Advice for single dad with two little girls?

[jayanna]

okay, a couple of things that have helped me in the hair dept.

Detangler, detanlger, detangler. It's a spray, buy it.

When they are big enough to leave the baby shampoo behind, 2-in-1 shampoo.

Soapy water can give them urinary tract infections, don't leave them in it very much.

Peanut butter gets gum out of hair.

If they have bangs, keep them trimmed or they will get desperate and cut them themselves. I would give my 2 year old a tootsie pop while I cut her hair to get her to sit still. I know, bribery, but it works.

Cute headbands can go a long way. Barrettes are tricky, they slide out, and get lost easy.

Public bathrooms? Go before you go.

Keep an extra set of clothes and shoes in the trunk of the car. For everybody.

Bedtime goes a lot easier if there is a routine. Read to them at night and tuck them in, little girls love that.
