EDITOR'S NOTES
"It's time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is a strength" - Maya Angelou.
When I was growing up, I had so many insecurities about myself. I hated my kinky hair, so I kept of trying to straighten it or use fake hair to make it look like other girl's straight hair. I would use a weave or have my hair relaxed to cover my naturally kinky hair.
My skin was another source of my insecurity. I didn't feel beautiful because I had darker skin than my mother and sister. I felt different and sad to say, ugly. It didn't help matters that the dolls that have had blonde hair, blue eyes, white skin and trim figure.
As a parent, I've always wanted my child to grow up happy, healthy and confident in her skin. I hated to have her grow up with the same issues that I had when I was growing up. I didn't want her to think that she had to look a sure way to be considered beautiful; everyone is unique and beautiful https://naturalnubiandolls.com/collections/afrikawakeup I wanted her to see that her hair and her skin colour was just as beautiful and should be celebrated just like any other child's. So one day, I set out to the toy shop to find a doll that didn't fit that description.
I was so appalled by how limited the selection was when it comes to darker shaded dolls. What's even more surprising is that the small collection of dark-coloured toys didn't have a look that I was seeking. The skin colour looked unnatural like someone spray-painted the doll brown. The hair fibres felt like the manufacturers just used a crimper to make it curly. Suffice to say I didn't buy any doll.
My need for a better, more natural-looking doll with a naturally darker skin colour gave me the idea to create Natural Nubian Dolls. I have created a range of dolls named; including Cleopatra and Malia so far, and they are gorgeous. Malia's hair is short, kinky and as all over the place as mine while Cleopatra's is a lot longer but just as curly. They both have beautiful chocolate brown skin that matches most African skin tone. I could not have been happier the first time that I saw them. It was like the insecure kid in me suddenly realised that I was beautiful and that all those hours and money I spent trying to straighten my hair was time and effort wasted.
I wanted to make more Natural Nubian Dolls not just for my baby girl but also for other parents with African descent to give to their little kid.
