Is their hair like yours????

Is your child's hair like yours? I am wondering b/c my oldest daughter is transitioning right now. My hair hates olive oil. It makes my hair very dry and hard. I found out that African's Pride Organic Kids line of products has a detangling moisturizer in it but it contains olive oil. It also has a few proteins in it that my hair doesn't care for either.
She and I have the same hair texture.

What are the chances that her hair will frown at this product?

I'm curious about responses to this.

My daughter's hair looks quite different from mine; it's very clear that the outer layer of her hairs lie much flatter than mine, her curl pattern is different and more uniform than mine, etc, etc. But our hair tends to like the same products (hers just doesn't need quite as much moisturizing as mine). I don't know if that's a trend, so I'm curious what other parents have found!

My daughter's hair is VERY different from mine. I would consider her a 3c/4a, her hair is thick overall but her individual strands are thin and curly. (I'm not natural but I would consider myself to be about a 4b.) It is about shoulder length and I am scared to death to do a style with it out. It must all be braided or twisted. My step daughters hair is 4b/4c and their hair thrives on Mane and Tail, however, it did not work on my daughter at all. I am currently using the African's Pride Organic Kids line too and I love the detangler/moisturizer. I am interested in using the Curly Q's line to define her curl more and give her the opportunity to actually wear her hair out. We'll see!

My daughter and I could be hair twins! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I'm new to the hair typing but from what I've read, I'm like a 4a/4b but my daughter (who's 7) is more like a 4b/4c.

Some products that work well for my hair (Suave, coconut oil) don't work well with her hair and vice versa (Herbal Essences).

My daughter's hair is very different from mine -- she has very fine, thin curly strands whereas my hair is very very thick and kinky/coily.

My daughters hair is different from mine. It is VERY dry!! Her hair sucks on moisture and is dry as a bone moments later so I spend a lot of time giving her hair moisture. I am 3b/3c and she is more 3c/4a. Her hair has that dusty look like her daddy!

My daughters hair is different. Hers is deep s wavy w/curly ends...mine is curly/coily. We use the same hair products!

Different. I have been natural for a year now. My hair is lots of things. It has patches of coils. It's mostly an undefined, not really coily or curly, but it's very thick and frizzy waves. Sort of looks like a blow dry, but only half way done. I must use braids or twists to get "definition". My hair can get very dry and straw like if I am not careful.
My daughter? Fine strands, but lots of volume, very thick. Tons of bouncy shiny, type 3 curls and coils.
We can luckily share most products, but I make most of them. I can tolerate butter very heavy, for example, but for her it must be much lighter and creamy.
Time to submit pics I suppose!

My mum is 4a and I'm 3b/3c.

Is she co-washing through her traansition? Because I noticed the product is loaded with silicones, so she may get build up if she's just cowashing.

Not at all! My son (no daughter for me!) has a blend of my kinky curls and his daddy's straight, smooth texture. His hair is nothing like mine at all! The products I use tend to be too heavy for his hair.

See! So different. Definitely a learning experience for me!
