Its a mission to comb my 2 yr old daughters hair

Maria

Good evening ladies 🙂

In search for advice: My 2 yr old hates but I mean hates for anyone to touch her hair let alone comb it or do a pony tail.. she was recently said to be autistic.. but before her autism diagnosis, I’ve been Paying attention and now when I try to comb her hair or put it up in a bun or pony tail.. she hits herself not hard but none the less hits her head with her hands.. I try calming her down.. give her toys or maybe a snack.. try to distract her with her favorite show… I’m thinking if maybe cutting her hair.. would that be the way to go?? I really don’t want to cut it but I think to make it better for her.. any advice, always welcome 🤗
