Tips for hair washing?

Any tips for getting through the hair washing process? LO just despises it.

We have tried letting her hold a wash cloth on her eyes so she doesn't feel overwhelmed with the water, we have tried having her help us pour the water on her head, we've tried showering (this used to work better when she didn't have much hair to wash. Now that it's longer, there's more rinsing and she doesn't like being under the spout that long).

We use Johnson's body wash for hair and body. I don't think it's a matter of stinging her eyes, she just doesn't like the water pouring over her.

Has anybody tried the visors that keep the water off their eyes? I try to get as little on her face as possible, but it's hard!

Right now we only wash her hair twice a week and it has been okay but as she gets more toddler-y and sweaty it's going to need more than that!
