    I think they are either hat/hair kids or they aren't - no matter what you do. DD1 never took her hat off as a baby and loved having her hair done. DD2 won't have her hair brushed or washed except under extreme bribe conditions. She hates MY hair up and demands I take it out.
    At 4, she has only just accepted her hair being done because all of a sudden she wanted plaits like mum.

    oh yeah, DD hates clips and elastic too! She WILL wear a headband providing it doesn't have "teeth" and she LOVES hats... but getting her to leave her hair up? Forget it!

    I broke the cycle (that knot needed seeing to!) by sitting her in front of a new DVD with a bowl of icecream and used a detangler spray I let her choose herself (and pumped it up like it was the BEST thing in the universe).

    She let her grandad brush her hair any ole time ggrrrrr!

    MG- there are so many gorgeous clips out there as well. Such a shame!

    No idea but I am looking for hints too Miss J will wear a hat but clips and hair ties are a no-no. She just pulls them out! I think I'm just going to have to keep her hair cut in a pageboy style or similar.

    DS "brushes" my hair with duplo and picks hats for him to wear and me to wear. If I wear a hat then hats are OK: if I don't wear a hat then he will take his off. DS loves "dressing" my hair and will spend ages styling it. But doing that means I can do ANYTHING to his hair and he has to be OK with it or I won't play hair salons.

    Hair washing is still an issue but tough, he can scream and taste the lovely lavender and dill shampoo.
