When did your child...

Maybe, but sometimes no. With the birth of my third child I had a harder time helping my older kids with their night showers. They seemed to be doing and weren’t asking for help. But I would occasionally notice my 8 yr old daughter step out of the shower with a giant glob of conditioner on one side of her head (and way more than she should have been using for her entire head of hair). And my 6 yr old who has short hair wasn’t doing the best job either. I was running my fingers through his hair while we cuddled one night and noticed a patch of something...I’m still not sure what it was, it felt like build up or residue of something. Maybe shampoo not getting rinsed, maybe him not washing well and dirt/oil building up, I don’t know. We did some bath time remediation with both kids and it mostly fixed these issues but they still need a bit of guidance here and there at bath time.
