My b/g twins are 11yo. DH takes DS to get his haircut short with his other 2 brothers every 5-6 weeks. He’s ok with it short but I have to make deals with him to get him to shower. Well, until this summer. Now he’s willing to take a shower as long as I let him use our master bath and let him luxuriate in it for a long time. I’m just glad it’s not a fight anymore to get him to regularly shower. Now he just needs reminders.
Dd has long hair and dandruff from psoriasis so she has to use Neutragena Tgel shampoo at least twice a week. Otherwise I let her pick out some nice shampoo and conditioner from my salon so she enjoys showering more now. She also insists on using the master bathroom. She combs out her wet hair and is getting better at styling it. Friends at her ballet school have taught her to put in a loose bun and she’s able to braid it on her own. She almost always keeps it pulled back in a bun, braid or ponytail. She doesn’t like the hair in her face.
