Winter months I aim for just water play every second night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1935392 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 19:03:26 +0000 fairy 1935392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter's hair used to be like that too, but now she can go with it washed every other day - we tried the powder in desperate times for a quick fix, not sure what happened to make her hair stop being as greasy I think her hair just changed. I did find that it looked/felt better if I stuck with my Disney baby shampoo - when I would use my J&amp;J travel size stuff on trips, her hair would look extra greasy and she would get buildup on her scalp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1935389 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 18:56:24 +0000 sarac 1935389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I'd try washing it less. Maybe skipping the shampoo entirely. I don't shampoo my daughter's hair, and it has a lovely texture - might be the same for yours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1935268 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 16:46:06 +0000 lilyann 1935268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. tictactoe: I agree! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1935263 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 16:44:43 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1935263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: I believe in #2 - same for your skin. If we constantly wash away the oils, our skin and hair thinks it needs to produce more oils to compensate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1935260 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 16:42:25 +0000 mediagirl 1935260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: nope. I used to think that was the problem until I monitored her and ... nope. </p> <p>@lilyann: I don't really like baby powder so we don't have any in the house but I had seen that idea online, too.</p> <p>I read two totally conflicting things while researching it online.<br /> 1. Wash it more often if it's oily.<br /> 2. Wash it less often if it's oily.</p> <p>The internet is confusing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1934424 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 11:01:35 +0000 lilyann 1934424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you sprinkle some baby powder in her hair? My mom used to do that when I was little. I use dry shampoo now for this reason but not sure if you want to use that on your toddler? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1934321 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 10:23:42 +0000 Mamaof2 1934321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does she eat with her hands and then touch her hair? I can always tell when DD has done this -its so greasy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1933505 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 19:49:18 +0000 sorrycharlie 1933505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>O's hair used to get like that. I'm not really sure why. I switched shampoos and it hasn't been an issue. I also rinse it like, 15 times because I feel like I never get it all out (personal problem, LOL). </p> <p>I find some mornings if it looks gross, after brushing it a few times it looks clean again? Kinda strange, but. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/greasy-hair#post-1933502 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 19:47:08 +0000 mediagirl 1933502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My lo has the greasiest hair. I have no idea why. We wash it every or every other day and by the end of day 1, it's a greasefest. Anyone have experience with kids with greasy hair and any suggestions on how to keep it from getting so gross? </p>
