How to take care of our children's hair?

There are many rituals and preconceived ideas surrounding children's hair. Children shouldn't cut their hair before a certain age, or their heads should be completely shaved on their fourth day of life or on their first birthday. Some cultures even keep a lock of their baby's hair. It's a unique keepsake.

However, no matter what type of hair your child has, how do you care for their hair? And, most importantly, which natural products should you use? We're going to give you the best advice for a natural hair routine for toddlers!

What natural products should I use for my child's hair?

To care for your little one's hair, it's essential to carefully choose the products you use. Depending on the child's age and, more importantly, the nature of their hair, we'll prioritize certain ingredients. From the age of 3 , you can establish a simple routine to enhance their hair. Choose products with a composition based on ingredients that are at least 95% natural.

Go for simple products:

- Gentle shampoo for washing the scalp. Many children have sensitive or even dry scalps; gentle shampoo is ideal because it does not irritate the skin .

- To gently detangle hair, choose the Detangling Balm Base, a real gem even for curly, frizzy or difficult-to-detangle hair.

- Don't forget to nourish the lengths with the Hair Care , certified ORGANIC and ECOCERT, its composition based on Aloe Vera and Shea butter for deep hydration and nutrition.

How do I take care of my child's hair?

We consider ourselves lucky when babies are born with a beautiful head of hair, but things get more complicated as it grows and needs to be cared for. First, you should know that hair texture changes in the first few years of life. Generally, babies often have very soft and smooth hair. But don't worry, their natural texture will soon appear.

After having established the child's routine (from 3 years old) and chosen the right products, it is important to be regular and disciplined .

One very important thing: involve the child in the routine and, above all, explain all the steps. The child must understand that their hair needs nutrition and hydration.

For textured hair, it is necessary to teach the child to love their hair , because textured hair requires more care and maintenance, it can become more complicated for the child.

Wash, moisturize, nourish

You can start with a three-step routine.

WASH :

To wash your child's hair no more than twice a week , use theGentle Shampoo Base. Our neutral bases are suitable for all hair types, thanks to their composition of at least 97.7% natural ingredients.

When washing, massage your scalp in circular motions; this will ensure proper cleansing and stimulate hair growth. Good habits are learned early!

HYDRATE :

Hair hydration is done with water-rich ingredients likeAloe Vera .

Moisturizing your hair is essential. Textured hair really needs hydration because the scalp's natural sebum doesn't spread all the way down its length. Note that the more moisturized your hair is, the bouncier and more defined your curls and coils will be.

Detangling and styling my child's hair

Detangling toddlers' hair

Often synonymous with screaming and crying, detangling is the "nightmare" of all parents and children. Transform this moment into a time of sharing and exchange with your child. First of all, this step can be done before or after washing. First, dampen the hair with water, separate the hair into three sections (or more depending on the hair volume). Apply the Detangling Conditioner to the lengths. Using a wide-toothed comb or your fingers, detangle section by section, starting from the bottom and working your way up , keeping one hand on the lengths to avoid pulling on the hair. Leave on for a few minutes and rinse the hair.

It's quite simple: you just need to have the right actions and the right products.

Styling your child's hair

Finding a simple, pretty hairstyle that will last all day is no easy task for children. Opt for braids, twists, or reimagined buns, which are a real hit with little girls.

To style your child's hair in the morning, nothing could be simpler. Depending on the nature of the hair, moisten the lengths with water. Once the hair is damp, apply a light dab of Hair Care Base and comb gently. Create the hairstyle you want. For a light and natural hold, useAloe Vera Gel .

For children, it is also important to have an evening routine, this nighttime routine will make styling easier in the morning . To avoid tangles, create a protective hairstyle in the evening before bed. Your children will wake up without knots in their hair!

To finish :

Remember, the most important thing is to instill a love for your child's hair. With this routine, your child will love and care for their hair throughout their life.
