Why is a children's hair care routine essential?

From a very young age, children's hair deserves special attention. Their scalp is more sensitive, their hair fibers more fragile, and their needs are quite different from those of adults. A well-thought-out children's hair care routine helps maintain the health of their hair, prevents hair loss, tangles, and itching, and promotes softness, vitality, and growth. By establishing good habits and choosing suitable hair products, such as a gentle, silicone-free children's shampoo, parents encourage beautiful hair density from the earliest years.

It is to meet these specific needs that Madame la Présidente designed the Petit Président range. This hair care line, designed for children's scalps, offers a shampoo and conditioner without sulfates or harsh ingredients, enriched with natural active ingredients to strengthen the hair fiber and facilitate detangling.

How to create an effective hair care routine for children?

For an effective routine, we recommend choosing products specifically formulated for children's scalps. Apply a gentle shampoo, such as Petit Président shampoo, made with natural ingredients, step by step. It cleanses gently without drying out the scalp or damaging the hair fiber. Follow with a moisturizing conditioner to strengthen hair and make detangling easier, especially for curly or frizzy hair.

Detangling and styling should be done with a soft brush to minimize breakage. To dry your hair, use a soft, absorbent microfiber towel to reduce friction. Finally, opt for gentle accessories like the satin scrunchies offered by Madame la Présidente. These steps, incorporated into your hair care routine, protect the lengths and promote healthy hair.

Hair care routine for children aged 2 to 3: our tips

Between the ages of two and three, children's hair is still fragile and delicate, and their scalp is still maturing. This is a crucial period for establishing good habits while respecting the hair's natural sensitivity. At this age, it's important to choose gentle products with suitable ingredients and no harsh chemicals.

Forget adult hair care products: children have specific needs , both in terms of hydration and scalp protection. A simple routine, consisting of a gentle shampoo, a light treatment like conditioner, and non-irritating accessories like a microfiber towel and a satin scrunchie, is all you need to care for their hair.

Kids' Curly Hair Routine

Children's curls require special attention: they dry out quickly and can easily become brittle. To care for curly hair from a young age, opt for a gentle, sulfate -free shampoo, followed by a moisturizing conditioner that makes detangling easier without damaging the hair fiber.

Always let your curls air dry and avoid rubbing; use a microfiber towel instead. A suitable brush or a wide-tooth comb will help keep your curls well-defined without pulling on your scalp.

Kids' Curly Hair Routine

Curly hair is naturally dry and needs regular hydration, even from the age of two. A suitable routine is essential to prevent breakage: use a nourishing shampoo, followed by a detangling conditioner rich in moisturizing ingredients.

To retain moisture , gently towel-dry the hair and apply a light cream or hair milk to the ends. Gentle brushing with a soft brush also helps prevent tangles and teaches your child to love their hair.

Children's fine hair routine

Toddlers' fine hair is particularly delicate : it tends to tangle easily and can break at the slightest friction. To care for it, it's best to adopt a routine.

A gentle children's shampoo is sufficient for cleansing without irritating the scalp. If the hair is a bit long, add a light conditioner once a week to make detangling easier without weighing it down. When styling , avoid tight elastics and opt for satin scrunchies.

What products should be included in a child's hair care routine?

Children's shampoo: Choosing the right product

Shampoo for children's hair should be gentle, effective, and respectful of the sensitive scalps of toddlers. At this age, the skin barrier is still immature, making the skin more fragile. A shampoo without harsh sulfates or silicones is therefore important for gentle cleansing without irritation.

Madame la Présidente's Petit Président shampoo has been formulated to meet these requirements: its natural composition, light foam and dermatologically tested formula make it an ideal product for daily hair care.

Children's conditioner: Hydration and softness

Conditioner isn't always necessary for toddlers, but it can be useful as soon as their hair grows longer or thicker . It makes detangling easier, strengthens the hair fiber, and adds softness to dry or textured hair.

Petit Président conditioner, enriched with natural moisturizing ingredients, is designed to care for curly or frizzy hair without weighing it down. Used once or twice a week, it helps maintain soft, manageable hair while respecting the sensitivity of the scalp.

Satin hair scrunchies: Why choose this type of scrunchie?

When it comes to hair accessories, satin scrunchies are particularly recommended because they don't snag strands, prevent breakage , and reduce friction on the hair fiber . Unlike traditional elastics, they preserve the softness and vitality of the hair, while comfortably holding hairstyles in place. Incorporating this little accessory into children's hair care routine offers their hair a daily care ritual, while also preventing tears during brushing.
