I think I ruined my Daughters Curly Hair..Can I bring her Curls Back?

Hi,
I am hoping to find some helpful tips here. I do not have curly hair. My husbands family does though. So I had no idea how to handle my daughters curls. Well I *thought* I knew how to handle them...but I think I have destroyed my Daughters once Gorgeous curls.
My Daughter is 6. She started to get curly hair at about 1 when her hair started to grow in. I was So Unsure what to do. So I started to wet her hair down every day. That was working! We had Gorgeous 3A curls for years. Then as preschool and kdg started I would wake her up every single morning to look put together for school and with a Spray Bottle and a Comb (Bad I now know
) I would comb out her hair and spray at the same time to get it soaked and then I would put creme gel in. This worked for a few years and we still had curly hair. But now she is wavy in most parts...2A-2B. Curls still frame around her face. Just all of the other once gorgeous spirals are gone! I cant help but think I have combed them away each and every day combing and wetting her hair which I thought was helpful to then scrunch and put product in. I now feel like I have combed them away.
I just bought the Curly Girl book and I am about to start! Daughter just got a trim.
Any chance I can bring those curlies back that I combed through for years?
Any styling products that are a Must Have?
Thanks so much for reading all of this.

Hair texture comes from the root. If something you do damages it IR changes it, it will at least grow back into what it is.
If over combing did something to it, it would be temporary. It'll start to curl once you stopped. Little kids hair changes a lot.

And I also have to agree it's probably just her age, nothing you did. As a 2 yo I had wavy hair. At 6 it was stick-straight. By 12 I had the hair I have today.

(Also is her hair longer now? If her hair is super long, it might be weighing the curls down).
