So the title is true, but not what this post is about... sorry. Bait and switch, I know.
The question of the day is how do I get my daughter to keep things in her hair? She's looking like a little ragamuffin. Have I used that term in the last 25 years? Doubt it. I don't really want to have to go get her a haircut, but she's got an interesting 'do, that's for sure. It's really long in the back (when it gets wet), but curls up to just below her ears when it's dry. On top, there's all sorts of a party going on, but it's all kinda still that baby curl stuff. But of course, she won't let me put anything in her hair for any amount of time at all... no little silicone bands, no clips, nothing.
And I know this is partially my fault: she didn't have very much hair for the longest time, so I didn't bother. I'm not really a frilly person (shocking, that, I know), and I'm not gong to buy some hairband with a GIANT FLOWER (or the like) on it like some people do. There was one girl who came into the store one day with what looked like a small ballerina on her head, it had sooooo much tulle on it.
I hope I'm not raising a daughter who ends up having short hair because I can't get my act together enough to figure out how to do someone else's hair (thanks, Mother). Maybe that's why I was blessed with 2 boys and a girl instead of 2 or 3 girls.
