So my 3yo dd looks like Vivien Westwood ...

[PeatBog]

circa 1977

left unattended for 10 minutes while I changed dd3

large pot of Vaseline within reach

of course she puts it in her hair

so far I've washed it 8 times and now we're all bored

any tips for removal??

swarfega

washing up liquid.

It soaks up grease. Leave it in for a bit before rinsing, then apply conditioner.

why do I imagine swarfega is for something like radiation exposure?

will try washing-up liquid - tomorrow now I think

swarfega much gentler on skin than washing up liquid. Swarfega was designed for skin, washing up liquid was designed for washing uo!

On the plus side, her hair will be lovely and soft when you DO get it out

aah, swarfega like wot my grandad used to have in his workshop! If the washing up liquid doesn't work I'll send dh out for some. He won't mind shopping for manly stuff like that.
