Daycare mums

Most days I go to pick DD up they have done her hair for her. Which sounds really sweet, it is, all the girls take turns sitting in the teacher's lap for a turn. I think this is why DD didn't freak out at her 1st haircut because she's used to someone playing with it & she loves clips & bows & stuff (so not me!)

Trouble is, I don't really like her hair styled in pigtails & stuff. I like one clip to keep it out of her eyes but that's it. Her hair just doesn't suit much else. The days I pick her up and it's like 2 huge pineapples sticking out the sides of her head, I just cringe. Do I just keep quiet? Most days we are going straight home anyway but if not, I have to re-do her hair.

Do I keep quiet? I think I know the answer here, I don't want to offend her teacher.

I would keep quiet. I'm sure she enjoys all the attention her other little friends get.

 I wish they would do Jack's hair after nap. He has curly hair and it's always crazy when I pick him up. I used to show up with a squirt bottle and a comb at first. I gave that up and just have a crazy haired child now.

I would just tell them that you prefer her hair a particular way.  I always tell my son's daycare what I do and do not like.  No biggie. 

I wonder if you daughter likes the way she looks in the mirrow when they style her hair.  Maybe that is why thy continue to do it?

It sounds like she probably likes it... I'd just keep a comb handy incase you're going somewhere after you pick her up.

Agreed.
