Hair, Hair, and More Hair

Zoe's hair is getting so much longer and thicker.  It is still really soft and relatively easy to deal with, but it is also getting dryer and a little more unruly.  It gets fuzzy and tangled easily and so it doesn't look good for as long if I just leave it free.  So, I have been doing her hair a lot more lately.

Here are a few hairdo's from the last couple of weeks.

This one was a just a head full of twists.  This was a great hairdo because it stayed in for several days while still looking good.

I think it looks kind of like Medusa hair, but is very cute.

Look at those parts.  They are getting so much straighter.  I still struggle to keep them even, but I am getting better.

This is my very first cornrow.  I was pretty proud of it.  She was not about to hold still long enough to let me do any more, but at least we got one in and I thought it looked pretty good.  I did it right in the middle of her head since her hair is most consistent there, but it did make it look a little funny as the only cornrow on her head.  I put the rest of her hair in puffs and left it in for a couple of days, just because I couldn't bring myself to take it out, but it didn't look the best.  I am guessing it will be a little while before we are able to get a full head of cornrows, but at least now I know I am capable of doing it.

Just for fun, here are a couple of pictures of Zoe's hair when it is left to its own devices.  This is why I spend more time on her hair everyday than I do on my own.  I am not sure one why one side decided to stick up so much more than the other side.  You can really see here how long her hair is getting though.
