Just any recommendations?

Regular kids shampoo leaves her with an itchy flaky scalp.

Thanks!

I have eczema and usually just use conditioner to wash my hair. To get rid of product buildup, sometimes I use this shampoo though www.nakedbodycare.co.uk/bounce-curl-defining-shampoo. The ingredients don't make my eczema as bad as others. They have non-curly versions of it which I imagine are similarly okay. It's on offer a lot of the time in Boots too Smile.

Have you tried the Faith in Nature range? I don't think they have a specific one for children, but they are gentle and natural.

My boys use The shower gel/ bubble bath with no ill effects and bubble bath used to be the thing that really affected me as a child.

Burts Bees have a baby range called Baby Bee, I use their shampoo and body wash on my son who has eczema. Then either Baby Bee or Aveeno moisturiser.

My dd doesn't have eczema but did suffer a dry flaky scalp. I started to use the baby bee range but as she has long curly hair she needed a conditioner. I have started using a range called childs farm as they have shampoo, conditioner and body wash its brilliant and her scalp has cleared right up. childs farm
