The Diaries of a White Mamma- {Hair Edition}

I was schooled in doing Caleb's hair, er NOT doing Caleb's hair. Caleb turned 8 months old yesterday and up two days ago he has never had a comb through his hair.  Yes, you read that right, I am a horrible mother that does not know hot to do her child's hair. I didn't know if you should comb right through, if it would make the hair more frizzy or hurt him. So nothing was done, because that is me, the "all or nothing" girl. Not my greatest feature.

Anyways, I had a friend over on Thursday and had her way with Caleb. There were lots of tears, not sure if there were more from me, or more from him. She greased up that boy and combed through his giant head of hair. And there were more tears.

He had beautiful hair before, but my oh my, some product and some work, what a beautiful boy I have!

Give me some grace, k?

I so enjoy reading your blog.. especially those about the hair thing with little Caleb - so hilarious!! Listen, I'm black but I have no kids.. I'm not so sure I'd even know what to do with Caleb's hair or any other child's hair for that matter.. LOL LOL. But you are so funny Kristin, and so blessed...

Kristin, There is a good product out there I used to use on one of my clients who had similar hair. I cannot remember the name but it is at Sallys. I have to go there this week so I will look when I go. It is like a leave in conditioner and amazing and doesnt make the hair greesy. I will find it for you. We could put a comb right through his hair if we used it. Also, egg whites work too and so does Mayo (although mayo leaves an awful smell). But they do not work as well as this product. I am on a mission to find it!
