Toddlers: 24 Months+

Toddler hair question?

This may seem like a silly question but can you use adult hair care products on a toddler's hair or should you use something special? My DD has curly hair but it gets really frizzy in the summer, it is very humid here.  I want to try to tame it because it is always in her face but don't know what to use on her hair.  I don't want to damage it or use adult products if there is something special for toddlers.  If you use something specific for toddlers, what is it?  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!! TIA!

  • I sometimes use my products on DD's hair. I haven't noticed any issues. I have used my shampoo/conditioner and sometimes I put hair spray in it for gymnastics. Her hair is really fine and straight, but mine is curly. If she had curly hair like me, I would definitly use adult product.

  • DS has long hair and it gets very curly in the humidity too.  We were using California Baby detangler and that wasnt helping too much.  We just started using a natural conditioner and that is working great!

  • DD also has crazy curly hair that gets out of control pretty easily.... I have used a few time adult conditioner for curly hair.  I really don't think there is any harm to using it, I am just extra careful to not get any in her eyes.

  • I use African Price Dream Kids Olive Miracle shampoo and conditioner.  In the morning, I wet her hair with a spray bottles and put in Just for Me Curl Cream.  They are for kids, but not particularly for toddler.  I'm not sure if the shampoo and conditioner are tear-free, so I'm very careful with them.

  • I use baby shampoo 90% of the time and the rest I use my Dove products.  The dove products work soooo much better on her but I have to be ultra careful to not get it in her eyes.  It sure makes her hair perfect and smooth and shiny though!
  • we use jhonsons baby shampoo and conditioner, then i use a leave in spray by Aussie, if i really want her to look cute, for pictures or something i put a little hair spray in her hair for her. Like PP just watch the eyes! Even when washing them out the next bath time.
