Your toddler's hair is too fine and delicate for hair conditioner, but once they turn two, or have enough hair to comb into a hairstyle, they can benefit from a kids conditioner. It's very important that you establish a natural hair care routine from a very young age because dry hair is prone to tangling and breakage.
Moisture is the key component for optimal hair growth and health and is an important part of natural hair care. Sometimes you need a specially designed kids' leave-in conditioner when the regular products like oil, cream and water don’t do the trick.
Conditioning their hair and scalp will also encourage new and healthy hair growth. It will also help in improving the look, feel and manageability of all kids’ hair, whether they have short, long, fine or coarse hair.
Whether your baby is born with a head full of hair or with no hair, conditioner is simply not required. Infant hair is very fragile and should be gently washed with only water to keep it clean. When your child turns two, you can start using mild shampoo and conditioner as a part of the hair care routine.
A conditioner will moisturise and soften the hair, leaving the hair smooth, shiny and manageable. While talking about how often, it totally depends on your kid’s hair because every hair is different. Normally, you should start deep conditioning anywhere from twice a month to once a week.
Determine your child’s hair type and find out what suit is best for your kid’s hair. If you notice that the hair tends to soak up moisture, then you might have to increase the number of deep conditioning treatments.
Benefits of using conditioner
Kids shampoo and conditioner are a great combination for every hair type. The job of kids' shampoo is to cleanse, while the job of kids' conditioner is to moisturise, nourish and protect the hair strands.
Cantu detangling spray is a specially designed conditioning product that detangles the hair and makes them softer. The long and short-term benefits of using kid’s conditioner are:
● Nourish your hair and scalp with essential nutrients
A kid’s conditioner is formulated with all the essential nutrients and proteins which are required for your kid's delicate hair and scalp. A good quality conditioner will help you get rid of curls and tangles if your kid’s hair is curly in texture.
● Detangles and add shine to the hair
A conditioner also helps in detangling and making your kid’s hair frizz-free and easily manageable. It also adds shine and bounce to the hair and makes them look healthy and beautiful.
We recommend using the Just For Me Curl Peace detangling treatment ideally suitable for kids' curls, coils and kinks. This product adds moisture and shine, detangles, prevents hair fall and breakage and protects the hair from damage.
● Keeps the hair clean and moisturised
The kid’s leave-in conditioner will moisturise the hair and keep them neat and clean. Wash your kid's hair with a specially designed kid’s shampoo and conditioner to keep their hair in a gentle and manageable condition. You can also use mild shampoo Aunt Jackie’s which is made up of all-natural ingredients and is free from chemicals.
● Well-groomed hair
A conditioner will provide well-groomed hair for your baby. Proper grooming is necessary for maintaining the proper health of the baby. Get beautiful and manageable hair for your kids by applying conditioner.
If you start noticing that your child is experiencing an excessive amount of hair breakage or their hair seems to be drier and tangled, then it might be an appropriate time to start using a moisturising detangler or deep condition your child's hair. Even if they are not experiencing these problems, it’s best to start deep conditioning so that they won’t face the problem in the future.
