Tell Dad Hair Hero how many minutes you have and it shows the styles that fit, with her hair type taken into account. Free, no account, no tracking. In the app:
- Her hair, not hair in general. Choose Straight, Wavy, Thick, Curly or Coily under "her hair today" and the steps and pictures change to the method for her hair.
- A check before every step. Each step ends with what it should look and feel like, so you know it is right before you move on.
- Fix It, mid-style. When something is not right, "Something's not right" opens the fix for it without leaving the step.
- The diary. Add a photo and a note when you finish, and see what you have done and what to try next.
Free, with six everyday styles and all eight techniques. No account, no ads, no tracking.
More ways in: easy hairstyles, curly and coily hair, toddler hairstyles, sports hairstyles and party hairstyles, or all eighteen styles.
