Segons Charlene, durant la infantesa i l'adolescència,va desestimar les seues "arrels" i el seu cabell natural va quedar emmascarat a través de diverses tècniques, com ara les trenes o "l'allisat com la solució al problema," la consegüent fragilitat i la dependència de caríssims tractaments químics.
According to Charlene, her "roots" were dismissed from infancy through adulthood, and her natural hair was masked in a number of ways, such as braiding, "straightening as salvation for problem," the consequent brittleness, and dependence on expensive, chemical treatments.
