How often do you wash your childs hair?

[Anonymous]

Every other day. I use a hair dryer so she doesn't have wet hair, she thinks it's fun

I'm not the OP, but thanks everyone. My 6 and 9 year olds wash theirs 3-4 times a week and the baby every other day. I had been wanting to decrease that because she doesn't like baths now that it has gotten cold. Now I won't feel bad about doing that.

Daily or every other day.

The power of (negative) peer pressure!

(OK, now, everyone fess up -- how often do you REALLY floss your toddler's teeth? Yeah, that's what I thought.)

I have never flossed my 18 month old's teeth. The mere thought makes me want to chew my arm off. Of course the huge spaces in between the teeth probably are not trapping too many foods at this point and he brushes at leat four times a day since he is OCD about it.

I also dread washing the hair so DH and I do it as a group effort every few days. Baby always gets his hair wet so I consider that clean enough... He isn't in daycare either so I do not need to worry about strange daycare workers kissing the top of his head and giving his herpes or ooogy germs.

Now I wonder what they do about baby hair washing "down there" in that country. Maybe apple juice/pomegrante nut aldy can chime in.

How do I know when it is dirty?

At least every other day or it gets too tangled to brush and after swim lessons

every other day, unless he got a sweaty workout in PE or its summer.

if it's all tangled, stinks, sticky, if it has food/dirt in it.
if it's not shinny...

it's easy
