He lets me do his hair daily and asks me to play with it (run my hands through it) at night lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034871 Thu, 22 Jan 2015 02:48:41 +0000 SleepyMonkey 2034871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Almost never. she has to be sitting in her high chair and strapped in and distracted for me to do a quick braid. Usually she says "no mommy don't touch my hair." And pulls away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034832 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 23:58:07 +0000 NurseMommy 2034832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I'm "allowed" as long as I chase her around the house doing her hair while she runs. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034792 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 22:58:02 +0000 dolphin 2034792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's 2 and she lets me put her hair in pigtails. She just started letting me though. Before she would always yank them out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034452 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 18:38:30 +0000 StbHisMrs 2034452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's a big fat NO!! She runs, hides, buried her head into couches and pillows. Girl has long hair, and hates me touching it. Doesn't help that I don't know how to French braid, she let's Grandma and her babysitter though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034422 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 17:57:50 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2034422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She does, but we've been doing it since she was five months old. IPad time helps on days when she's less willing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034417 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 17:55:14 +0000 NovBaby1112 2034417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No!! It's si frustrating bc it's always in her eyes and she's constantly looking like a crazy kid, but she wont let me touch her hair </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034385 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 17:28:18 +0000 SLR 2034385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only with Frozen and some Corn Chex to snack on. And even then, she tries to push me away sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034379 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 17:18:53 +0000 MamaG 2034379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, she's 3.5 and her hair is nearing her little bottom. It has to be up as she doesn't like it in her face and gets it full of food. It's easiest if I let her watch tv as I do it. Lately, she just wants pigtails, but I was doing braids for awhile. If only I could get a relatively even or straight line down her head when I do pigtails. Or get them evenly positioned on her head! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034375 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 17:15:57 +0000 yoursilverlining 2034375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: Cool, I will have to look up a tutorial on YouTube. LO has been asking me for Elsa and Anna hair; so I tried to replicate Elsa's correnation day hair. Came out ok for first try! </p> <p>And here's some double french braids daycare did. I don't have these skills yet lol</p> <p>[attach=1754/15/nijsim.600x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=1754/15/nijsin.600x600.image.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034362 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:58:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2034362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: @808love: @Mamaof2: thanks. It's just an inside out French braid that I did from one ear overto the other side. I wanted to practice because it's how Ana and Elsa have their hair </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034359 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:56:56 +0000 Summerbebe 2034359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love all the braids! My 2.5 yo talks in her sleep and I literally heard her say "don't want pigtails". Ha. She lets her DCP do really cute stuff though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034355 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:51:54 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2034355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. She lets me french braid it, brush it, put pony tails in it, etc. She doesn't feel dressed for the day unless her hair is done and out of her eyes. But I've been putting it in pony tails since she was 15 months. </p> [attach=1616/15/nijrhd.600x600.IMG_20141221_143915.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034317 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:28:00 +0000 regberadaisy 2034317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ditto. I resorted to bribing today and it's the first time in probably a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034306 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:19:31 +0000 katsupgirl 2034306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually. I ask what she wants to watch while I do her hair. It's only a struggle if I'm in a rush to leave and doing it last minute. My mom braids her hair while she's asleep sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034298 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:12:47 +0000 Radish 2034298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. She is 2 and I have to bribe her to get her to let me put anything in her hair. She even gets annoyed and am sitting next to her playing with it too much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034287 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:07:14 +0000 808love 2034287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: Oooh pretty. She has nice thick hair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034280 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:02:42 +0000 Mamaof2 2034280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: love it!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034279 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 16:02:30 +0000 Mamaof2 2034279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Will she let the DCP teacher do it? My DD let her teacher do her hair way before me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034266 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:57:50 +0000 merriment 2034266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! She runs away and declares that she is both "fine and busy." She's pretty much a mess. It's just not a fight I'm interested in picking now. But on the rare occasion that I do get pigtails, it makes me so happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034263 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:54:53 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2034263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She didn't used to let me touch it, but since her hair's getting longer, brushing it and putting it in pig tails or a ponytail has been part of her morning routine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034257 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:53:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 2034257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A quick pony or piggy tail at 2 1/2 is about all I can do. No braids or anything fancy, but she does let me "do" it to an extend. Never stays in but I try! ha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034253 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:52:09 +0000 Ginabean3 2034253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! 23 month old and I pop her on the bathroom sink and give her a box of hair bows/clips/whatever to play with and I work FAST! We have done pigtails, pony tails, and sometimes I get crazy and try to do something weird...like a faux-hawk with multiple ponies going down the middle of her head. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034241 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:49:17 +0000 yoursilverlining 2034241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, thankfully as girlfriend has long hair!! She even requests I do her hair in certain styles each day. I have to step up my hair game though, as I've never really done anything much with my own hair. @T.H.O.U.: beautiful - how did you do it? :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034234 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:45:57 +0000 loveisstrange 2034234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. Ponytails, pigtails, braids, bows. She'll be 3 in April. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034232 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:45:09 +0000 Smurfette 2034232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually! Depends on the day</p> <p>the bigger question is how long will she keep it in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034229 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:43:49 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2034229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here was our latest! </p> [attach=1506/15/nijo91.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034217 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:41:08 +0000 Mamaof2 2034217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes but not until around age 3. Now she likes to "do" my hair after I do hers - </p> <p>DD: Mommy, do you want an Anna braid or an Elsa?</p> <p> :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034214 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:40:35 +0000 mrs. wagon 2034214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same answer with everything with LMW: if she wants to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-daughter-let-you-do-her-hair-1#post-2034210 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 15:39:38 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2034210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes but bows get pulled out immediately. She hates her hair in her face and I can get about 1.5 minutes of stillness out of her while I fix it. </p>
