Suncreen for Hair/Scalp?

Does this exist? Or do you just use regular spray sunscreen on their head? DD's hair is white blonde and while I try to get a sun hat on her while we are outside, it doesn't always work out that way and is completely based on her cooperation. I've noticed she's a bit red from the spray park this weekend and figured I'd see what people use. Thanks!

Suncreen for Hair/Scalp?

How old is your DD?

At 16 months, I started being VERY strict about my DS wearing a hat at all times when he was outside. If he wouldn't wear it, we would go inside until he would cooperate. It definitely wasn't easy at first, but now at 3, he always makes sure he has a hat one. I also made sure that I wore a hat outside so that I was modeling the behavior.

If she is totally not on board with a hat, I would think spray sunscreen on her hair.

She's 2. 80% of the time she is on board and wears it with no problem. Her hair is just so light that even with it off for 15-20 minutes, she starts to get burned. I'm going to take your advice and be stricter about it!

This. No hat, no outside. Even at daycare, if she won't keep her hat on she has to sit on the picnic tables in the shade. I get pictures of her sitting at the table with the rest of her (hatless) class playing in the background. I still don't budge Chat Icon

Last summer, when he was 2, he knew a hat was required whenever we went outside. My mom actually made a comment that my DS' hair has never seen daylight. We are fair skinned with fair hair as well. I wish my parents were as strict as I am in terms of sun protection.
