Impetigo?

Eczema or sebbhoreic dermatitis.
My bet's on the second.
She needs to see a gp if it doesn't settle down.

She definitely doesn’t have headlice?

This is how my DDs hairline looked when she did - she was allergic to the bites

No defo no headlice. Looks like the dermatitis mentioned above. Thanks all

Looks like dermatitis or foliculitis
I would see gp. She might need an antibiotic cream

Nizoral shampoo may help, but she might also need a betnovate scalp lotion.

Thanks for all the advice. Someone recommended body shops ginger shampoo and it cleared up within a few days!
