Hi Brooke,

I use a little olive oil. Leave it on for half an hour then brush head with soft brush. I did it everyday for 3 weeks and now only once a week.

Hi Brooke

I used a very small amount of babyoil, rubbed softy into head. Did the trick nicely, but Jade doesn't have much hair, if your Girl does, I wouldn't try baby oil.

I tried olive oil but that didn't work for the craddle cap. I would rub my son head in baby oil, leave it for the night and in the morning give it a good brush with a soft hairbrush. Didn't take long at all to get rid of it

she has a fair amount of hair,
I'll try the baby oil thing - leave in in all night eh? and then brush the following day.
thanks all.

I made a paste of bi carb soda and luke warm water and put it all over DD2's head, let it dry and then rubbed/wiped it off with a wet, warm face washer before her bath. I would kind of rub it gently with her towel while I was drying her hair and then once her hair was dry I just gave it a good brush with a soft hairbrush.

I only had to do it about 3 times, not every day, about once every three or four days before it was all cleared up.

I also found the baby oil to be the only thing that worked, it really soften's it well making it easier to brush away from the scalp.
I always left it on overnight too.
May you find a solution that works for you! :D
