So your kid decided to lather their hands with hand lotion or hand cream instead of using the hand soap at Grandma’s then proceeded to run their hands into their hair for fun? First, it’s going to be okay and it’s common for children to experiment with all sorts of things.
Here is what I did to get that greasy oily hair back to her natural healthy head of hair.
After you blot their hair out with a hand towel as best you can. Have them take a shower and wash their hair so that the contents doesn’t run down their eyes.
Next crack an egg and pour it in a plastic cup to take with you into the shower. Massage the egg white and yoke onto their hair. Then wash it out with the warm water. As you are washing it out you may see a white gummy substance that you can lift out of their hair.
Then lather their hair with a natural hand bar of soap which should get rid of the egg smell too. Wash it out with warm water and proceed to towel it dry.
After her blow dry, I would say that my daughter’s hair seemed much more healthier and beautiful. The grease gunk was certainly not present. There are some natural mom’s out there that may have tested other ingredients, but I was not in the mood to experiment with corn starch, peanut butter, etc. This worked for us and I was satisfied. Hope this post helps you out. Let me know in the comments if this work for you.
