So beautiful and spiritually relevant for all of our beautiful brown and black girls seeking their true selves. Thank you for making this important film

[@krokodyl1927]

The young Dominican lady is just as beautiful with or without hair. IMO, more beautiful with the hair cut short. However, the love between mother and daughter expressed here is the most beautiful. 🤗❤️🤗

Gorgeous story. So loving and really gets to the root , the nappy root for every Black and brown girl and I have them all in my family. It’s bigger than hair and then for women it really comes down to this: reclaiming our bodies. Loving our natural selves and loving who loves us with the tenderness we need. Who feels it knows it!

Why did she have all her hair shaved off? I thought the object was to embrace their hair?
