‘Blair’s Hair’ is a 56 page children’s picture book. Inspired by experiences I’ve had with hair but is most relevant to my partner’s relationship to hair. I was influenced by children’s books on diversity and gender expression for boys. But there was a gap in this tone for girls. What about girls who also express themselves differently? It is important to normalise gender non-conformity for young girls too, tomboyish attributes shouldn’t be regarded as something to supress or ‘grow out of’! However, I hope that this character’s motives and identity can be left up to interpretation for each reader. I want an audience which includes trans and non-binary people who can find comfort in this character.
