My DD1 had lovely hair and I cut her fringe but left her hair long, eventually I cut her hair and she lost her ringlets , DD2's hair is crazy... half curly, half straight but not in a good way, she looks like she has bed head all the time. Even after brushing.... she refuses hair ties after 5-10 minutes and pulls everything out, she wakes up with Russell Brand's hairdo which is hilarious.... but not really looking like a cute toddler/preschooler.... We have decided to cut her hair for summer because its too much work, and I reckon she'll be happier without us fussing with it. It will suit her as well, she generally looks like a rock chick post gig.... its full on.
