Johnsons Baby Shampoo Gentle No More Tears for Delicate Hair & Scalp 500ml
Very little about this bottle has changed in decades, and that is the recommendation. Johnson's Baby Shampoo is mild enough for a newborn's scalp and gentle enough around the eyes that bath time does not end in tears, which is the whole promise behind the No More Tears formula.
On fine baby hair it cleans without weighing anything down and rinses out fast. Plenty of adults with sensitive scalps use it too, and it turns up in a lot of kids' curly routines as the wash before conditioner, simply because it is predictable.
500ml is the family size, which is the one to buy if bath time happens most nights. It is a mild everyday cleanse rather than a moisturising one, so on textured or curly hair follow it with a conditioner or a leave-in, and detangle while that is still in rather than afterwards.

Application tips
Wet the hair with a cupped hand rather than a shower head, which keeps water off the face and the fuss down.
A small blob covers a whole head of fine baby hair. Lather with the flat of your fingers, avoid scrubbing at the soft spot on a newborn, and rinse by tipping the head back. Older children can do the whole thing themselves.
Results
Hair comes out clean and soft without the tangles a stronger shampoo leaves in fine hair. It rinses away quickly, so bath time is shorter.
Because it does not sting, a splash near the eyes does not end the wash in tears. Older children with straight or wavy hair can use it every day, though textured hair will want a conditioner behind it.
