How do I remove cradle cap on my 2.5 year old?

My daughter has always had trouble with cradle cap. we use gentle shampoos. How do I remove it, now that she is almost 3, and probably is going to fight me with it? it’s an orange color and covers most of the top of her scalp.Can this also prevent her hair growth???

Answer #1

I got a specific shampoo from the pharmacist. I’ve also heard of using baby oil. It does decrease naturally as the child gets older, fortunately, although that can take some time.

Answer #2

Baby oil works and put lotion on her head also…and when you give her a bath use a brush for her hair ..it worked on my grls.

Answer #3

USE JOHNSON AND JOHNSON BABY SHAMPOO AND J&J BABY OIL ON YOU’R BABYS SCALP NOT HAIR GET A BABY BRUSH AND GENTLY MASSAGE THE CRADDLE CAP AWAY (JUST A LITTLE EACH DAY) HOPE THIS WILL WORK FOR YOU LIKE IT DID FOR ME IT SHOULD GO AWAY AFTER A FEW DAYS .
