So What Happened?

First, I want to thank all of you for your suggestions. So, here's what I did: when I gave him a bath I tried the idea of conditioner. I used V05 cream rinse and it got a lot of it out and help loosen much of the remaining glitter. Then I brushed his hair with a baby brush, which helped some. After that I went with the scotch tape and it has totally helped! Of course, there is still some glitter there, I will just keep doing the scotch tape trick.

Hi V., Time and normal shampoos
some people like that look and pay for it.

it's cute even if its a mess for you. I wonder if a big sister or brother had something to do with that?...

Have you tried baby powder? It works super well for sand from the beach, etc. Maybe it will work for glitter, too!

If you have an eyelash/brow brush (like for mascara, but dry), you can use that to flick the glitter off. I was a makeup artist for Mac, and we used a lot of glitter. Works like a charm!

Maybe someone else has suggested this (I hate not being able to see the responses) but I would try baby powder. I know it works great for taking sand off at the beach. It absorbs all the moisture and sand just brushes off painlessly. So I'm guessing it would do the same for glitter.

I'm laughing out loud only because I deal with this on a regular basis! Glitter in the hair, glitter on the face, glitter all over! My child loves playing with glitter when she is at the daycare center. It scares me because I'm afraid she's going to get some in her eyes! The thing that works best for me has already been suggested -- use tape. Brushing the hair with a bristle brush works to get out large quantities, then I use tape. Make sure the child's eyes are closed, or brush from front to back. Good luck!

Rolling up scotch or masking tape (kind of like a lint roller) works well. I chuckled picturing this-thanks.=)
