A. 1. How to Remove Candle Cap: If you're referring to the lid or cap of a candle, it usually just needs to be twisted or pulled off. However, if it's stuck, here are some tips: Twist gently: Most candle caps are designed to be twisted off. Turn it counterclockwise. Use a rubber grip: If the cap is too tight, use a rubber jar opener or a piece of rubber (like a rubber glove) to help get a better grip. Warm water: If the lid is stubborn, you can briefly run warm water over the cap to loosen it before trying again. Avoid force: Try not to force the cap open as it may break. If needed, use a gentle tool, such as a spoon, to pry the lid open carefully. 2. Is it OK to Wash Baby's Head Daily?: For babies, it's generally not necessary to wash their head every day, but it can be done depending on your child's skin and hair type. Here are some points to consider: Newborn to 1-year-old: You can wash their head 2-3 times a week with a mild baby shampoo. Washing daily can be too harsh on their sensitive skin and may cause dryness. Older babies (1+ year): If your baby has thicker hair or sweats more, you may choose to wash their head more often. Just use a gentle, baby-safe shampoo and ensure you moisturize their scalp if necessary. Cradle Cap: If your baby has cradle cap (a condition where a scaly, yellowish crust forms on the scalp), gentle washing along with massaging the scalp with a soft brush can help. In some cases, your pediatrician may recommend a medicated shampoo. Always ensure you're using baby-safe products and consult your pediatrician if you have concerns about your baby's scalp or skin health.
