I put coconut oil on my baby’s scalp because of some flaky cradle cap. I washed his hair afterward, but now it smells awful! SOS!🫠🫠🫠

Baby oil was the only thing that helped my baby’s cradle cap! Gently scrubbed with the special brush. Then washed out with shampoo.. after a few washes it was basically gone!

Both my sons had cradle cap. My first was fine a bit of coconut oil, comb it with a fine tooth comb in bath, and than wash with shampoo and a scrubbie, ans tha brush after bath.
My.second is aweful. Did the same thing but had to switch to eczema shampoo and hydrocortisone cream after

i swear i could have posted this myself 😂 this happened to me about a week ago. it's just bc it got wet. i keep washing it daily now, and lightly scrubbing, but i only use the coconut oil once a week. the smell will go away i promise!
