Some of us were raised on messages that sounded innocent but cut deep:

• “Your hair’s too nappy to wear out.”
• “You’d be so pretty if you straightened it.”
• “Good hair is easier to manage.”

In this episode of The Hair Debate, host Morale Ocain dives deep into generational hair trauma — the unspoken shame, the subtle conditioning, and the emotional weight that’s been passed down like a family recipe.

We explore how childhood comments, cultural expectations, and family dynamics can shape our self-worth, our scalp health, and even the way we raise our kids today. This one’s personal, powerful, and packed with healing.

✨ What You’ll Learn:

• What generational hair trauma really sounds like — and why so many of us carry it.
• How internalized messages affect your scalp, hair routine, and confidenceWhat it looks like to rewrite your hair story (and why it starts with unlearning)
• How healing your scalp is just as emotional as it is physical

🔥 Shareable Moment:“You get to choose again. You get to write a new narrative.
