A. hi baby is too young, don't comb hair frequently use baby hair brush instead of hair comb for dandruff /cradle cap, I advise to apply coconut oil at night time only then wash your child hair using gentle shampoo like Babyhug pro shampoo you may apply thin layer of petroleum jelly on scalps too

Q. My baby is 3 months old. She looses alot of her hair. Also, she has got black scales sort of coming out from her scalp. I have heard that this is normal among babies.

Please do let me know if this is normal. TIA
