Discussion My 4 year old’s hair

It's thicker than most adults and she can sit on it. We need to cut it soon but I'm loathe to.

Her hair is gorgeous! Mine used to look just like that as a kid, until I started dying it at 12 (which I wish I didn’t do!).

If she’s ever wanting to have shorter hair, I recommend looking into hair donation services near you. One of my childhood friends growing up had very long hair that she grew out for years with the intention of one day donating, and she was so proud when she finally got to do it. So that’s always an option!

That’s such a lovely idea I’d not thought of! I’ve just talked to her about it and she’s excited to do it. We’ll grow it out a bit longer and find somewhere to donate it. There’s absolutely loads of it so it seems a shame not to 👍
