Basic African American Hair Care

Confused about how to care for your African American child's hair? You are not alone! Come learn the history of its importance and basics from the expert, Rhoda Jordan.


One of the aspects that can be a challenge for foster and adoptive parents is knowing how to care for their children's skin and hair if it's different than their own.


Appearance matters to a child's self-image and self-esteem. Poor appearance makes your child a target for teasing and bullying. Not only does appearance matter, but by learning some of the shared techniques, you will also be honoring your foster or adopted child's culture. This course will go over history, basic care, products, and tips. It's a great starting point or refresher class.
