Hair Dilemma

Okay, so M1 is the one with the long hair that I have the flatironed pix of posted. Trouble is, about half of her length is the "texturlaxed" hair. I had said that I was going to cut the rest of the relaxed hair once school is out. I'd hate for her to loose her length, and I've gotten a hold of the breakage that she was experiencing. So, I'm thinking of not cutting it off. I've been trying to gauge her feelings loosing her length, but I'm not getting a clear picture. She keeps asking if it will look like mine, and I tell her she can style hers like mine. I think she is eluding to my hair texture rather than the style though. My hair is wavy when brushed and tight spirals otherwise, her hair is not. I told her that her hair is like her dad's and not like mine. She just kinds of looks and then walks away. So, right now since she's working with 2 textures, I just braid her hair or do a light flatiron. Her hair is so much easier to manage though when it's natural. Here's a pix of when she was all natural at age 6.

Productivity

Wonder of wonders!!! I ended up washing M1's hair last night. I could not take the fuzz anymore. It actually turned out pretty cute. I will post pixs later. She got compliments from her little friends at school. I know she thought she was cute cause she was all scrubbing her face and putting on lotion and lip gloss this morning. (out of character for my little tom-boy) I'm thinking of cutting off the rest of her "texturlaxer" during spring break, but I don't know if she can handle hair that short. It would be about 5 inches long. I still have time to decide. She has a short patch in the front where her "texturlaxed" hair popped off at the line of demarcation. Her little natural sprig is so soft and cute. It was a terror detangling the permed ends last night. If I don't chop in March, it will be my first project for summer vacation! That's all for now. Happy Valentine's Day!
