This has been Ashlyn's hairstyle since the beginning of December....up in a ponytail.  The reason is not to keep her hair off her face, but to hide the big gob of glue that is still stuck to her hair.
Ashlyn fell down the stairs and had to be taken to the ER one evening about 2 months ago.  She had quite a gash on her head and definitely needed stitches.  The ER doctor decided it would be better to glue the scalp together, rather than use staples, so that we wouldn't have to return to have them removed.  At the time I was happy with the decision, thinking it was great that they didn't have to shave her head.  Now I am thinking it was the wrong decision.  While the glue has come away from her scalp, there is no way to get it out of her hair.  I am actually going to have to cut it out and remove a much larger section of hair than anticipated.  I am delaying this as long as possible and just hiding it with her ponytail for now....unless anyone out there knows how to get glue out of hair?
