3 Reasons Why The Cornrow Bee Hive is the Perfect #NaturalHair Style for Kids

The Beehive has been the foundation pattern for the Sew-N-Weave and Crotchet Braids for many years. This pattern continues to reign supreme above all other cornrow patterns because of it’s easy installation. Certainly I am not encouraging anyone to install a Sew-N-Weave or Crotchet Braids in their child’s hair. Heaven forbid! I am simply sharing 3 reasons why the Cornrow Beehive is the perfect hassle free hairstyle for children ages 5 and under.

The Beehive is a Time Saver

There is nothing more irritating to a small child than to spend an entire Saturday or Sunday getting their hair done. The Beehive is a life saver! This hairstyle is cute and takes very little effort to achieve. Depending on the child, the Beehive installation can take between 30 minutes to an hour to complete. For children ages 5 and under, parting the hair doesn’t necessarily have to be perfect. The Beehive can last up to 2 weeks. Instead of spending hours doing your child’s hair on “regimen day”  you both can go outside and enjoy the Spring weather.

The Beehive is Low Maintenance

Are you looking for a hairstyle that allows your child to wake up and go? It gets no better than the Beehive. To maintain this hairstyle, use the product of your choice every few days to keep hair moisturized. Also allow your little one to sleep with a hair bonnet on her head overnight to ensure that the Beehive last exactly 2 weeks. One of the perks of having a low manipulation hairstyle is the advancement of hair growth.

The Beehive is a Stress Reliever

Literally! Cornrows are braided in a circular motion, preventing pulling around the hairline and nape. The Beehive is easy to install and take minutes to take out. Not to mention, your little princess can rest peacefully without a whole head full of beads and barrettes hindering her from getting a good night sleep. Above all, your child’s hair will look amazing with very little effort on your part. YAY!

If you are looking for a hassle free hairstyle for your daughter, the Beehive is the perfect option.

What are some of your favorite low maintenance hairstyles for children ages 5 and under?
