Three years later

It is no secret that I have STRUGGLED big time with Hannah's hair. I have gone through phases where I love to do it but most the time it stresses me out! It sounds silly I know, how could a little girls hair be difficult? Miss Hannah has so much hair that it does not fit under her bike or horse back riding helmet when it is down. After she has gone swimming, nearly everyday in the summer, it is impossible to comb through even after applying a good conditioner. I have tried to stay in the routine of putting it up in a cute way every Sunday night after a good wash, by Wednesday the cute hair style I spent an hour is gone.

I am not a frilly kind of girl. I have straight hair that requires very little time to do, never learned how to french braid, and my styling products consist of a can of hair spray. I have been maintaining for the past three years when it comes to Hannah's hair. I look at pictures online, get product recommendations from my African American friends, and look at the ethnic hair section every time I walk into Target. Finally last week I found the best blog EVER!!! It is called Happy Girl Hair www.happygirlhair.com/
While my wonderful husband made dinner I sat Hannah down and began to do loose corn rows to prevent hair breakage. I am proud to report after a week filled with horseback riding, swimming, and playing outside it still looks cute!!!!
