Scent is not a trivial thing when the person having their hair washed is five. A conditioner that smells of lemon and fruit rather than a salon buys you cooperation, and cooperation is most of wash day.

Underneath the fragrance this is a straightforward children's conditioner. The 8 oz bottle is built on a blend of fruit extracts and works where children's hair actually struggles: knots at the nape, dryness through the lengths, frizz on the crown. It leaves enough slip behind that the comb-through afterwards is quick. Use it after shampoo on wet hair, work it through the lengths, comb in sections, then rinse. It handles curly, coily and wavy textures as well as straight hair, so it works across a family with more than one hair type in it. If the hair is particularly dry, leave it on for a couple of minutes before you rinse.

Application tips

Wash the hair, then get the conditioner on before anyone climbs out of the bath. Two sections down the middle keeps it manageable for both of you.

Smear it from ear level down, work through with a wide-tooth comb while everything is slippery, and hold the section above the knot so the pulling never reaches the scalp. Rinse most of it away and leave a trace behind.

Results

Combing stops being the part of the evening everyone dreads. Hair comes out soft and loose, dries with less frizz standing up round the crown, and the citrus scent is mild enough not to sting eyes.

Fine hair is not weighed down by it. The next morning's brush is easier too, which is usually where the argument starts.
