Default which conditioner for kids

i dont know if this is the right board, because my question is about hair i thought this will be ok.

i would like to know which product i can use for a 3year old boy to disentangle his curly hair. he has really curly hair, cause we are a mixed family. (my hubby is half african and half swiss)

thank you all in advance

That's a tough call without seeing how curly the hair is. I worked with lots of kids in my first career and some required special hair care because they had some African lineage. We found the best thing was really intense moisterizing shampoos for kids with curly (not kinked which needs even more moisture) hair. A good moisterizing shampoo kept their hair from breaking off when it got dry or was styled in tight hair-do's.

I could recommend Aubrey's line of shampoos, they have one that is crazy moisterizing. It's called Honeysuckle Rose and it's so intense that I won't use conditioner with it. http://www.aubrey-organics.com/spec_...y_hair_cat.cfm

I hope that is helpful. I'm sure there are people on this board with more experience with unique hair care needs than me. Hopefully, they will chime in as well.

Maybe a spray detangler? My mother would always use one on my hair when she combed it to style it. I can't remember the exact brand and I don't know if you would have it over there, but it was just a basic spray-on product.

African hair is so different from Caucasian hair (I'm assuming you are white?). I know that it's a lot drier and doesn't need to be shampooed daily. My best friend is 1/2 AA and she only shampoos once every week or week and a half. Other days she does something called CO, which is conditioner only. She is a big fan of the website NaturallyCurly.com for hair care information!!
