It’s summertime! And Lily finally has enough hair for pig tails! The only problem with this, is sunburns. Up until recently I thought she would either have to wear a hat or have greasy sunscreeny hair. Or no pig tails. Her mother and I found a product from Baby Blanket at the store. (They sell a scalp sunscreen that is 45+.) But I, personally, strongly dislike it. It must have been made for bald babies. The pump is pointless because it comes out heavy anyway. And it is extremely greasy. But after some experimenting I found that, the sunscreen with the longest name, Banana Boat® UltraMist® Sport Performance™ Clear Spray Sunscreen was the best I could find. While it slightly resembles hairspray, it’s clear and non-greasy. It leaves the hair looking normal and protects those sweet potatoes heads. Now Lily is free to have all kinds of “princess hair” through out the summer.
*After posting this I realized that younger children may still need "baby sunscreen". Here is another option for sensitive skin. Coppertone WaterbBabies Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 and remember, doctors don't recommend sunscreen or sun for babies under the age of 6 months! :)
