Now that Emmy is almost one I thought I'd attempt to finally get rid of her cradle cap, or as her Uncle Marc puts it "the poop on her head", once and for all. . So, I used some of that cradle cap shampoo. First of all the stuff smells horrible, after 2 days I can still smell it on my hands. Secondly, despite the fact it notes"non-greasy" the stuff was as thick as glue and like oil on her hair. I washed it 3 times but could not get it out. We thought it was funny to mold it into a mohawk until we realized it was not just wet but disgustingly greasy. There was nothing we could do to fix it, she looked like an old man with a bad comb over. I took the poor kid to daycare the next day and prepped her on the way there to not let any of the kids make fun of her. As soon as I got there I let her teachers know what I had done so they didn't think I was testing out product on my child. I gave it a good srub again tonight, using regular shampoo of course :)
Dylan still has some cradle 'crap' every once and a while I will use a fine comb and work it out if it gets bad. Elijah's finally went away when we could use nizoral shampoo on him. That stuff worked wonders.
