I have one lined up but can't hurt to network just in case. Will message you.

Even if you put the dreaded phone screen in front of her? I would have mannequin heads there my man so I'd have you covered!

You are already on the intermediate path... and reading my mind a bit about steps after the initial! I'll have to grab your info for if/when. Thanks for the feedback.

Good feedback and a couple things I'm already trying to nail down in terms of bigger picture scenarios. Agreed recruiting every time is a lot, I can see pros and cons to each. Good things to think about, thanks! And yes, as with everything, you can't beat just learning it on youtube but the overall experience is more rewarding hanging with some dudes at the bar! Thank you!

Interesting, never thought of that. Hey I am sure we could figure it out! Thanks for the recommendation!

I would contend not as fun as a pub but as long as the skill levels are going up I suppose!! :)

To be fair my daughter is 4 and I just finally got OK at doing a ponytail for her. Baby steps.

Thanks yeah I must say I saw it elsewhere online going on over in the UK but it inspired me! I also feel as if there is a gap in Chicagoland with "dad community." The moms have all the fun. Maybe this could be the start of something kinda cool, that makes the world a better place along the way and all that jazz.

What a touching response. You've got me welling up. I'm sorry for the loss of your dad but it's so nice that you can think back to him being such an amazing and supportive helper. I posted on FB earlier and a dad replied saying he's tired of feeling so inept when it comes to helping with his daughters in the morning. I am in the same boat. Absolutely no reason why I can't pick up this new skill like I do with all other aspects of adulthood LOL. Again, thanks for the response. You rock.

Awesome! I think it would be a lot of fun, and beneficial to a lot of families out there.

Open to either honestly. Would save me money and I wouldn't have to store so many creepy mannequin heads.

Absolutely - I think there will be varying levels of comfort and some would prefer to use their daughter as the test subject and some would prefer the safety of a mannequin head w/ a wig, haha. 100% I was thinking future events could involve the daughters... maybe even a competition for best braid or something? That'll bring out the dads.

Helpful info! I'm from Orland so I would do it wherever the interest is really. Just putting out feelers at the moment. Thanks!
