[quote=Anonymous]I have very curly hair that is also fine and leave-in products are no good for me. I also never blow it out and have an extremely easy hair routine. That said, I often leave the house with wet hair, which many view as unacceptable. But if OP's DD is wetting her hair all day, then properly air drying shouldn't be an issue.

OP, have her start with this:

1. STOP BRUSHING. Comb with a wide-toothed comb only when wet.

2. Buy her a gentle shampoo and conditioner with no silicone. Try Tresemme. It should say 0% silicone on the label. IF she has coarse or very thick hair, try a leave-in conditioner.

3. To start, try a gel or styling cream for curly hair. Miss Jessie's (you can get it at the drugstore) is a nice line. For wavy hair, try the Multicultural Curl cream or Jelly Soft curl gel. If she needs even more frizz control/hold, try the Curly Meringue.

4. Ok, the process: Wash and conditioner hair as usual. GENTLY squeeze out excess water--do not rub. Wide-tooth comb as needed. Apply gel or cream. Then let air dry. Don't touch it! Don't comb or brush or play with it. The more you touch it, the more likely it will frizz.

5. If she wants to blow dry before bed, either do a full blow out with round brush OR use a diffuser, no brushing or combing,  touching very little. No matter how you dry it, don't brush or comb once it's dry. In the morning, if it's frizzed up a bit overnight, she can dampen and apply more gel or cream. But the wetter your hair is when you apply product, the better the outcome.

6. She likely doesn't need to shampoo as often as you think. Try skipping the shampoo every other time she showers and instead just use conditioner like a shampoo-- massage the scalp, work through her hair, then rinse. This can also help reduce frizz.

If her hair is long, cut a few inches off to get rid of damaged ends. Consider long layers. Take her for a good cut.

Good luck! I love my curls. [/quote]
