My lil girl is 4 years old and shes mix with black and hispanic she has very curly hair and i get tired of combing her hair everyday...any more sugestions

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

What kind of comb do you use? If it's a regular toothed comb...it's not gonna work. I have a mixed 3 year old daughter, she's multi-racial, mostly white, with mid back length hair. I'd never dream of running the risk of ruining her hair by straightening it. I use a wide toothed comb a detangler and some hair lotion and I comb it while its saturated with the detangler then after I'm done with combing I put in the hair lotion, from there I either put it in a ponytail or two braids. And the people out there that don't know your situation or haven't dealt with mixed kids hair really can't judge you, but find what best works. My cousin's son is black and hispanic, his hair is long and what she does is style it while its wet. Your best bet is to rinse it every other night and use a cream leave in conditioner to help with the curls and to soften it, braid it into big braids at night while its wet, it'll help with the tangles. And if its more like "black" hair, don't try combing it everyday. Put it in little pony tails with twists, to hold the twist use a hair cream and this stuff called JAM. It'll hold for more than two days.

It is safe to flat iron her hair but not ideal, she's only four!!! Try using different products when you wash her hair, like shampoos, conditioners or leave in tretment that detangles or straightens to make it easier to handle before you get her on a routine of such an addicting beauty routine so so so early in life!

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

of course. just make sure you're using a silicone serum or any type of heat protector prior. i prefer paul mitchell super skinny or redken heat glide.

you could consider a relaxer. i realize she's just 4 years old, but it would make both of your lives easier!

check with your local salon.

you might just want to perm it. or braid it. i would ask a stylist. it might depend on the hair's condition. does she just have a lot of it, or is it really dry?

good luck, she sounds beautiful.

Its bad for her hair, dont be lazy, shes ur daughter! I wouldnt straighten it until like fourth grade,then u can get it relaxed so you wont have to deal with it anyway. By then she'll be able to comb herself lol. DONT DO IT!

I would worry that you would burn her. If she sits very, very still flat ironing might be a possiblity, but this is very unlikely for someone that is 4. My kids are 5 %26amp; 7 and there is not way I would try it.

You should really check with a good salon. There are quite a few stylists now that are trained in some new relaxer techniques. This would make her hair so much more manageable. Especially the back of the neck hair that just gets so clumped.

If you do flat iron, make sure you have one of the really nice irons or you are going to just burn the hair

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

yes it's ok.. but doing so everyday can damage her hair especially that she's still young. that can make her hair dry and brittle.

It should not be no hard job to comb your little girl hair, if you dont want to comb her hair each day get her hair braided, it will keep for at least a week, and to make it easy just brush her hair and comb it to the back and use those pretty little bands they comes in different colours and band it that is very easy.

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

yes, but keep the heat far away from her scalp, and make sure she understands that it can be dangerous if she moves around alot while youre doing that because of the heat. and definitly use a serum to protect her hair from damage.

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

yes as long as you don't burn her it al right sweetie.

Sure, if you want her to grow up thinking there is something wrong with her hair the way it is or that she's not as pretty with her own natural hair.

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

Let the curls flow, or you'll have an emotional basket case of a daughter. Your teaching her that she is ugly and what God gave her is wrong. Your sick. By the way I have curly hair. Use products with dimethicone (frizz ease, silicone hair serum) and then comb gel through it. Let it dry naturally and scrunch while drying so that ringlets form

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

NO!!!! A HOT IRON ON YOUR 4 YEAR OLD/ ARE YOU NUTS???

shes your little girl!!! enjoy her for who she is! are you trying to give her a complex??? try braiding, pony tails, or pigtails. if your at your end, go to the salon and ask for a kid/mom friendly style you can both cope with!

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

its okay, as long as u dont get too close to skin.

Is it safe to flat iron a lil girls hair shes 4?

The only thing is- you ARE teaching her that her hair the way it is naturally is not good enough. I don't mean disrespect, but that is lazy. Don't say that it's a pain in the butt to brush it and then say you are only looking for new hairstyles, she is FOUR! You are a wonderful mother I'm sure but why would you want to damage her hair with such a high heat? Take her to a salon and start having them give her professional conditioning treatments- they are usually about $10 and last around 6 weeks. This way you both can enjoy her beautiful curls- and don't let her go to bed with wet hair- it causes tangles and matting. Especially in curly hair.

i think you should do it and dont listen to these other ppl about being a bad mom or lazy bc your not your just trying to manage your babys hair better and there is nothing wrong with it! so good luck xoxo

I understand her hair is difficult to manage. You need to layer cut the hair to make it more manageable. Ask the stylist to use thinning shears to remove some of the bulk. Do not use a flat iron on a four year old. Her scalp is too thin to risk burning her. The burns at this age can do lifelong damage. You are not a bad mother she just needs a better cut. I wish people who where not licensed stylist trained in ethnic hair would stop answering these questions.
