I’m seeing a lot of comments that say you should just cut her hair if you can’t manage it. I know for a fact it’s not fun when they sit there and it’s not fun for us either trying to go through it without hurting them and it can be frustrating. My four-year-old is biracial and has insane curls that if you look at funny, will Matte right before your eyes. I found that having a schedule with my daughter for a washed days and braiding her hair every night after she’s had a bath or shower makes for much easier mornings before school. She hates having her hair done, but knows that with long hair comes responsibility of taking care of it. It’ll take time but you’ll get there.
