Coming from a large family, populated by mostly women, hair is discussed on a daily basis. My earliest member is being 4 or 5 walking to my grandmother’s house to get my hair pressed. I can still full the excitement and fear in my chest. Excited because getting my hair pressed meant something important was happening, and fear because the plan was to put something that had sat on top of a hot burner in my head. And getting burner was a reality, because I could never keep still. That was one reason that my hair pressing sessions got passed on to my grandmother, she was the best at it and had the most patience with me.
