If you use a bath seat instead of a tub...
How on earth do you shampoo your kid's hair?
Logan was getting ansty being in the sling in the baby tub so I got him a tub seat and we tried it out tonight.
He LOVED it. He can splash and play and was having a great time.
But when it came time to rinse the shampoo I was at a total loss because he is sitting straight up and I can't pour water over his head to rinse it.
Suggestions are welcomed.

I basically drown my kid three times. I have found no easier way then just pouring a cup full on his head.

I use a huge cup and put my other hand above their forehead at the hairline and try to direct the water away from their face. It works. Some times it works better than other times but it works.

I do the same, I hurry up and push my hand over his head right after pouring. He use to let me use a wash cloth, now he knows its coming and fights.
I bought the thing at BRU, but it did not seem to help either.

They make these bath visor things. I don't know how well they work on babies though. I usually just rinse her hair and then wipe her eyes since all the water gets them.

Fill and pour!!!!!!!!!!!!! They get used to it and when it came to pool time, she put her head under the water with no issue! In the beginning we made a game of it, like look up up up here comes the rain, close your mouth, and here it comes.....

I use a cup and pour it right over her head. I cover her forehead with my hand but she actually thinks it's fun to have it done.
