not all mixed people have curly hair. My son has straight slightly wavy hair. His dad is half black.

I know bi racial children with all types of hair some silky straight some soft curls some tight curls. My son had straight hair and I always put lotion on his head/hair until about 9 months and his hair started growing so fast and once it got longer it got curlier. He has curls but the texture of his hair is very different than his cousin's. My son's hair was like yours and once it got longer it got curlier if I cut it short it looks straight until it grows out, but now literally it grows so fast I am trimming his hair up every couple of weeks. I use the just 4 me hair milk shampoo, conditioner, and cream

My little girl's 7 months. Her hair kind of sticks up in the middle of her head with a little loose curl to it, but for the most part, her hair's straight. Almost ALL mixed (black/white) children that I see have curly hair. My neice and nephews are all also mixed, and my neice's hair curled around 6 weeks, my 1 nephew's hair curled like at 3 or 4 months, and my other nephew's hair curled when he was almost 1. I really can't wait for my daughter's hair to curl. It's just taking it's good old time. I know that it most likely will curl, it's just a matter of time. It gets pretty curly when it's wet, but the moment it dry's, it's straight again. I think that his hair will eventually be curly, but it's hard to tell when. I thought that my daughter's hair would have curled by now. (I also thought that she would have a lot more hair when she was born. My neice and nephew's had A LOT of hair when they were born. She did have full head of hair, but it was very thin in spots, and really not that much) It's just a waiting game.
