Baby Boy
Posted on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 at 9:03 pm
I am adopting an african american baby boy, what do I do differently to care for his skin and hair?
I was a teacher and I am aware that there are differences in how caucasions care for their hair and skin than how african americans do. But I need help. What do I do to take good care of my baby boy’s hair and skin?
congrats on the baby! mine just turned 2! skin is the same as any baby. if its really hot out he doesnt need much of anything other than baby powder to keep him cool during the day, lotions can make babies sweat. and just put some baby oil into his bath to keep him moisturized. for his hair, while he is small you can shampoo with regular baby shampoo, and use their detangler if you must. once he gets older maybe 2, you can switch to something like Just for me(not the relaxer kits, the shampoo, conditioner, and hair moisturizer) you can get it at any walmart or sallys and is cheap and will help keep his hair tangle free, unless you want to cut it, then a good barber will give you tip on how to brush it each day.
