In the face of newborns, parents and friends must also want to give the baby the best care and care, then the daily cleaning and bathing work is not less, especially for shampoo, because the newborn baby hair is softer, and the head lacks skull protection, so in the shampoo process must pay special attention to ensure that the baby is comfortable and healthy to complete the shampoo work.
So, what is the right way to shampoo a newborn's hair? Let's take a look at it with Xiaobian!
Preparations
Baby shampoo used by newborns should not be mixed with ordinary adult shampoos, which are natural and do not contain chemicals, and a cotton towel is prepared to be set aside. The water temperature of the newborn shampoo must be strictly controlled, the baby's skin is delicate, and it is usually easier to feel the temperature stimulation of the outside world than adults, so the water temperature can be controlled at 35-40 ° C.
Hair washing posture
For newborns, parents need to maintain a stable posture, so that the baby's lower body lies flat between his legs, the upper body back is close to the arm, while supporting the baby's head, so as to steadily support the baby's neck, so as to avoid the baby's chaotic movement in the later stage, hurt her cervical vertebrae, but also can play a good role in fixing the child. And at this time, we can use the thumb and middle finger to close the baby's ears, or cover the baby's eyes and ears with a towel to prevent the ears from entering the water, thus causing various inflammatory problems.
Hair washing process
After the preparation is ready, parents and friends can use the other hand in a ring shape, the appropriate water temperature of the water gently infiltrated the baby's hair, for some newborns, there may be head scale on the head, at this time you can use a hot towel to cover, the head scale soaked, but do not vigorously scrub. Then apply shampoo and gently massage and wash the scalp, letting the turquoise mix and wash it off.
In the face of shampoo during the cleaning process, we must also pay attention not to let it flow down, you can first wash it with warm water, and then use a towel to gently wipe off the edge part, and scrub it with a wet towel.
Care after washing
After the newborn washes the hair, it is generally not suitable for drying with a hair dryer, even if the wind is small, the hair dryer will form a certain impact on the baby's head, so we choose a pure cotton dry towel to wipe the baby clean, but also can be appropriately matched with some manual massage, which can alleviate the baby's anxiety and the fatigue of the hair washing posture, but also can make the hair water evaporate quickly, dry faster, and promote blood circulation.
