I had a similar issue with Simone over her hair. I did get it cut off once, from shoulder blade to chin, when she was about 3 years old, over the tangles and her not wanting to brush it. Sometime over the summer though, she took more of an interest in taking care of her hair (my girlfriend Amanda, who is a hairdresser, talked some sense into her and gave Simone her very own hairbrush to use). So now she brushes it every day, and if not every day, when I tell her it needs attention.

I'm so glad that ordeal is over.
