[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it...that when I google curly hair, or anything for curly hair...it is all AA specific?

I can not seem to find anything to help my white (not bi-racial) poor DD with extremely curly hair.  I can not be the only one out there with a white child with curly hair.

Am I?[/quote]
Shame on you OP.  Why do you use the term "poor DD"? That says something about you that you will probably make her feel ashamed about her curly hair. [/quote]

Extremely dry curly hair is a PITA. Poor child for having to deal with it for the rest of her life. There's nothing bad about acknowledging that.[/quote]

I know how your little girl feels. I spent years hating my hair because I thought that I could only ever where it in a bushy, frizzy ponytail. Try using shampoos and conditioners made for curly hair. She doesn't have to wah it everyday but she should wet it enough to condition it and comb it with a wide tooth comb. She can wear it long if she wants to, just style it with some curling moouse (if you're on a budget suave curl defining mouse works great) I also use a serum from redkin called ringlets. let the hair air dry or if you're in a rush use a finger defuser with the hair drier on low heat. If you soak her hair in white vinegar every week or so it softens the hair and makes it shiny while also detangling. You should also make sure that who ever cuts your daughters hair knows how to cut curly hair. I've had many bad hair cuts because the person cutting it didn't know what to do with curly hair. Ask around and if you have friends with curly hair ask where they get their hair done. In the summer I do my hair in all different kinds of braids so the humidity doesn't affect it as much. If she wants to straighten it at some point you'll want to invest in a good straightener. I really like the John Frieda straightener (about $50 at wal-mart). once you learn how to take care of it curly hair (long or short) is really low maintenance. [/quote]
