Because tangled hair isn’t this sexy in reality.

Dear Bare Beauty,

LOVE your post on baby products. I have two girls (ages 5 and 8) and am constantly reading labels.

 Would love to hear your thoughts on other products, specifically hair detanglers. If you have a girl you’ll soon learn how brushing after a bath can be tough and nearly end up in battle. Eek!

Dear Lisa,

I AM having a girl, and I remember those battles with my own mom.  Eek is right.  Luckily, there are some great hair detanglers out there for children as well as us grown gals.  (See below.)

Thanks for reading,

Jessica
