Baby hair washing

Ok I cant figure this out with out p!ssing off my LO. Now that she is sitting up how do I wash her hair with out getting soap and water all in her face? Ive tried holding a dry wash cloth against her forehead to catch the drips but she just gets more mad. Shes still in her primo tub, should I just lay her in the baby side so she leans back to hair wash? What do I do when she gets too big? I feel like I should know this...but it eludes me.

  • O bathes in the big tub. I hold my hand out flat over his forehead and dump a cup of water. Then I lather him up and repeat to rinse. I will sometimes lay him down and dump the water if he's being squirmy though.

  • They sell these bath visors made of foam for babies.  I'm trying to find a link for you?  I don't use it, but it could work for you.  I just pour water on his head and he doesn't care.  He just keeps playing.
