A. hi dandruff is not common at this age. It is dry scalp or psoriasis. It is important to go for direct examination to know the cause. Apply coconut oil before bath followed by gentle cleansing with good baby shampoo.

A. Hi parent Yes , you do need to change the shampoo and don't over wash her hair . Don't wash it too frequently. Wash it with ayurvedic herbs .(avla aritha shikakaki) Don't. use anti dandruff shampoo . You may wash her hair with some curd. Take sunbath daily with her head and ears covered in the morning
