How do i look after my kids hair?

Why it’s important to wash your children’s hair properly?
Children’s hair is much more delicate than adults hair so taking this into consideration you don’t need to wash it as often.
Washing it to often causes harm to their delicate scalps and strip the hair of all it’s natural oils and softness.
From the age of 9 years old hair naturally starts to get greasy that’s when you can wash it more frequently but using normal adult shampoo can be to harsh so that’s why it’s important to use kids shampoo which will be more delicate for the scalp and hair and also kinder to the eyes ,it also doesn’t contain the harsh artificial chemicals that adult’s shampoo does.
You also don’t need to use to much conditioner as their hair is still so fine and soft , it is isn’t needed .
If it is needed from life style like swimming sports then only use a small amount of it at the mid length and ends and comb from ends to roots to release the knots ,a tangle teaser brush is best to use with knots as doesn’t break the hair .
It also can help with nits as the hair is to smooth for them to grab onto making them slip .
But there is no real wrong or right way to wash your kids hair just go with what your child’s hair and scalp condition is like and don’t do it to often
Leaving hair to dry naturally is also better for their hair all year round
Don’t tie up hair with a tight band as it can cause breakage but otherwise look after their hair so when an adult they can know the right way to deal with their tresses
