How to Take of Your Baby's Curly Hair


In light of Mothers day being just around the corner, we decided to focus this weeks posts on tips for moms and new moms on how to manage their baby's hair.

You have your bundle of joy and want to give him or her the best hair care possible. However, you may not be sure where to turn. There are few hair care shampoos available on the market that caters to both children and curly hair. Yet, one thing is certain. You probably want to expose your child to as few chemicals and skin irritants as possible, whether that be through shampoos, styling techniques, and styling products. Well, there is help available. Although infant hair care requires special love and attention, it is very simple. Just follow the rules below and you will uncover your baby's beautiful curl pattern while also fostering the perfect environment for healthy, curly hair growth.


ONE: Apply a small amount of oil to your baby's scalp two times daily. This will moisturize the hair, help a thirsty scalp, and create an environment optimal for curly hair growth. A Great oil to use is the Dagger & Arrow Deep Treating Oil with Jojoba. Jojoba oil is particularly excellent in preventing dry scalp and not producing an oily head or face.


TWO:Avoid bad chemicals on your baby's hair, these include Vaseline, petroleum, mineral oil, sulfates, and silicones. Be also certain not to apply lotions to your child's hair that contain parabens. Parabens are proven cancer-causing agents. If you prefer a hair lotion, try Dagger & Arrow Butter Cream . It is 100% natural and includes excellent natural oils for thirsty hair you want to grow, including jojoba, shea, almond, and castor, It will also define your baby's curls. Light and silky, it will soften your baby's hair.
