I also don't wash my kids hair with shampoo. Maybe every second month if they get dirt tipped in there or something. It's too traumatic for all involved!

I have heard of little caps that go around their heads and stop the shampoo from dripping.

If I need to detangle dds hair I use a bit of conditioner on a comb and just do the ends. She is happy with that.

I would love to get in there and scrub my kids scalps but they have never had any issues or nits so I just go with it knowing they will wash it themselves eventually!
