Archived Dear Mixed Girl Letter – “Embrace It All”
|
Did you know that there is a crown on your head?! That’s right, you’re royalty! The beautiful hair on your head is your crown that the world gets to behold. Recall your natural roots and be true to yourself. Your hair can be worn in whatever style brings you joy, but remember that no one changes the root of who you are. Wear your crown proudly – if you let it slip, lift your head to the sky and love yourself once more. Sincerely, Dr. KayLa N. Allen-Young, Another Mixed Girl and the Creator of Dear Mixed Girl® Happy National Crown Day!
