LAS means scalp sunburns!

Here's another picture, this one from late summer, 2005.  Poor little Caroline's scalp is always exposed to the brutal sun so I must either slather her head in sunscreen or make her wear a hat. As I recall, getting a toddler to wear a hat for more than 36.9 seconds was akin to impossible.  Normal-haired older sister is next to her for comparison purposes.
Unfortunately, not much has changed in the way of prepping to spend time in the sun.  I always need to make sure Caroline has some sunscreen on her part, at least.  If she's going to be at the pool for hours, I usually just end up spraying her head with greasy sunscreen, which doesn't help the texture or ease of combing her hair apres swim- it's such a catch-22!
