My dd is 4 and her hair is still on the short side. I take really good care of her hair but each week when I do it, I lose some curls in the tub and lose a few in the brush out. Her hair is very dry so I use CD hair butter or hair milk when I do her hair weekly and add spray during the week to keep her braids moist. Does different types of AA hair grow slower? I'd thought all hair grew at like 1/2 inch per month, but the attached pic of her and my older daughter at Xmas shows that her hair is not as long as I've seen other AA children at her age. Is there something more I should be doing?
