Baby curls are the softest thing on earth and also, somehow, already capable of tangling. Newborn hair needs very little, and that is the point: gentle cleansing, a bit of moisture, and nothing that pulls. This is the small kit we use for our baby’s first coils. As always, check with your pediatrician about anything going on baby’s skin or scalp.
Dr. Brown’s Soft and Safe Baby Brush + Comb
The bristles are so soft they feel like a makeup brush. We use it to gently smooth after bath time, more for the cuddle than the style. The comb side is for the days when a curl has decided to knot itself.
SheaMoisture Baby Wash & Shampoo + Curls & Coils Conditioner
A gentle wash that does head to toe, and a conditioner made with textured hair in mind. We do not wash hair every bath; a couple of times a week is plenty, and the conditioner makes finger-detangling easy.
Earth Mama Calendula Baby Oil
A drop or two warmed between your palms and smoothed over damp curls. Simple ingredients, light scent, and it doubles as massage oil for the bedtime routine. A little goes a very long way.
BeautifyBeauties Continuous Spray Bottle
A fine, continuous mist of plain water to refresh curls between washes. The mist is so soft our baby barely notices. Same bottle I use for my own wash days, so it earns its spot twice.
Pro Goleem Satin Crib Sheets
A fitted satin sheet means less friction on the back of baby’s head, where curls rub most. Make sure it fits your crib mattress snugly, and keep the crib bare otherwise — no loose bonnets, pillows or blankets for sleep.
The honest version: baby hair does what baby hair wants, and the little bald spot on the back will come and go. Keep it gentle, keep it moisturised, and enjoy the curls. They are part of who your baby is, right from the start.
