I used to have a little girl with the same issue. I did put her hair into a clip or ponytail, but only because she was extremely pigeon-toed and kind of clumsy. She had a hard enough time as it was with walking, nevermind having hair in her face!
I would definitely be tucking it up under a cap or hat while outside, though.
It is a safety concern too. This little guy does fall down a lot. I am not sure 100% if it is the hair or whether it is just that he is a bundle of energy who hasn't quite caught up with the motor skills and balance to match but I am sure the hair doesn't help.

the day after I posted his mom walked in and said " I know ! I know! I need to cut his bangs!" I almost had a heart attack thinking she had read the forum. lol But one week later and still no hair cut.

we were at the park yesterday and he was on a piece of play equipment where there is a step up to the next level. I swear he didn't see it and fell and bumped his forehead. It was not good.

Playfelt - I never heard that about curls not coming back. I am pretty sure his are the real deal. His hair is really thick. It is not thin curly baby fine hair. He has some serious hair going on -- hair that most women would kill for. lol
