When did you stop using baby shampoo on your kids?
Re: B/KOTB: Shampoo
I'm still using baby shampoo on both of mine. I have no idea when I'll stop. They're both doing fine on it, and I still have 2 big bottles of it, so I'm sticking with it for now.
ETA: I didn't think of this at first, but I'll also take the stinging eyes into consideration. It's probably best that before I switch, they can wash their own hair and control the suds so they don't drip down into their eyes.
I still have baby shampoo for both girls in their bathroom since Ally uses it and it's easier to use it on Emmy too.
But in the shower, I have a no-tear shampoo (sauve or something like that) it's strawberry scent and when Emmy takes a shower with me sometimes, I use it on her. That's her big girls shampoo.
I think I made the switch with Micaela when she was... 10. LOL Might have been 9. It was just easier once Kaitlyn came along for them to have the same stuff. Somewhere between 8-9, Micaela's hair got so thick that the baby/kid stuff just wasn't cutting it anymore and she asked to have her own shampoo and conditioner.
Kaitlyn and Sam share the same kid 2-in-1 stuff.
Kid shampoo is still no-tears stuff.
E's hair gets so tangled that I was using tons of spray-in detangler with the baby shampoo. I switched to Suave kids 2 in 1 a couple months ago (Fairy Berry scent - gag, but she picked it), and it does work really well and the conditioner works much better than just detangler.
I use it on DS too because I'm far to lazy/cheap to have more than one kind of shampoo sitting around for them. Poor guy smells like fake strawberries.

I want to know why all kids shampoo smells awful. We were looking for something with conditioner for C since he gets tangles so easily. I think I've smelled them all- blech.
In the end we stuck with baby shampoo and use our conditioner.
