My friend is really worried about her 4 year old DD.
Ever since Ash was born she sucked her thumb. As soon as she was on the ground she'd pick up strands of hair & wrap them around her thumb, then suck.
When she started crawling she went for the brush.
When her hair got longer she started twirling it & has gotten worse & worse even leaving bald patches.
My friend has tried all she can think of. She bought a clip with hair on it to try to stop her pulling her own hair out.
She recently cut it all off hoping Ash wouldn't be able to get hold of it & wouldn't worry about it.
She feels like the only thing left to do is shave her head. But Ash starts school next year & she doesn't really want to do that.

We are desperate. Has any one got any ideas???
