Many new mums are unsure about the best way to wash and brush their baby\u2019s hair. Below are some top tips to keep your baby\u2019s hair clean and tangle free!<\/strong><\/p>\n We don\u2019t recommend you wash your baby\u2019s hair every day. Particularly with newborns, there\u2019s just no need. Aim for a quick, light shampoo when you bathe your baby, which doesn\u2019t need to be more often than a couple times a week because over washing can strip away the natural oils of the scalp and leave hair dry, brittle, and frizzy. Always use a mild, tearless, baby shampoo. If your baby has a problem with cradle cap or sweating, which is quite common in newborns, you might want to wash every other day, in this case your doctor can advise you.<\/p>\n When washing, be gentle when you massage the baby shampoo into your baby\u2019s scalp. A too-brisk scalp massage can stress hair follicles and speed up hair loss or breakage.<\/p>\n After washing pat hair dry gently with a soft towel.<\/p>\n Comb your baby\u2019s hair with a natural soft-bristle brush<\/strong><\/a> or a wide-toothed baby comb<\/strong><\/a> or brush that won\u2019t snag on tangles or pull your baby\u2019s hair.
