A lot of mixed curl types come out looking defined and soft after a washing routine, only to dry out and frizz as the day progresses. This organic baby curl care product will keep your kid’s curls defined and hydrated throughout the day without hardening or giving off the wet look most hair gels result in.

Caring for curly hair can be a big challenge for adults, let alone kids, toddlers and babies! Most people with curly hair go through many tries and fails before they finally find a product and a haircare regime that works for them. It takes patience, research and most likely, a fair dose of frustrations until they get there. Offering a fantastic collection of varying hair care products specifically designed for babies and toddlers, you are bound to find the right styling lotion, shampoo or conditioner that works for your child, regardless of their hair type. Curls Curly Q Milkshake is a light, creamy curl lotion will hydrate your angel's curls and create silky frizz-free tresses. Made from Certified Organic Aloe Leaf Juice and pure coconut, this delectable delight is perfect for curls that prefer light curl lotions over heavy creams. DIRECTIONS: Curls’ Itsy Bitsy Spirals Organic Baby Curl Care is a favourite amongst parents and children. Not only can you rewrite the Itsy Bitsy Spider song to sing together on hair wash and moisturizing days, your kid will still be singing once you get down to the feared combing part of it all.

The dressing gown tie method has been doing the rounds all over TikTok, and essentially involves you wrapping your hair around the tie, sleeping with it in and waking up to natural, bouncy curls. This brand has tapped into the trend by creating a slightly less DIY version with this silk rod. Our reviewer was dubious at first, but very pleasantly surprised with the results.

On top of that, your child simply won’t have the patience to sit through detangling and styling sessions when the product you are using is not at all facilitating the haircare regime and instead is causing more tears. No matter how hard you try to convince them that it is meant to be a feel-good-experience for the hair, they will not see it that way. This Ring Around the Curlies leave-in cream is a real game-changer for curly-haired kiddos and the parents tending to them. This product is moisturizing and nourishing yet very light – it won’t leave any residue and you can rest assured it won’t weigh your baby’s curls down. Our reviewer’s first attempt to put these in was not a success, as the rod method is a little bit awkward and time-consuming. But a few Youtube explainer videos later and we were away. Simply take around 1in long sections of lightly damp hair, hook on to the rod and pull through the curlformer. The whole process took around 45 minutes, and we used all of the 40 curlformers, so this method is definitely not for somebody in a rush. Our reviewer has used them again since and has found that, with practice, the process is a little less time-consuming. Featuring powerful natural ingredients such as aloe vera milk, arnica and lavender extract, this styling lotion will help you define your kiddo’s curls without having to turn to strong chemicals. Simply apply to cleansed and/or conditioned hair while still wet and scrunch it in.

Curls Curly Q Milkshake Light Curl Styling Lotion

We scoured the internet, and TikTok (of course), for the best “no heat” curling methods. Many of the products featured on this list stated that they are “sleep in” – meaning easy-breezy bedtime application with the promise of bouncy curls come morning. We put this theory to the test by trialling how comfortable the curlers were to sleep in. After all, a good hair day is not worth a sleepless night… This super moisturizing conditioner comes in an 8oz bottle featuring a colourful design your kiddo is going to associate with weekly one-on-one parent-time that will result in their hair feeling silkier and healthier than ever. Parents don’t usually have the luxury to go through various trial runs before settling on the best curly hair products for kids. Children are much more sensitive to hair care and beauty products, especially when they are being switched on a regular basis, as it won’t give their hair and skin the time to adapt to new formulas.
