California Baby Kids Hair Gel — Overtired & Cranky Medium-Hold, 82 g | 100% Plant-Based, Hypoallergenic

California Baby Overtired & Cranky Hair Gel is a 100% plant-based, hypoallergenic medium-hold styling gel formulated for infants and children to tame flyaways, define styles, and leave hair soft with a light essential-oil scent.

This gentle kids' hair gel blends plant-derived ingredients and light essential oils to style without stiffness or sticky residue. Created for sensitive scalps and allergy-conscious families, it avoids common drying agents and synthetic fragrances while offering enough hold for braids, slicked looks, and everyday manageability. Made and blended in California Baby’s Los Angeles facility, the formula is allergy-tested and free of many major allergens.

How does this gel style hair without feeling crunchy?

The gel delivers a medium hold that defines and controls hair while preserving natural movement. Its plant-based thickeners and conditioning agents smooth strands rather than harden them, so hair stays flexible and touchable after application.

• Medium hold suitable for braids, parting, and flyaway control
• Non-sticky finish—no crunchy or brittle texture
• Light conditioning ingredients help maintain softness

Is this safe for sensitive or allergy-prone children?

Yes — the formula is hypoallergenic and tested to reduce the risk of allergic reactions. It’s specifically made without common problematic ingredients and is free of gluten, dairy, soy, sesame, peanuts, tree nuts (except coconut), and other cross-contaminants.

• Allergy-tested and formulated for sensitive skin
• Free from PEGs, glycols, drying alcohols, and synthetic fragrances
• Manufactured in California Baby’s FDA-registered facility

What does it smell like and what ingredients provide the scent?

The gel carries a mild, uplifting aroma from Roman chamomile and sweet tangerine essential oils rather than synthetic perfumes. The fragrance level is kept low to avoid overwhelming sensitive noses while adding a fresh, pleasant finish to styled hair.

• Natural essential-oil blend for a delicate scent
• No artificial fragrances or heavy perfumes
• Designed to leave a subtle, fresh scent on hair

How should I use this gel for best results?

Apply a small amount to dry or damp hair and distribute evenly through roots and ends to control flyaways or set a style. Use more for thicker or curlier hair and less for fine hair; it works well for quick touch-ups, braiding, or shaping baby cowlicks.

• Rub a pea-sized amount between palms, then smooth through hair
• Apply sparingly for fine hair, more generously for thick or curly hair
• Works on dry or slightly damp hair; ideal for braids and taming fringe

Who is this for: Families looking for a plant-based, mild hair styling option for infants and young children who need gentle control without harsh chemicals. It’s suited to caregivers seeking hypoallergenic, allergy-tested personal care products that style hair while keeping texture soft and adding a subtle, natural scent.
