When does texture show in children?

[laurend085]

I found a picture of myself from when I was about 1.5 years old. I could see a little pattern and was wondering if that will be what my natural hair will be like or if that's still baby hair? Do I need to post a pic?

Well im not sure but i would say somewhere between 2 and 3 atleast. My son had baby fine straight hair as did i (like pin straight) and it is nowhere near that now! I know that your texture can change due to different things over your life so i would say don't go 100% by a baby picture. Are you transitioning?

Yes I agree with Addy My brothers hair gradually changed and changed over the years from straight to wavy to slightly curly to curly and now its just a huge fro. He is 14.

My daughter is three and her texture is different from the way it was when she was 1 and 2. At one her hair was really soft and kind of silky. at two it was still a little soft but not as silky. and now its way kinky! lol. I wouldnt be suprised if it gets even more kinky in the years to come.

I think it changes a few times, at least mine did. My hair settled into one kind of texture around 1 1/2 -2 years old, changed again around puberty, and then finally settled for a while when I was in my mid to late teens. (And then it changed a bit again with pregnancy and child-bearing, , and I expect it will probably change some more after menopause.) My son's hair settled into its current texture around 3 years old. My daughter will be two this summer, and her hair is still changing.

I've noticed true texture probably around the age of 3. Hair changes so much in kids.

I had my true texture at 1 - sounds like that's pretty rare though.

I am still hoping and waiting for my daughter's hair to change!! She was born with huge silky curls that gradually straightened. She is 4 now and it is bone straight. I want those curls back!!!!!!!!!!!
