Removing Sudocrem from child's hair - advice please

7 replies

DD (nearly 2 yrs) went wild with the Sudocrem yesterday and plastered herself and everything else in the stuff. Does anyone have any advice on how to remove it from a child's hair. I have now washed it three times in regular shampoo and there is still a waxy residue. Swarfega seems too drastic Grin. How about Fairy Liquid?

Cold tar shampoo. :)

Yy, fairy liquid. The detergent mixes the oil and water.

Put the shampoo/fairy liquid on dry hair then rinse off.

Make a paste with bicarb of soda and water and use as you would shampoo. Should help. May need to do several times though....
