6-16-07 PhotoHunt : Hair

My daughter's hair is naturally soft and somewhere between wavy and kinky. So combing her hair (especially after I washed it) was a harrowing experience. She was already dealing with some other issues (rampant eczema and allergies), so I finally decided that she deserved some relief wherever I could provide it.

My hairdresser doesn't like to put chemicals in kids' hair when they are very young, but I threatened to do it myself at home, so she finally caved. She gave Alexis a texturizer, which is like a relaxer, but you don't let it straighten the hair too much so it retains some of it's natural wave.

As a scrapbooker, I naturally took along my camera to document the event. :)

This week’s theme: Hair

Yay! That went so WELL!




And after a trim and some curls...a cute little hairdo!
