In the 11th episode of My Wife and Kids season 1, titled "Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow," Michael Kyle (Damon Wayans) decides to shave his head to prove a point to his son Junior (George O. Gore II), who is rejecting his African-American heritage by straightening his hair.

As Michael and Junior engage in a heated argument about the importance of embracing their cultural identity, Michael challenges Junior to shave his head as well in a show of solidarity. However, Junior is reluctant to do so, fearing ridicule from his peers at school.

Meanwhile, Claire (Jazz Raycole), the couple's teenage daughter, struggles with her own hair issues as she tries to style her naturally curly hair for a school dance. She turns to her mother, Jay (Tisha Campbell-Martin), for help, but Jay's attempts to straighten her hair with a relaxer go awry, leaving Claire with an awkward-looking hairdo.
