Some babies are born with a full head of it, others with barely a fuzz — and both need care. Between cradle cap, tangles, and dry patches, figuring out what’s normal takes time.
Let’s be real: baby hair has a mind of its own.
Here’s what actually worked for us — and what didn’t.
What Helped:
- Washing only twice a week with gentle baby shampoo.
- Brushing daily with a soft-bristle brush to prevent flakes.
- A drop of coconut or baby oil on dry spots.
- Pat-drying instead of rubbing.
What Didn’t:
- Using adult shampoo — too harsh.
- Over-washing — made the scalp drier.
- Tight hats right after bath — trapped moisture.
Our Lifesaver:
A silicone baby scalp brush — soft, easy to clean, and great for cradle cap.
If you’re wondering whether your baby’s hair will stay curly or fall out — it’s all part of the journey. Keep it clean, soft, and natural — the rest takes care of itself.
