Interesting discussion...DD also has uneven hair, though it's not too noticeable yet (mostly because we can comb it over well!). The back and sides are thinner, and have what is a newer hair texture - less shiny, but slightly coarser, more straight hair. The top of her head still has baby hair (shiny, thinner) that is very long and in large curls and corkscrews. This hair is falling out slowly and steadily (we find tendrils everywhere), so I suspect that this will be changing soon as well.

We wash her hair twice a week with Johnsons & Johnson's Baby Shampoo, and while still wet, use J & J No More Tangles Leave-In Conditioner. Then we either leave it so, or massage in Miss Jessie's Baby Buttercreme if we're going out on the town. Either way, we can use a fine-toothed comb (that works better on DD than a wide-toothed comb) to gently work through any tangles. We tend to use the plastic brush that they gave us at the hospital when she was born; it works great for her hair.

We used to give DD a bath twice a week, but with her spitting up and dribbling, she was a right mess at the end of each day, despite any wipe-downs. We now bath her each evening (with Johnson's Bedtime Moisture Wash), and use Johnson's shea and cocoa butter cream (I swear, I own no shares of this company!) for her skin. We have never used soap on her face, and avoid it in her perineal area. It really moisturizes well, and we haven't had any problems with ashiness/drying (she's 5 months and biracial, black/white).
