  • soft and detangled hair
  • pleasant lasting scent

Worth knowing

  • weighs down curly hair
  • causes dryness and frizz

Safety check — clear

We cross-checked this product and its manufacturer against CPSC recall notices, NHTSA child-seat recalls, FDA recalls and the AAP's safe-sleep criteria on August 31, 2026, and found no active recall or safe-sleep concern. That is a check of the public recall record, not a test of the product.

We looked for independent reviews and didn't find any

We searched the review sites and video channels we normally draw on, and found listings and product descriptions rather than anyone's actual experience. That's usually a sign this is a commodity — the ratings above are real, and beyond them there isn't much to weigh up. Buy the cheap one.

Not sure you need this at all?

We take no commission on anything here, so we can say what most lists won't: a good deal of standard baby gear is skippable, borrowable, or actively discouraged by current safety guidance.
