While Henry says he was not surprised by her tips because she usually knows exactly what she wants, he found it so endearing that she was proud of his work. \"It was the absolute best feeling to see her shining bright on her birthday,\" he said.

Since posting, Henry's Instagram video has been viewed more than 176,000 times and has been met with an outpouring of admirable comments.

\"I had no idea millions of people would love this video,\" Henry said. \"It's special to highlight little black girls in this way. I hope my daughter brought smiles to people, but also showed other little girls what it means to be beautiful and bold.
