Cradle cap. I use a toothbrush with coconut oil to rub it out and then wash with a washcloth and California baby shampoo. It takes a few times but it shouldn't come back.

Put baby oil on it and leave it on for a few minutes then wash baby's hair but scrub a little and it comes off.

Yeah that's cradle cap. I would use a baby tooth brush and baby oil or they make cradle cap lotion. I know cvs and rite aid sell it. My son had/has bad dry scalp and I put baby oil on his scalp once a week and leave it for 10 min and use baby tooth brush in circular motions for few min. I don't do it a lot because it irritates his head and it turns red.

Selsen blue shampoo is what my dr. Recommended. Worked great! It's expensive but worth it. Will get ride of it in a few days. You can get it in any shampoo isle.

Selsen blue once a week. That's what my pediatrician recommended. :)

My son has a bit of cradle cap too but it's hidden by his hair and its on his soft spot so I just leave it alone but have heard the coconut oil thing works.

I soaked her hair in coconut oil and used the tiny comb the gave us in the hospital. It looks almost like a flea comb. It took it right off and it hasn't come back.

Thanks for all the advice. Where do you find coconut oil? Is it with the lotions or in the food section? I've never bought it before

Put baby oil on it. Let it sit. And use a soft brush and brush it out. That should help.

I get my coconut oil from trader joes in the cooking section.
