KNOWLEDGE WE CAN SHARE
African American hair is
typically curly and coarse.
African American Skin has a
tendency to be very dry and
quite sensitive to most
skincare products. Other
medical-conditions that
affect the ethnic hair and
skin are unintentionally
overlooked by
foster and adoptive parents
who are otherwise very
committed to helping their
child grow in healthy ways.
Without the right
information and training on
the proper care of ethnic
skin and hair, quite often
the child's hair and/or skin
will become severely
damaged, which can result in
actual physical injuries,
and most certainly leads to
issues of confidence and
self-esteem for the children
suffering from these kinds
of unintentional mistakes.
THE VALUE
IN SHARING OUR KNOWLEDGE
Self-esteem in
children as to how it
relates to ethnic cultural
awareness, is a vital key in
family, school and community
to be able to thrive
successfully. B Beautiful
Children's Foundation for
Ethnic Hair and Skin's
belief is that teaching,
training and sharing
professional information
about ethnic hair and skin
care will assist foster and
adoptive parents, and their
children develop healthy
life-long habits.

Founder,
Barbette R. Woodall Notes
 For as long as I
can remember, I have been
fascinated with hair.
Because my hair wasn't easy
to manage I began
styling my own hair at an
early age. I taught myself
how to braid, style, and do
the daily upkeep of my hair.
In the process, I learned
which hair-care products were
effective for ethnic hair;
and thus began my journey to
help others like me with the
same ethnic hair challenges.
I learned how to properly
implement products and tools
to enhance the look and
health of my ethnic hair and
skin. These are the
developed skills I will
teach you
as some of the
proper steps in keeping your
ethnic child's hair healthy
and manageable and it will
be my great pleasure to do
so!
B Beautiful Children's
Foundation
for Ethnic Hair
and Skin is a 501(c)3
non-profit organization.
