    Hi Moms,

    My kid is 2.9 yr, I am using ordinary parachute coconut oil for his scalp he is fine with that. Yesterday we took him for haircut, they said his hair is very dry r using any gel/ almond oil?, I said he had head bath with J&J shampoo as he would be going to haircut today might be the reason.

    But I am worried is anything I should apply other than parachute, he has skin allergy so I am bit confused.

    We tried that too but he gets rashes when we apply J&J oil & J&J moisturizer. So I shifted to aveeno moist he is fine with that, is there any almond oil for toddler?. I am not aware about that, so I am worried to leave him with the parachute oil else some other I should change....

    hi mehana,

    r u using oil n shampoo on daily basis?
    johnsons shampoo makes d hair more dry.never apply dis directly.mix one part of shampoo with 4 0r 5 parts of water.u can apply this solution instantly.
    try to avoid regular use of shampoo.
