Question

Accepted Answer

My son started getting it it. I used coconut oil at the first sign and haven't had a problem since. I put coconut oil in his hair and rub it in in the morning and after baths. I also don't wash his hair every day only every other day or every 2 days if it's still clean enough which it usually is. Before I wash his hair I get some olive oil and rub it in, makes his hair very soft and good for scalp (I also do this to myself lol). 
The coconut oil has also taken away his flaky spots on his eyebrows and his baby acne . I love coconut oil lol

Answer

Stop using anything and just take a baby brush and massage it a few times daily. Don't pick at it, just let it go away naturally from regular massage.

Answer

Breast milk really works.pump and rub it into his scalp.

Answer

Also try coconut oil I've heard that helps

Answer

I'm a licensed  aesthetician and my best advice for cradle cap is to exfoliate your little ones head with a baby brush during bath time. It's normally caused by a build up of dead skin cells so that should help 😊

I work for a pediatrician and we always tell our parents to use head & shoulders :)

Answer

Coconut oil. Massage into babys scalp for about 1-2 minutes. Leave for another 2 minutes and then gently comb out of babys hair. And rinse. You will have to repeat the process a couple times depending on how bad the cradle cap is. It's worked wonders with my 3 kids!

Answer

Yeah my bub has cradle cap too. I was told by the midwife to do nothing, it'll clear up on it's own. I've also been told by friends to try the oil trick, breastmilk or baby moisturiser.

Answer

Not sure if you breast feed but breast milk on the babies skin is literally like magic lotion ... My OB told me as well some of my friends have used this trick :) also coconut oil is great too !
