Cradle cap!

Please can people share their best ways of getting rid of cradle cap without loosing lots of hair?! My 4 1/2 month old seems to be loosing loads of hair at the moment especially when I am trying to get her cradle cap out with the Frida baby flake fixer 😩

I've been putting breastmilk on my baby recently. Just a tiny bit and rubbing gently with my fingers and it seems to be helping

I just rub a bit of baby oil on his head once a day and it seems to keep it fairly in check. Not completely cleared but nearly noticeable

Coconut oil works great! Make sure it 100% virgin stuff tho. You can just buy it from Aldi etc x

Coconut oil

Coconut oil, denitox cradle shampoos, I use normal aveeno body wash n use silicone comb that looks like brush cleaner type, gentle scrub/massage on the head. Don’t worry about hair fall, new hair is coming hence that’s happening. Coconut oil any raw £3-£4 frm Aldi sorts will do, don’t need expensive branded.

Denitox + Cradle Cap Comb (twice a day) & then Kokoso Coconut Oil worked a treat, used for 2 days and all of its gone now

@Lola we have all 3 of these things just not used in that combination yet so I’m give it a go but doesn’t the coconut oil make their hair all greesy?

Coconut oil before a bath, then washing off in the bath and once out brushing in a circular motion with a soft brush. However, loosing hair is normal

I put breast milk in her baths & also directly onto her scalp
