Yeah, I have that problem too. Everyone just tells me, "keep practicing, it'll start feeling more natural, etc..." I'm not sure, though. Plus, it's hard to "practice" on a moving target
I'm so afraid that the thinning on her hairline will be permanent, so I'm extra paranoid...No one but me is allowed to do her hair. Do you think that's a bit extreme? Well, I would let a professional, but who has the money for that?! I was so thankful when my birthdaughter was born bald!!! She still doesn't have quite enough hair to mess with.
