Top 5 Shampoos for Kids

Kids have the same issues with their hair as adults do. They get split ends, have frizzy days and need to get out tangles. Thankfully there is more than one type of children’s shampoo out there. Some have detanglers to get out those tough and painful knots, some have tear free formulas so they do not hurt kid’s eyes, and some have gentle fragrances for kids with skin allergies. Here are the top five shampoo brands for kids:

cute kid
Johnson’s Baby Shampoo – This shampoo is the standard when it comes to washing babies and young children’s hair. It is very gentle on all skin and hair types. It is also gentle on eyes and will not hurt children in any way. However it does not offer much in the way of detangling or conditioning, so it is usually not the best choice for children with long or curly hair.
L’Oreal Kids – This is the gold standard of children’s shampoo. With great scents and a powerful combination of shampoo and conditioner, this is usually the best choice. It can be a little expensive, but it does have special shampoos just for after swimming that removes chlorine from hair. A great idea for kids that are hard on their hair or have hair that is very difficult to manage.


Suave Kids – This affordable alternative to L’Oreal Kids is almost as good. It too has great scents and includes a 2 in 1 conditioner to help with tangles. This brand also creates its bottles out of recycled material and uses a high percentage of all natural ingredients so it is more biodegradable. Ideal for families that are concerned about the environment.

  1. Aveeno Baby – Made with natural wheat, oat and Vitamin E, this shampoo gently conditions hair to get out tangles without irritating sensitive skin. With a fresh, light fragrance, this shampoo has also been allergy tested and is gentle on children’s eyes. Oatmeal is also known to sooth irritated or dry skin, so this shampoo is great for children with itchy scalps.
Burt’s Bees Baby Bee –This shampoo and body wash for children is made of aloe and oat flour for even the most sensitive of skin. Fragrance free and hypo-allergenic, this is a great shampoo for even the most sensitive of children. Not only is it tear-free but it is also sulfate, phthalate, petrochemical and paraben-free. Clinically proven to be safe to use on children every day, you can’t get much gentler than this shampoo and body wash combo.

Hopefully I have given you some idea about the benefits of each of these popular children’s shampoo choices. There are many more shampoos out there for kids, but these five are at the very top. No matter if you have a child that needs lots of clean-up, one that has sensitive kin, or one that needs a great detangler, one of these children’s shampoos is bound to do the trick and leave your child with soft, manageable hair.

  3. I've always loved Loreal Kids Strawberry Shampoo. It's great for kids, and it smells awesome. If it gets in eyes, it doesn't hurt.

Delayed periods or Irregular menstrual periods have become very common these days for a lot of women in their reproductive age and they suffer great agonies when their period does not come on time. A delay of 4-5 days may be fine but if it exceeds 8 days, then it's certainly a cause for concern. In this post, I'll be sharing highly effective Indian home remedies for your delayed periods . I'd been a long sufferer of irregular periods during my teenage to early twenties. I've tried most of the recipes here, along with Kapalabhati pranayama, yoga poses, mudras and other lifestyle habits.

Simple ways of acquiring a clear & blemish free skin

It is not necessary to go to expensive beauty parlours or buy expensive creams and lotions to acquire a blemish free & clear complexion. A few homemade remedies are provided below which will serve the purpose equally well. Hope this will benefit the readers. 1. Always wash your face with mild soap so that the pores breathe fresh air. For a clear and attractive skin mix besan, turmeric (haldi), lemon and milk together. Make a paste. Apply it on the face. Let it dry. Wash with clean water. Wipe your face with a soft towel and pat it dry.

The ache of acne (pimples)

Acne is often the bane of a pretty face. It is painful more emotionally than physically, for the scar that it leaves behind can last for a lifetime, adding to one’s miserable look & feeling. No doubt many expensive skin care clinics have mushroomed in ever nook & corner, offering to clear all the scars & blemishes on the face, but they are very expensive & charge exorbitant price for each sitting; not everyone can afford them. So why not try out this simple skin care regimen to minimize the damage caused by acne & as far as possible prevent its eruption.

Aspirin for acne-prone skin

Aspirin has been around for a long time and its health benefits are wide and varied. Aspirin , or acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains , as an antipyretic to reduce fever , and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients. There is growing evidence to suggest regular aspirin use may reduce cancer and dementia as well. Investigators from the Women's Health Study have reported important new findings demonstrating that aspirin reduces the risk of a first stroke in women. When given to someone immediately after a heart attack, aspirin decreases death by 25%.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
