16 Month Old with Dry Scalp

I have come to find that my son has very sensitive and dry skin this winter. His back had already broken out with tons of dry patches, which with ritual lotion application, it has gotten better. But now I see that his scalp is really dry also. I see that they DONT make conditioner for children so Im curious, how do i make it better? Wash his head less? apply adult conditioner? My son gets a bath every night. I was considering washing his head less but he loves to lie back and submerg his head in the tub. Any ideas? Thanks
