Regardless of whether or not you’re well-versed in taking care of your own curls or coils, caring for a child’s curly hair can be a real challenge. The child may have a different hair texture, porosity, or density than what you’re used to. And, if you’re a parent or care-taker with straight hair, you may have never even considered the role of porosity or moisture in a hair care routine before–but just having the right products on hand can make a world of difference in the hair care experience for you and your little one. Here to save the day are countless curly hair care products formulated specifically with sensitive youngsters in-mind that can handle the tangled aftermath of even the wildest playtime. But, of course, in the sea of products and ingredients, it may be difficult to know what the best options are.
