Shampoo with Creme of Nature which is a conditioning shampoo. Follow up with a deep conditioner. I find that a mix of the deep conditioners that come in the packets work wonders. Comb through with conditioner in hair. If it is really unruly you can twist or braid it in four sections before rinsing the conditioner out. It will be more management after rinsing. Fantasia has a great leave in conditioner. Carol's Daughter has a limited edition Princess and the Frog set for girls, or you can buy the products separately. I like the hair milk, healthy hair butter, and oils and leave in conditioners. Some people like Miss Jessie's Curly pudding which is uber-expensive but supposedly you only need a little to go a long way. If all else fails keep sending her to the beautician or find a good African braider. The right products do wonders. Shampoo with Creme of Nature which is a conditioning shampoo.

Well I am natural so I deal with the same issues as an adult. I am tenderheaded but I just deal with it. Shampoo her hair first, then apply conditioner (with hair parted in 4 sections), work conditioner through from the ends up to the roots and sit her under the dryer for about 15 minutes and rinse with cool water (this will soften the hair)... follow up with a detangler. This should help with styling. Check out: <a href="http://www.afrokinks.com/curlyq.html" target="_blank">http://www.afrokinks.com/curlyq.html</a> for hair products for kids. Also when you blowdry her hair use a paddle brush (<a href="http://www.stylebell.com/Babyliss-Paddle-Brush-p/sb-00598.htm)" target="_blank">http://www.stylebell.com/Babyliss-Paddle-Brush-p/...</a> and a thermal heat protectant ( <a href="http://www.folica.com/Heat_Prote_452_1.html" target="_blank">http://www.folica.com/Heat_Prote_452_1.html</a> ) I hope this helps girly. Let me know if you try it! So she does not have a relaxer? Well I am natural so I deal with the same issues as an adult. I am tenderheaded but I just deal with it.

But the time it would take would be the issue. I was told for her hair, it would take 3 to 6 hours. I have thought about getting two strand twists done. But the time it would take would be the issue.

LOL. I know there are some other alternatives out there, I just have to research I guess. I am trying to be patient with it but what I really want to do sometimes is to cut if all off and start over.
