cradle cap

You could puit a spot of olive oil on his head and let it soak for a hour then try brushing it backwards. worked well for me.
 
Well, Roobs had a large patch on her head. Looked almost gingery in colour. So on Friday night, after her bath, I smothered it in moisturiser (I used Doublebase but i'm sure something like aqueus cream would be the same). I covered her head with a little hat and put her to bed as usual.

Anyway, Saturday morning, I got her up, took a flannel with top to toe and warm water, and wiped all the cream off. I couldn't believe it :shock: EVERY SINGLE bit of cradle cap was gone :shock: I thought I might have to treat it a few times, but no! :shock: Brilliant! Give it a go :D
 
Garnier Hand cocoon was quite effective, but also sweet almond oil rubbed into the scalp with a soft baby brush works well at keeping it at bay :)

My LO had this for a few weeks when she was younger. I used olive oil and regular hair brushing.

:dance: Excellent! Give it another go. It might take a couple of shots to get through the layers. Nothing harmful in the treatment, so nothing to lose (except cradle cap) woo hoo :D
 
I massaged a tiny bit of olive oil into Dans yesterday, it took it off completely :D
