Top 5 Shampoos for Kids

Kids have the same issues with their hair as adults do. They get split ends, have frizzy days and need to get out tangles. Thankfully there is more than one type of children’s shampoo out there. Some have detanglers to get out those tough and painful knots, some have tear free formulas so they do not hurt kid’s eyes, and some have gentle fragrances for kids with skin allergies. Here are the top five shampoo brands for kids:

cute kid
Johnson’s Baby Shampoo – This shampoo is the standard when it comes to washing babies and young children’s hair. It is very gentle on all skin and hair types. It is also gentle on eyes and will not hurt children in any way. However it does not offer much in the way of detangling or conditioning, so it is usually not the best choice for children with long or curly hair.
L’Oreal Kids – This is the gold standard of children’s shampoo. With great scents and a powerful combination of shampoo and conditioner, this is usually the best choice. It can be a little expensive, but it does have special shampoos just for after swimming that removes chlorine from hair. A great idea for kids that are hard on their hair or have hair that is very difficult to manage.


Suave Kids – This affordable alternative to L’Oreal Kids is almost as good. It too has great scents and includes a 2 in 1 conditioner to help with tangles. This brand also creates its bottles out of recycled material and uses a high percentage of all natural ingredients so it is more biodegradable. Ideal for families that are concerned about the environment.

  1. Aveeno Baby – Made with natural wheat, oat and Vitamin E, this shampoo gently conditions hair to get out tangles without irritating sensitive skin. With a fresh, light fragrance, this shampoo has also been allergy tested and is gentle on children’s eyes. Oatmeal is also known to sooth irritated or dry skin, so this shampoo is great for children with itchy scalps.
Burt’s Bees Baby Bee –This shampoo and body wash for children is made of aloe and oat flour for even the most sensitive of skin. Fragrance free and hypo-allergenic, this is a great shampoo for even the most sensitive of children. Not only is it tear-free but it is also sulfate, phthalate, petrochemical and paraben-free. Clinically proven to be safe to use on children every day, you can’t get much gentler than this shampoo and body wash combo.

Hopefully I have given you some idea about the benefits of each of these popular children’s shampoo choices. There are many more shampoos out there for kids, but these five are at the very top. No matter if you have a child that needs lots of clean-up, one that has sensitive kin, or one that needs a great detangler, one of these children’s shampoos is bound to do the trick and leave your child with soft, manageable hair.

    I've always loved Loreal Kids Strawberry Shampoo. It's great for kids, and it smells awesome. If it gets in eyes, it doesn't hurt.

Home remedies for sleeplessness

The day dawns beautifully for those who have had a night of good sleep. But the same day drags on for those who have spent a disturbing, sleepless night. Sleep is a biological necessity even as eating and drinking are. Sufficient sleep renders a person normally sociable, lively and high-spirited. It’s a nature’s way of rejuvenating the person for the next day. Realize all this, and make sleep a physiological habit. The consequences of long time sleep deprivation can be very grave. Lack of sleep takes its toll on the skin and hair. It causes acne-breakouts and makes one look aged and haggard beyond years. Experts opine that during sleep as our metabolic rate falls, blood goes to those areas which need the most repairing. This also steps up the production of collagen and keratin, which aid the regeneration of skin cells and help resist premature ageing. So for a younger looking and a problem free skin you need to have a good quality of sleep every night.

Dark circles around your eyes. How unsightly they look and even your best dress and layers of make-up sometimes does not quite succeed in concealing them! Blame it on your genes or your lifestyle, but, you cannot deny the fact that these are a blot on your beauty . And they become more prominent as you age. Let’s just debunk some of the myths as well as unearth some of the facts about the causes of these ‘ panda eyes ’.   Dark circles under eyes usually are temporary and not a medical concern. You may be surprised to learn that fatigue usually isn't the cause of dark circles. Instead, the most common cause is nasal congestion. When your nose is congested, veins that usually drain from your eyes into your nose become widened (dilated) and darker.
