is what you need.
My daughter was 8 when she had hers done on Day 1, she was extremely determined. We had it done at the Jayakarta as that's where we stayed. We had to get it done again before we left as she wanted it 'fresh' for school.
I think it took just as long to take the plaits OUT as it did to put them in and I would suggest that pay the same girls to take them out as it will do your head in trying to get those teeny tiny plaits out !
I think anything younger than an age where they 'understand' is too young. Its takes a hell of a long time. GOOD LUCK.
