Definitely the fridababy flake fixer! Don’t use it everyday though as it does make babies head somewhat red(it goes down straight away). I’m currently using it for cradle cap and after 2 times it’s nearly gone! I have heard the Mustela foam shampoo for cradle cap is brilliant x

We used dentinox cradle cap shampoo and it worked perfectly for our little one! x

Looks like cradle cap yes, it looks very minor though. I personally left my little girls alone, it will go eventually without touching it. My little girl had it worse than this but not too bad so we left well alone and it just came away itself (minus a little brush over in the shower) and then her hair grew over it so. If it’s not bothering her, I don’t see the point in agitating it for aesthetics purposes, not sure babies care for that 😂 I’ve heard dipping a comb or brush into breast milk then using it on top can help if you can use that and want something a bit more natural

Gently rub coconut oil in it and leave overnight.

Frida cradle cap helps. When mine had cradle cap I put coconut oil on her scalp about 10minutes before her bath, then we used the Frida cradle cap system. It cleared it up after a couple of weeks.
Her hair thinned out quite a bit as the flakes came off, just a heads up. No one told me about that and it really worried me the first time.

I also heard that breast milk baths are good and oats but not sure if it works or not
