Pearl loves caring for her long, wavy hair. She brushes it carefully before visiting her friends at the coral garden. Add your favorite colors to give Pearl a magical new hairstyle!
Pearl’s Hair-Care Moment
Pearl is taking a quiet moment to brush her long, wavy hair. She wants it neat and smooth before she visits her friends in the coral garden. The picture is full of lovely lines in her hair, so it is a fun page for careful coloring. You can make each wave one color or blend several shades together. What color would look most magical as it floats through the water?
Color the Wavy Hair and Coral
Use three shades of the same color in Pearl’s hair, such as light, medium, and dark brown, to show the wavy strands. Purple, pink, or blue hair would be magical too. Make her brush gold, orange, or pearl white. Coral can be bright pink, red, orange, or purple, because real coral comes in many colors. Choose a soft aqua background so the hair and coral stand out clearly.
Why Brushing Helps Hair
Brushing can help smooth tangles from hair, especially after playing or sleeping. It is gentlest to start near the ends and slowly work upward with help from a grown-up if there are knots. Hair can be straight, wavy, curly, coily, short, or long, and every kind is special. In the ocean, a mermaid’s hair is pretend, but real sea plants can wave and sway underwater like long hair.
