How to Detangle My Little Girls Hair - End Tears Now

I got so tired of my daughters crying no matter how gentle I was.  It seemed they cried to keep me in check making certain I wouldn't run to quickly through a tangle. Bottom line is they were scared and that was the problem I knew I must address carefully and with a gentle hand. 

Don't get me wrong curly thick hair is hard to manage and it gets really tangled.  All the more reason it needs brushed and combed on a regular basis.

If you let it go those tangles quickly turn into a matted mess that is impossible to remove without tears or damaging the hair.  

There is no getting around it the tangles must be removed by brushing or combing. Using a detangler spray makes tangles melt away and combing easy.

Giving your daughter a doll, or stuffed animal with long hair and a brush for them to detangle works as a great deterrent for arguments and tears.  Explain to your daughter how she will fix her baby or stuffies hair while you fix hers.  Let her know she will be showing you the best way to do it and you will follow her lead taking her instructions.

I learned very quickly the tangle mist, sprays, combs and brushes work. 

How it Works

1. Start at the ends of the hair by sweeping the hair around to the back with your hands.
2. If hair is thick use a wide toothed comb or detangling brush.
3. Mist the ends of the hair, begin combing from the absolute ends working your way up gradually.
4. Spray more detangler on as you work your way up.  
5. Take your time and continue this process until you've made your way through the entire head of hair.

Enjoy a beautiful head of hair as you build your child's confidence.

As she realizes the power in this task you may encourage her to fix babies hair, by braiding and or other styles.  

This ritual will grow and evolve as you both build confidence.  Combing your daughters hair will become a enjoyable bonding time you share together.

Much Love and Happiness, Katie
