Humor Me

Oh Em Gee here she goes again about Lucia's hair.

Yep.

Here I go again. Humor me here. Giggle with me as we discuss the more mundane aspects of life.

Tangles, I got you beat. I've mentioned it before, but her hair was a tangly tangly mess of ratnest/cotton candy. I tried a 2 in 1 thing. Then a separate shampoo + conditioner + detangler. NADA. No change. Still tangles. Still the cries of OW MOMMY. I was starting to really sympathize with my mom, who basically said eff it and cut my hair off when I was 3. For which I may or may not have trouble letting go of.

Ahem. So anyway. I started using the fancy hair product on her -- no shampoo, nothing else, just this, and VOILA. Tangle free bouncy curl hair. Feeling jubiliant, and ok, a little cocky, I decided to comb it out last night, while it was dry. It looked really, really pretty when I was done. This morning it looked kind of unfortunate: straight in the front and curly in the back, so I propped up the front with a ponytail and she looked immediately like her name was Sabrina. Cute!

When she came in the door from daycare tonight, it was all kinds of Barry Gibb. I mean.

Look.



This is a cute kid (at least we think so), and look at this unfortunate, unfortunate hair. Somewhat curly. Somewhat stick straight. Overwhelmingly poofy. Note: yes that is Trader Joe's grapeseed oil in the shower. Highly recommend as a shaving cream and eye makeup remover.

Good news though! She's been washed and glammed up and is back to bouncy curls. I suppose I should have a picture, but I didn't want to appear a little nuts about my kid's hair. Perhaps I'm a bit too late on that?
