From the age of 3, children's hair often starts to tangle on its own and needs to be brushed more regularly. To keep it healthy, it is important to detangle it frequently, especially after shampooing. To help you with this task, TOOFRUIT has developed Kapidoux detangling spray, which is certified organic, eco-friendly and vegan, and designed for children over 3 years old.
The first detangling between 2 and 3 years of age
Starting to detangle your children's hair comes naturally once their strands are long enough to become tangled and form their first knots! Most of the time, this phenomenon is not observed until children are two or three years old, when their hair is generally more developed. Before this stage of life, their hair is often too fine and fragile to be brushed and detangled regularly.
However, the right time varies from child to child: some have very thick, prolific scalps, while others take longer to develop tangled hair. Several specialists recommend using products specifically designed for babies up to 4 years old, as the scalp of young children is thinner and more sensitive than that of adults. It produces less sebum and can therefore dry out more quickly, which is why it is important to clean it gently.
Methods and tips for detangling children's hair without causing pain
As their skin is much more sensitive, children need particularly gentle care. To begin with, we recommend detangling after shampooing, when the hair is still damp. You can then apply a product designed for young children, free from parabens, silicones and SLS, which is gentle on fragile scalps, starting at the ends and working gradually up to the roots. The simplest solution is to use a leave-in conditioner for light, long-lasting hydration.
To prevent this step from pulling your hair and causing pain, it is best to use a flexible brush that adapts to the curves of the scalp without pulling on the hair fibres. Hair washing should be done twice a week to avoid overstimulating the sebaceous glands, which could disrupt natural sebum production in the long term, especially during adolescence.
