Healthy Roots Dolls

Please SUPPORT a up and coming toy company.

DOLLS! They come in different skin tones, hair textures and facial features to represent the beauty of the African Diaspora.

These ladies dolls were created (quoted)
"Our dolls combat internalized racism and colorism by getting to the root of the problem: diversity and knowledge! Our research has shown that mothers resort to relaxing their daughters' hair due to time constraints, lack of knowledge about natural haircare, and the desire to appeal to mainstream beauty standards. Through our line of dolls our mission is to educate children and mothers about the joy and beauty of natural hair."

In order to launch the dolls they need your support! Healthy Roots' goals are to increase representation among young girls of color while combatting internalized racism and colorism. We want to empower Black girls to achieve their dreams. Click on this Healthy Roots to be directed to their website for further information.
