[quote=Anonymous]I do like short hair, but if tangles are the problem, short hair does not quite address it. Depending on your daughter's hair type, the option to brush every day might not be realistic. If your daughter has really curly hair, brushing every day will just make it frizzy, tangled and difficult. Either way, you can spray some water on her hair, rub some conditioner on your hands and massage through hair, so that detangling is still done through wet-ish hair. Dry-detangling is bad for your daughter's hair, as it frizzes it and it breaks hair. I also second the idea of braids. Now when you detangle, you can't tug at the hair. Instead, separate a strand, grab the upper part with your fingers and run the brush on the lower part of the hair. That way, if you do have to tug a bit, you will pull against your fingers, and not against her scalp. That, along with braids, is why moderately long hair is actually easier to manage.[/quote]
