How tf do I get her to sit still??

tv show, snacks. something to distract her

The only time I let my daughter watch bear in the big blue house is when I want to do a more elaborate hair style on her. If you don’t like letting them use an iPad you can find shoes from the 90’s/2000 they’re much less stimulating then the shows they make now

You do it when they are sleeping. She isn't going to like it at all so it won't just be moving, it will be pain. I've never tried braids until they have a certain length, I can play with sections without panic, and they can sit for 2 episodes of a show.

Yeah ipad is the only way I get my stepdaughter to sit still

So I don’t have a daughter who is mixed and she also doesn’t have much hair, (not that it matters), but I find the best thing is put her in her chair with some snacks and a tv show she likes.

I braid my daughter's hair when she's asleep 🫣 or when she's in a bathtube /contained space so even when she moves it's not like she's running away/, she's 2.5.
