Try using a natural hair milk, conditioner, or butter and give her some two strand twists instead of braids. The twists will be easier on her hair and will allow it to grow and breathe!

Try Castor Oil on the parts that are breaking. My 2 year old had the bald spot in the back and Qhemet's Amla & Olive or Burdock Root helped to fill it in.

If you aren't picky on ingredients then I really swear by Perfectiv Oil (may be spelled different). Not the lotion but the oil. I haven't used the lotion but I would put that on her scalp. Use satin pillowcases and encourage her to wear a bonnet or scarf to protect her hair.

Curls has products for babies and kids. (Curls.biz that is). I had to work around my baby's spot that was shorter and when I could grab her hair some, I started twisting it lightly so that it didn't mat down during sleep or in every day play.

Sleeping on a satin pillow slip are in a satin bonnet is a good for less breakage
