Anyone know of any methods for removing waterproof sunscreen from hair?
My iii year old put an entire tube of waterproof SPF l sunscreen all over his hair, face and arms. His entire head was completely white and the tube was totally empty when I found him. I washed his hair with regular shampoo, and then a blazon of clarifying shampoo multiple times and then finally two lathers with Dawn dishwashing liquid. I tin can nevertheless feel it in his pilus! I’m not sure what to practise.
Does anyone have any tried and true methods for removing this stuff from hair? He has school tomorrow and he looks like a pass up from Sha Na Na!

reminds of the time my son cut his hair in the forepart, right down to the scalp. he had adequately long hair, nearly 2 in long all over. we had to take him for a g.i. fizz.

When my youngest son was about 12 he washed his hair in Avon’s Skin so Soft!!! Though dry it looked wet for a couple of weeks! I too tried it on my cats for fleas. I thinked information technology helped with the fleas but (memo to self) put a capfull in the wash h2o and practice non utilize as a rinse! Long haired cats look foreign for a calendar week or so if you use information technology equally a rinse. LOL

That is then funny! Vinegar will probably help get the rest out.

Oh I wish I’d seen him! The vinegar rinse suggested by others should work.

Sadly, I did not get a photo. I was on the phone with a church building fellow member and in then much shock I was even having trouble speaking! I did a vinegar rinse this morning and then another launder with Dawn. That seems to have helped. It feels like what is leftover is the zinc part of the sunscreen. I think in a solar day or then I’ll do some other vinegar launder and and so only a clarifying shampoo and it should be ok.
Thanks for everyone’s suggestions and stories. I definitely had a few chuckles.
