Little black girls are often taught, when given dolls to play with, for the most part, that straight hair is most appealing. This is implied through one of the most famous dolls, whose name is Barbie. It is wonderful that there is a Black Barbie, but without addressing her hair texture, there is still a message that natural is not cool enough as far as Barbie is concerned. So, taking the initiative to change that is the approach that some Natural Divas took on per the link below. In the spirit of the holidays, N.I.C.E. sends praise to these ladies for recognizing, in their gift giving for the Holidays, that Natural Is Coole Enough, even for Barbie!
