I noticed my daughter moving her head side to side the past few days, when I put her in the swing. I didn't know why, but today she has flakes in her hair....so I'm thinking that's why. I washed her hair with Johnson's Shampoo, and I put Johnson's lotion on it. Could this be why she's getting flakes??....What can I do differently??

Shampoo dries out the scalp

@amaperalta03, yes I'm aware of that....but she's only 2 months

It's called cradle cap. Pour a bit of baby oil on her scalp and comb out the dry skin. The shampoo doesn't help with it so I wouldn't use it as often

The lotion could be drying her hair out 🤔 try coconut oil instead.

@amaperalta03, I only wash her hair once a week on Sundays, for that reason. I just wet a wash cloth with warm water and rubbed it through her hair, then I added the baby oil....it worked alot better!....With the lotion I always ended up with her hair being hard.

@margie_boop, I think it is the lotion, I just tried baby oil....and it was a whole lot better.

@amaperalta03, @margie_boop What do you guys think about Vaseline??.....

That's too thick. You can get coconut oil from the market. It's a moisturizer.

@margie_boop, I use coconut oil myself, I thought of Vaseline because winter is coming and the front of her head is thin

@margie_boop, I have organic refined coconut oil, is that ok??
Marjorie·

Yes, that coconut oil is good. I wouldn't use a lot. Vaseline might be drying to the hair.

@margie_boop, Alot of coconut oil or Vaseline??
Marjorie·

Of the coconut oil because you don't want the hair to become super greasy.

Just use a little every night
