Hi there

Does anyone have a good solution to clear up cradle cap, I have been using Dentinox shampoo on my dd for a few weeks now and its no better and she is getting fed up of me using it too!

Thanks

there was a thread on here last week I think re cradle cap.

My failsafe solution, olive oil and a thin comb.

brush hair reguarly and when washing soak scalp in baby oil first then wash really well else hair gets greasy , brushing works wonders HTH

yes, any oil really, leave half an hour for it to soften skin, comb out. wash hair!!

Some people have said leave overnight but i dont think you need to, and you'd need to change bed sheets!

Rub in olive oil in the morning and wash it out in the evening, works a treat also good on scaly eyebrows and as a gentle moisturiser.

I don't use any baby products just water and olive oil.
