She gets so upset, gasps for air (even though I don't get water in her face!), then she stands up after water is on her head like she's going to get out of the bath. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028280 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 22:42:17 +0000 luckypenny 1028280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She looooathes hair washing. I just try and get it over with as fast as possible :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028241 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 21:36:16 +0000 808love 1028241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a two cup measuring cup full of clean water ready and I tell her to look up while I rinse down the back. Then she learned to rinse by looking up. She hated when she would look down and it would run in her eyes. So I told her there might be an itsy bitsy spider up on the ceiling and can she help me look for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028234 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 21:32:57 +0000 T-Mom 1028234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD hates it but things got much better when she was able to hold a small towel over her face during the rinse. I think she was two. DS doesn't like it it tolerates it much better than his sister. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028159 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 20:37:16 +0000 yin 1028159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO still hates having his hair washed. He will cry right before we have to rinse because he hates the possibility of getting water in his eyes. Unfortunately we're still battling this so I have no good advice. He loves bath time minus the hair washing though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028151 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 20:27:19 +0000 Rubies 1028151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: She gets dirty EVERY DAY! When she comes home from daycare her hair is matted from sweat...Often there's sand in it...On Friday there was glue in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028136 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 20:13:48 +0000 chopsuey 1028136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does she get super sweaty or dirty?<br /> We rarely wash M's hair. We just wash with water unless she gets something in it.<br /> P used to just pour water over her head and eventually she got over hating it. HA :P<br /> I'm so helpful, huh? Sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddler-hate-having-hisher-hair-washed#post-1028131 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 20:09:52 +0000 Rubies 1028131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD haaaates having her hair washed. She gets so upset, yells at me, whines, etc. but when it's all done, she loves the rest of her bath.</p> <p>How do I make hair-washing better? </p>
