just chopped it short when she was a kid and didn't do much else to it. I've told her recently she should go to a black stylist because they would be able to help her take care of it better than the white stylists she's been going to all her life.
I am a 3a curl type and hated my curls for years! It was not until I started using products for my hair type that my life changed. It was watching channels like your that taught this pasty white girl what was up for my curl type. All us curly gals owe a debt of gratitude for the women who taught us how to finally love our hair too.
So many white adoptive moms of black or brown babies get so much hate, instead of love and support, on every platform I see. Coming from a heavily mixed family I have so much love for your support of this loving mother. I too love that she gives her choices! My custodian didn't even do that.
💞 Thank you for the Love and Support 💞
White moms have mixed babies not black babies
@@dianasohn2515 The hate is often towards black babies adopted by white moms, so those kids are not necessarily mixed.
@@dianasohn2515 Are you saying that Moms who adopt are not moms?
@@dianasohn2515 also, it’s not as simple as being mixed. Especially in a predominantly white area, they’re not gonna stop calling you the n-word and sending microaggressions your way l the sudden because you have a white parent. You will be perceived as black depending on your phenotype. Some mixed kids come out looking white. Some mixed kids come out looking black. It is not that simple.
@@dianasohn2515 that’s implying mixed babies aren’t black.
Props to this mom for educating herself and not being intimidated on her daughters natural hair instead of relaxing or cutting off her hair because it’s “easier”. Her daughters hair looks super healthy too so she’s clearly been properly doing their hair for a while.
yea she does a really good job!! it looks so heathy!💕
Right! That child has BEAUTIFUL hair❤️
I agree with u, my cousin is half black and white and her white mom is very ignorant when it comes with her hair, when me and my sis do cornrows and do any type of black girl hairstyles her ma always takes it off and don’t know how to properly do her hair and keeps on straighten it but when someone who is actually black tries to teach her she refused.
Agree!! My mom cut my hair short because it was easier!
I somehow ended up watching the 90 day fiance lockdown special months ago, and a mom had her biracial daughters hair chopped off like a boys because the salons were closed... I felt so sad for that kid.
I love the recognition your giving her i teared up a bit watching it meant a lot although I am a black woman I truly believe we all can learn from one another and it have such a positive impact on our kids. The world teaches us to be against one another and this video displays so much recognition and unity that we need in this world❣️❣️😘
I appreciate how much you appreciated her efforts, knowledge, and her style of parenting. Blessings. 🙏🏼
I love the fact she also compliments her daughter's hair. It seems like such a small thing, but it is giving that little girl confidence, especially in a society where white hair is considered the "standard of beauty"
yup my baby loves her curls but loves moms very thin straight hair, because we intentionally teach her to look for beauty everywhere and to celebrate each one in different ways and for their differences too.
There's no such thing as "white hair". Less that 5% of Europeans have straight hair and even if it's straight, it's usually 1b/c. We have mostly 2b-3b hair, but many of us, especially on south and east, have 3c-4a.
Its so important to instill confidence in your children
Why do you mean by white hair?
What is white hair?
Chile christy even twirling the ends. Come on girl.
I know 😍😍😍😍💜
I peeped that also!
Christy is a good mom. I watch her all the time. I love her channel.
She grew all her girls hair. She is an amazing mom to her kids
She puts so much love into her children's crown 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
I’m getting ready to be a foster mom and I want to make any child that comes into my care feel good about the way they look! This video is first of all the most positive reaction video I have ever seen and second helping me figuring out how to prepare for caring for a hair texture that’s different from mine. THANK YOU!!
Women being kind and respectful towards each other. 💕😭 I’m here for it! This was beautiful, thank you!
Her daughter's hair is long and healthy so clearly she doing it right lol
Thats before she adopted her "blindo"
Yesssss thank you🙌
@@antique7365 why are you upset...like why did you comment this
@@laurelkendun cause I believe I can,?
@@antique7365 ok it was just pretty stupid 💀 clearly that woman is taking good care of her babies hair and u had to shit on her for no reason. why not go somewhere else w that kind of negativity.
when you talk about white women marrying black men, I think we forget that fathers should also do the effort of taking care of hair.
That’s true but, I luv the fact she is learning the culture and how to care for the little girls hair.
This usually isn’t father’s work: black or white. Barbershops and hair cuts are not for girls. But I get your point.
@@PersonallyNicole what in the gender roles
@@PersonallyNicole I agree with you. It's not a man's job. If he does it, well and good. If he doesn't still well and good
@@v1ped men generally get more haircuts than women. So makes sense
Ok Mom!! Ok Christy!!! Do that hair!!! This makes me so happy she's taking care of her kid the right way to boot!
she is breaking it down well! There needs to be more videos on stuff like this for any and all white parents of any circumstance. Loves it, and you girl. 🖤 subbed.
