Are you tired of your toddler girl's hair getting in her eyes? It's time to cut her hair fringe! Cutting hair can be intimidating, but with the right tools and technique, you can do it at home. In this guide, we'll take you through the process step-by-step. Let's get started!
How to Cut Toddler Girl Hair Fringe
What You'll Need:
- Scissors
- Comb
- Clips (to hold back the rest of the hair)
- Spray bottle (optional)
Step-by-Step Guide:
Step 1: Prep the Hair
Start by washing and drying your toddler's hair. If her hair is curly or wavy, you may want to wet it down with a spray bottle to make it easier to work with. Comb the hair out so it's tangle-free.
Step 2: Section the Hair
Use clips to hold back all the hair except for the section you want to cut. For a fringe, this will be a section at the front of the hairline.
Step 3: Determine the Length
Decide how long you want the fringe to be. It's best to start longer and trim it shorter as needed. Use your fingers or a comb to measure the length.
Step 4: Cut the Hair
Hold the hair between your fingers and cut straight across. Start from the middle and work your way out to the sides. Use a comb to check that the length is even. Repeat if needed, cutting a little bit at a time.
Step 5: Blend the Fringe
If you want a softer look, use scissors to blend the fringe into the rest of the hair. Hold the scissors vertically and make small snips into the hair.
Step 6: Style the Hair
Let down the rest of the hair and style as desired. You can use a hairbrush or comb to style the fringe.
