Ms Barbie has locs!

Barbie has locs
According to a story in Huffington Post today about 40 African-American Barbie dolls are being transformed into curly-top beauties this holiday season.

To date it is rare to find a black doll with textured hair. So some members of an African-American natural hair group in Columbus, GA., have decided to give Barbie a DIY natural hair makeover.

The dolls are going to be Christmas gifts for girls living at the Booker T. Washington public housing complex in Columbus.
