Hot: Day 16-Straightening out the moosh.

Straight B&W

straight and in her eyes

In case you’re wondering what all the hubbub is about, this is the moosh on a normal day, without a hot iron:

A new favorite.

This is only the second time I’ve ever attempted to straighten her hair. I say attempted because between the humidity and her sweaty nature, it lasted about as long as it takes to sneeze.

The best part? When I finally straightened the very top layer of her hair (her bangs) she doubled over in fits of laughter. At first I thought it was because she realized she looked so different.

Then I realized it was because her hair was tickling her nose and cheeks, something that has NEVER happened to her. Her hair has never fallen in her face, it only launches off the top of her head when it’s unkempt.

  1. Those are some adorable pictures. I agree with the commenter who mentioned she looks like Dakota Fanning.

    Kudos to you for taking the time to straighten her hair and to the Moosh for being patient enough to let you.

  2. That is one cute kid!
    I have to ask, what do you do to keep her curls in order? Product, how often do you wash it? My girl has very similar curls and I can never seem to get them under control. Having stick straight hair myself I am completely lost when it comes to the curls. She is three now and starting pre-school and I would love for her not to look like a little ragamuffin within an hour of arriving at school. Help!

  3. Isn’t it neat that we can do that for our girls without resorting to nasty chemicals?

    Princess asked me to straighten her hair once and since I had time I said yes. After two passes of the straightening iron she said it was too hot and didn’t want me to do any more. Even though I only did those two sections it was such a difference. A totally different girl. And I didn’t realize just how long that hair is either!
