Cradle Cap

I use coconut oil, everything comes off really quick. You basically apply a little to the affected area, leave for a bit and then remove in the bath or I just wipe it off with cotton balls soaked in preboiled water on days when we don't do a bath. You should then gently brush babies head in direction opposite to how the hair grows. It will be much better within a few days.

Coconut oil didn't work for my LO as he had quite a lot, so we bought the Frida cradle cap set which has worked wonders within 3 uses. Just have to be really gentle with it to ensure it doesn't irritate the scalp

@Justyna Perfect! I did not wanted to keep applying the cream when I have to wash it everytime as with the weather now it’s cold and I don’t want to be giving my baby bath everyday or everytime I apply the mustela cream. Thanks so much mama!

I use the Frida cradle cap brush and mustela shampoo and it gets rid of the cradle cap in one wash!

I used dentinox cradle cap, but was told I could use coconut oil that works very well x

When it’s not a bath day and I find a spot of cradle cap, we use a silicone brush (in circular motions) on a dry scalp to remove some flakes. Then I’ll put baby oil on his head and reuse the brush. We then dip the brush in warm water to clean it and repeat a few times. Then with a warm flannel I’ll massage his scalp and squeeze some water in his hair each time (just to help wash out the oil). With every bath I also use the silicone brush on his scalp always in circular motion. This works wonders. He doesn’t often need this done as he only gets it intermittently. But when he’s had a bad case of it I did all this and it was all gone after one session of this process.

The baby frida comb is something we swear by. Has worked on both our children

@Olivia oh wow that’s amazing to hear ; I tried it on baby girl today and it doesn’t seem like it worked lol maybe I need to keep using more? Thanks mama!!

@Lauren oh wow ! That’s amazing to hear, I will order that and hopefully it works on baby girl. Thanks mama!

@Molly thanks mama! I will try using the silicone brush but then I was told not to brush it out 🤔 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

@Mariam I wouldn’t full on tug it out but I do circular motions gently so it’s not pulling it harshly out just loosening. And that’s what the oil helps with too. The reason they recommend to not brush it out is that it can pull off skin not ready to be removed or pull out hair. So the oil loosens it so just the dry bits come out and not healthy skin

Always go natural darling coconut or olive oil will do the trick

We’ve been using the Child’s Farm coconut oil spray since 3/4 weeks and it cleared up within a few days and hasn’t returned since🤞🏻 my boy is 9 weeks today

Thanks so much mums!!! I appreciate you all for sharing xxx
