My Daughter Don't like Wash Head,i Don't Know Why? What Should I Do?

This is very normal. What I think most parents do is give the child a washcloth to cover their face. My son still doesn't like hair washes, but this gives him a sense of being in control of the process.

Can you get some cute baby or young child swim goggles and let her wear them in the tub when you wash her hair and head? r maybe a very cute wash cloth that has an animal face or something at a bath store. I would guess she doesnt like the soapy water near her face, many young children don't like their faces touched I see each day. I teach preschoolers and they really dislike when you wipe their faces with a wet-wipe or tissue if its dirty. She will out grow this Mom. Hope this helps.

Lots of children just don't like water poured over their heads. You can try to have her lay back in the tub. Also make sure the soap and water stay out of her eyes by pouring carefully. Otherwise, you just need to keep doing it, use a comforting and soothing voice to explain how her hair has to get clean and just do it. Eventually it won't bother her so much.

This didn't work for our daughter, but she did let us do other things like brush her teeth when we used her doll. You can use a current doll or get one just for the bath and call her the washing hair doll or something. Our daughter is really excited to see the baby doll do the things she does, so this might work! I also recommend some other distraction and then just pour in short spurts and use the toy or other distraction when you want to rinse her hair. She'll get used to it eventually. We're still working on it!

My daughter hated this, too. We didn't wash her hair every day (lots of ponytails). What she hated was having water poured over her face. She also didn't like to have her face washed, so I did it very gently and tried to do things to distract her, like getting her to sing a song.

When we washed her hair, I took extra effort to keep the water out of her face. She would lay down in the water enough to get her hair wet, then I'd wash it, and try to make it fun by twisting it into funny shapes while it was bubbly with the shampoo, and then had her lay back down in the water (with her face above the water) to get most of the shampoo out. Then, I would give her a folded up washcloth to hold over her eyes, and I would put one hand over her forehead like a visor, while quickly rinsing the parts of her hair that were still soapy. It helped.

She grew out of this some time during elementary school.

Just had a great Idea, Get one of those little plastic watering cans like what a little kid would use. See if she will, herself, poor the water on her head. She might also want to help you if you give her some soap and tell her to help wash her head.
There might have been sometime where she got water or soap in her eye and it hurt and so everytime you go to wash her head she knows that it's not a good thing.

All I can say is this: I was like this as a child. I don't know why, but I outgrew it at about age 4-5. Until then, my parents were just very, very gentle and loving, despite my screams...

My daughter almost 3 still has that problem... It helps a little if I use the shower head to wash out the shampoo, but she still is not thrilled. As far as face washing, I let her do it her self and then tell her she missed a spot and get wherever she did not.

She also has started taking showers rather than a bath all the time. She likes this even more because she can control how much water is going on her head.

Good Luck!

Wal-mart sells a bucket (in baby section) with rubber on one side, made specifically for washing kids hair. The rubber side fits around the head as you pour and stops the water from rolling on the face. I think it was $4.99.

As other people noted, it is most likely fear of getting water in her face. I didn't find the rubber sided bucket worked at all. Having her tip back worked until she would sit up, then the water would trickle into her face and make her freak out.

We've solved it by giving her a bath then wrapping her in a towel, then one of us holds her up over the sink while the other uses the sprayer to gently wash her hair, like at a hairdresser. It keeps the water out of her eyes during the process, and we can drape a towel over her head before she's upright.

I work, and we don't have time or energy to do it every night, but when we do it is not a struggle but a fun game.

It's quite possibly a developmental stage - one of my girls went through this where she seemed in an absolute panic whenever I rinsed her hair. I just tried to stay calm and rinse her hair at quickly as possible, eventually she outgrew the panic reaction and now having her hair washed doesn't bother her at all. You may want to try different ways of washing her head - since my daughter didn't want to put her head in the water, I'd use an empty yogurt container and scoop bath water and pour it on her head while she tilted her head back so the water wouldn't get in her eyes.

try this, I saw it in swim lessons of all places. Use an empty childrens' teapot to pour the water.. However, do it so that the water falls off the back of her head (which will mean, her head is slightly tilted back) the kids at the pool, whom also did not like water poured on them, began to have fun once the teacher used the teapot. I thought it was a great idea.
Make it into a game.. Also, could be the shampoo she doesn't like?? has it ever gotten into her eyes and stung her... It might be best to lather up the soap on your hands (As oppose to her hair) this way, it doesn't appear that you are putting too much into her..
again, depending upon what she is afraid of, the water or shampoo..
good luck
