Why does my friends kid hair smell so bad?

She is 6 years old & her hair smells like pee all the time. We’ve tried washing it & scrubbing with the best shampoos & baby shampoos & the second her hair dries it smells horrible again. She’s been to the doctor & they didn’t find anything wrong. It smells like urine & like when something wet has been left out & dried for too long. What could be causing it?

Answer #1

bacteria, diet, things she sleeps on…

Answer #2

Does she have cradle cap? Next time your with your friend look at the girls scalp..cradle cap will be yellowish in color and its scaly looking. It does have a bad smell to it too. You can remove it by massaging the head with baby oil and using a comb.

Answer #3

Hmmm this is hard… Does she have dandruff? That’s the only thing I can think of that a doctor could miss. If she had any scalp disease the doctor would have picked up on it. Your friend could take her to a trichologist or hairdresser to properly assess the problem.
