She is 4 yrs old, bi-racial baby. Black/White. Her hair is always all over the place. Is it safe for me to use white hair products in her hair. I know nothing about african american hair or how to manage it. I just don't want to damage her hair. Can anyone help me.

I'm black mixed, and I have a daughter who is 3 and her father is white. She has mid-back length hair that is all over the place when she wakes up in the morning. Its a curly grade, not frizzy or "nappy" but it is still kind of... lol! What I do is use a wide tooth comb and a little hair lotion like BB, its a really good brand for little kids, and a bit of spray on detangler like Just For Me. First I spray on the detangler, then comb from the ends of her hair and work my way through until all of the tangles are out. After that I put in the hair lotion and she has perfect spirials that need no more styling unless I choose to put her hair in a ponytail or two french braids. Mixed race hair isn't all that much of a matter, its only becomes an obstacle if you see it as one. Also, don't wash her hair everyday, that only incerases the dryness, if you rinse it and condition it every other night that should suffice.
Don't use white hair products cause they are made for normal to oily hair....But whatever you do I don't recommend hair grease.

Black people have very different hair. They use very little of the products that white people use. I recommend Pointing this question at the black women here.

Try pink moisturizer they have it every where walmart, walgreens, etc., its cheap. But it just depends on her hair texture, some people have courser hair than others. Our hair is dryer and more brittle and has to be managed carefully just be careful but I do use white and black products in my hair.. whatever works!
There has to be separate products for black and white people b/c our hair is different why would someone say somethin so stupid.

Yes , it is perfectly safe to use "white products" on her hair. 'White products" just may not work as well as "black products"

Yes you can but they tend to need more conditioner products though , or leave in type conditioner spray.It helps to control the frizz.
