    Only one thing for it. MOO GOO Scalp cream.

    Works a treat. My 2yo had it terribly bad, and a couple of applications of that, coupled with their shampoo, and it is gone. So did my bub, and his is gone too.

    For a tiny baby, I would just rinse hair in water, and then rub the cream in. Should do it.

    eta - I love the smell too... When babywearing it smells so nice!!!

    I read a thread about this a while ago, and took note, just incase I was ever there.

    Someone suggested, Bi-carb soda, and a couple of ladies gave it a go - with incredible results.
    They said to slightly wet it, rub it into the scalp and rinse.

    Give it a go!

    Moogoo scalp cream. A1, gold, the bomb, it rocks. It is a bit pricey and you only need a tiny bit. If you know anyone with some you could borrow it. My tub is full, i have only needed it twice. ETA- if i wasn't in another country i'd give you some of mine!

    Yep its all that ever worked here. That & when they are a little older I use a dab of anti dandruff shampoo & that works also.

    Equal parts sorbolene cream and glycerine worked well for us (read that in the panadol 0-5 booklet I was given in hospital). I also found the aromababy hair cleanse help keep it away once it cleared up.

    Fantastic. I have a few things I can try now other than just olive oil.

    Process of elimination. Will keep you posted on how I go

    Moogoo is amazing. It's nearly all gone my beautiful baby is no longer hiding. And smells better than oil!

    how good it it!!! I just love the smell too! Glad it did the trick for you! DS2 had it bad in his eyebrows too, and it worked clearing them up as well.
