My little girl hair is long enough to where I can’t just leave it out because she looks a mess. So I want to start doing her hair in more styles. Shes only 5 months. I’m black and have 4c hair so I’m clueless as to what hairstyle to do for her. I think she has 1A ? I’m not sure. A pic for reference, and if yk what type of hair she has can u tell me please. Also a pic in comments on how messy it looks when out. TIA.

Oh my goodness! My daughter I think has…3A hair type?

I would suggest using the little hair bands that’s are like a wool material as they create less tension on the hair as elastics cause breakage when used a lot and can be awkward to remove xx

I looked it up and it says loose curls. I think she has loose curls when it’s wet but other than that it’s straight

it’s not elastic rubber bands, it’s more plastic , I tried the wool and she just immediately pulls it out. The daycare recommended these and they last a lot longer. I do try to do it as loose as possible as to not cause tension and I immediately remove them when we get home so her hair can breathe

Lawd her hair to straight for that 😭 idk how she doesn’t have any texture to it. It’s like my genes didn’t fight at all cause she got everything from her dad

okay I’ll give it a try and see how it turns out , thank you

You can look on Pinterest for style ideas, I used it for my son and if you still have TikTok you can find styles on there too

that’s how I got that hairstyle this morning , but I’m not seeing much other. But I’ll def do some more searching thank you

I go to lemon8 and Pinterest for ideas
