Straightening my 6 year olds hair

Is it weird?

Dd has beautiful, naturally curly hair, long hair. We always tell her how gorgeous it is, but she often says she’d like to have straight hair and has asked if I could straighten it just for her first day back at school. I don’t like the idea of doing it at this age
Would you?

3 of my daughters friends have very curly hair, gorgeous, they occasionally have it straightened and have done since about age 5 (now 8)
I'll straighten my daughters for school photo's/family do's etc but that's to make it look presentable or else she might have sticky out bits
