Child Hair Style

For the first year of child rearing, it's important to create a soft and simple hairstyle that will allow you to spend more time with your baby and less time styling your hair. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that you must chop off your long locks. There are many easy ways that you can keep hair that is shoulder length or longer off your face -- and away from baby's eager fingers!

If you decide to keep your hair long, I recommend light layers around the face to create movement and open your eyes and cheekbones. A blunt cut can be very heavy and more difficult to manage. Once you have the right cut, hair accessories are the key to low-maintenance long hair. Experiment with various clips and barrettes until you find a look that works for you. Try twisting your hair up or pull it back in an elegant and easy chignon.
