4 year old hair questions

My daughter is 4 and she has so much hair- without shrinkage its to her behind. It tangles easily and she's extremely tender-headed. I've been seriously thinking of cutting her hair short, since I think the length is part of whats making it hard for us to have a positive hair session. What do you think?

Please dont. Google PROTECTIVE hair styles and pick one for each month of the year. you'll be happy and she will too. Short hair is alot more work(unless you'll give her a TWA-which may be quite mature for her age, and hard to deal with amongst her peers. Let us know what you choose.
