When you’re washing the coconut oil out have you tried using head and shoulders? Dentinox shampoo made my babies hair fall out 🙈

Try avenno shampoo and conditioner

These this brush u can use when u wash the hair, from Amazon x

I just lathered my daughter's he'd with baby oil, let it soak and lift it with a nitcomb, lightly scratch it off

Baby girl is only 5months old

I only tried Dentinox with gentle strokes using the Frida flake fixer comb, and it worked well for us. It took about a month, but I only started using it at around 9 mo I think.

@Natasha what brush please?

We used to recommend olive oil in the pharmacy I used to work out. Just gently massage it over to moisturise n it should soon disappear

You probably need to gently comb or brush it out Apply oil Wait ten minutes Comb scalp, but very gently, it should flake off but don't be rough Wash hair If you repeat daily, it'll gradually flake off til it's all gone. Be patient.

Breastmilk 💯

Use breastmilk! it works wonders.. so basically u moisturize it and wash it. Put breastmilk on head and do light massages and leave it in to soak for sometime, use light silicone brush. Don’t pick at it cus the babies skin is very soft. And repeat it as necessary. U can either shampoo it out immediately or wait for couple hours depending on the time

Just b patient with it cus it will take some time.

A mom on this app recommended Vaseline. I gave it a trial and it worked just fine

Baby oil is the best! It's gentle and moisturizing. Put a little on a cotton ball and rub in circular motions it may take a few days but it's gentle and affective. All the pediatricians I saw reccomended iI. I told them I was reccomended head and shoulders and they said that would be way to aggressive on a baby's head. It's cause by their skin getting used to being out here so it needs something gentle.
