Her hair and body get soap every day, but I rarely use soap on her face. We use Avalon Organics Baby shampoo/body wash and follow each bath with Avalon Organics Baby lotion. So far, she hasn't had dry skin or shown any signs of skin irritation. We live in a very warm and humid climate, so that may be part of it too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-baby-hair#post-86587 Sun, 04 Mar 2012 13:07:21 +0000 chopsuey 86587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bathe our LO with water every day (no soap). She only has fuzz so I shampoo her hair once a week. So far she hasn't had any dryness or other issues.<br /> I don't know how old your LO is, but you may just wanna wash her hair with water daily and shampoo 1-2 times a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-baby-hair#post-86569 Sun, 04 Mar 2012 09:51:42 +0000 heffalump 86569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bath our girl every day but only use soap every other day. Maybe you could try doing something like that, or just use shampoo more often than the soap?</p> <p>I don't have any great advice because my LO barely has any hair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-baby-hair#post-86568 Sun, 04 Mar 2012 09:48:34 +0000 miranlee 86568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone else's baby have really greasy hair? My sweet girl has lots of hair and it gets greasy and stinky within a few hours of her bath. I only bathe her every 3-4 days so she's a lttle stinker by the time she gets her hair washed again. </p> <p>I don't want to increase her baths per week bc i feel like its not good for her skin and hair....a little grease never hurt anyone, right.? And, I don't see any cradle cap and i've read it may be a sign of that.<br /> Just wonedring if you may have a good recommendation for a shampoo or dry shampoo powder.....or maybe its a baby phase and will go away. </p>
