A girl’s hair is her crowning glory. At The Hair Helper we believe that every little girl should feel this way about the head of hair she is adorned with. Of course, only having one hair type in our home, makes it tricky to talk about various tips and tricks for looking after all the different types of hair that you will find. So, we’ve enlisted the help of some lovely ladies, who we’ve met through social media.
In this post Muslim Mummy, Fozia shares how she cares for her little girl Bee’s lovely locks.
Tell us about yourself

How old is your daughter?
How would you describe your daughter’s hair?
My daughters hair is long. If I hadn’t cut it it would probably be past her bum by now. It is quite thin and when short it is quite wavy.
What products do you use, and find work on your daughter’s hair?
How often do you wash your daughter’s hair?
I believe too much washing can also damage the hair. In winter I do not wash it more than twice a week. If it doesn’t look like it needs a wash or doesn’t smell then I will just do it once a week. In summer we will wash it more due to heat and sweat.
How often do you cut your daughter’s hair?
Not often. I was arranging regular cuts as she had a lot of baby hair and we cut it to try to strengthen it. Now we go for a cut in September before school term begins if needed.
What hairstyles do you find work best in your daughter’s hair?
Hints or Tips for people with the same hair type?
I do believe less is more….too many products on the hair can be damaging so my advice is not to go overboard with the little ones hair.
Oooh I hadn’t heard of using Baby Oil before but am really intrigued. My daughter has lovely hair (if only she would brush it!)
I completely agree with the overwashing thing. My children only wash their hair once a week. We only use natural shampoos too.
Interesting to see what someone else does and some handy tips here!
Natural shampoo is love
Great Post. Really it will help lot of people. Thanks
