New School Year, New Hair ‘Do For the 6 Yr Old


My 6 year old has a lot of hair. This summer, I have been keeping her natural hair curly for the most part. She has tight curls that look nice with a little bit of product on it. But for the new school year, she wanted to jazz it up a little and we decided to get it professionally straightened by a stylist.

No chemicals of course. Just a flat iron and a stylist that knows how to get it straight without too much heat or damage. The result was simply gorgeous. My 6 yr old is going back to school with a new look!

I visited Salon Edge in the heart of Midtown St. Louis near St. Louis University and Grand Center. Our stylist, Sandra Dee, specializes in natural hair and had a knack for working with my 6 yr old’s tender head.

Here is the finished product:

      Thank you Sera! She loves her new more “big girl” hairstyle. Back to school shopping and prep is so much fun for the kids but not very much fun for the parents. LOL.

    Beautiful. Also don’t like exposing kids to chemicals even though the African hair can be really hard to manage.

    HELP! I have a 10 year old and 5 year old and there hair is sooooo thick and long and it hurts to comb it. I get so frustrated with it and end up brushing it with water and putting it in a couple of ponytails. Within the next two days it’s sometimes matted at the roots. There hair is curly and very, very thick. I was thinking of giving my them relaxer but I really don’t want to. Please if there’s any straightening system, please let me know QUICK!

      I would say no to the relaxer because as children, their hair type is still changing and processing it will not be healthy for the hair. I would suggest seeking the knowledge of a licensed who can take a look at your children’s hair and come up with ways to style it while keeping it healthy. Protective styles like 3 strand twists and braids will help keep the hair healthy and manageable and easy to style. I get my daughter’s hair that is naturally curly professionally done once a month at the hair stylist. I am able to keep it up by rolling her hair at night with a bonnet and keeping it up in ponytails. Hopefully that helps you.
