At least that's what I'm going to tell myself for now! I'm also kind of hoping LO2 will have the same hair--I'm surprised how attached to it I've become.</p> <p>@PinkElephant: I like the idea of side swept bangs, I think I'll try that. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-curly-hair-style#post-2376312 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 22:59:37 +0000 Foodnerd81 2376312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: haha I just realized that's why my daughters hair seems so long! DH and I keep talking about it- I just put her first ponytail in this week and she is 2 years 4 months! That's totally what it is not does still curl on the ends but not all the way up to her scalp. I really hope our second has the same hair, I love it so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-curly-hair-style#post-2376272 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 22:05:03 +0000 PinkElephant 2376272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: this. My girls have ringlets in the summer, but in the dry winter months only the ends are curly/wavy. Everyone is commenting the past week or so on how LONG their hair is all of a sudden.</p> <p>I do a side swept bang on my 3.5 year old DD, and it works (doesn't curl) - I stumbled on a stylist who is great with kids and curls by pure luck, and we've kept him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-curly-hair-style#post-2376229 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 21:14:55 +0000 Foodnerd81 2376229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hitchhiker: could it be getting less curly because it's cooler and less humid? My daughter has very fine curly hair but it's way more curly in the summer and humidity. </p> <p>No other advice, although I would think someplace that specializes in kids cuts would be better at keeping her still. If she won't let you do barrettes it will probably be hard to cut? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-curly-hair-style#post-2376224 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 21:10:26 +0000 MrsSRS 2376224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you love your salon definitely try taking your LO there! Bo other ideas here though. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-curly-hair-style#post-2376215 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 21:02:14 +0000 hitchhiker 2376215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Until recently, my toddler's hair held curl well all over. But now, the curl seems to be falling out more. I don't know if it's because her hair is getting longer (she's 2.75 and has never had a cut) or because it's straightening out (sob!). She won't let me put barrettes or ponytails in it anymore and she looks dishevelled almost all the time. I think it's time to accept that she needs her first haircut. I'm a little terrified of the curl disappearing, but I think I'm at the point that I can handle that. </p> <p>A couple of questions for parents of curly kids:<br /> -do you take LO to a salon that specializes in curly hair? I have wavy hair, and go to a curly salon--is it crazy to take her there?<br /> -have you ever tried bangs with moderately curly hair? Now that I can't keep barrettes in, her hair is always in her face.<br /> -any other advice? </p>
