Everyone knows maintaining and taking care of curly hair for babies isn’t easy. It requires constant care, patience, and a lot of knowledge to not damage the curl.

Today we aren’t just going to show you great baby curly hairstyles, but we’re also going to give you some tips and tricks on how to properly take care of their hair as best as possible.

How to Take Care of Your Toddler’s Curly Hair

Like we just previously said, taking care of curly hair, in general, is difficult, but taking care of your curly hair baby might seem a little bit stressing, since there’s too much information going around, so let’s summarize it.

First off, you need to identify their type of curl to understand how to best take care of it. There are at list six different types of curly hairs, and although they all have a similar hair care routine, there are special things you might have to do for different types of curls.

Once you’ve figured that out, is to buy hair products that are actually made for babies with curls. Buy special shampoo, hair conditioner, hair cream, coconut oil (trust us, this is a lifesaver) and different oils that will help keep the hair soft and with the definition.

Last, but not least, don’t put heat on your baby’s curly hair, not even when they grow. It’s important for you to understand that heat severely damages the natural shape of the curl and will break it, causing your baby to lose their natural form.

Instead of applying heat, focus on constant moisturizing and hydration every week, and making sure any hairstyle that you might try on your baby’s hair won’t compromise their natural curl.
