Hair wash day is such a powerful and sacred ritual amongst Black households and it's beautiful to see it be framed as a spa day versus a painful chore. Thank you so much for sharing this read!!
We all have our own sacred memories of wash day with our moms. A lot of bonding was had even though we cried and complained. I miss those days. Happy Mother's Day to all.
This brings back so many memories. I loved getting my hair done most of the time. One of my friends never really had this experience, so she recently flat ironed my hair. Sacred moments.
my mama wrestled for so long w how to take care of my hair because it truly was bafflingly difficult to manage. she figured it out eventually, and wash days became less painful and more joyful for the both of us.

Hair day can be so special. We have developed a ritual: favorite snacks and watchlist saved.
The grease on brown hands as they plait quickly just is reminder of the tradition of hair day passed down to generations.
Ritual. Love that word. Thank you for reading and happy Mother's Day 💐
