A natural scalp oil is packed with the goodness of oat extract which forms a silky barrier on the skin to trap hydration and help stop moisture loss. Coconut and calendula oils add soothing nourishment.
The scalp requires a different approach to the rest of your child’s skin, which is why this scalp oil was developed with this combination of oat extract, coconut, and calendula oils. Each of these ingredients are proven to soften, soothe and moisturise your baby’s scalp. They also work together to reduce flaking and stop that frustrating cradle cap.
What is Cradle cap? - Cradle cap is a skin condition that most commonly affects babies under three months. It is a form of dermatitis which causes the oil glands in the skin to become inflamed. This inflammation causes the thick, yellow crusts. It stops after the baby is about three months old because the oil glands become inactive until puberty. If your baby has signs of cradle cap after three months, it could be eczema, and you should seek a healthcare professional's diagnosis and treatment.

How to treat Cradle Cap - It will usually go away by itself, but many parents choose to treat cradle cap because it doesn’t look or feel nice on a baby’s scalp. Here are some steps to help improve cradle cap:
Massage oil into the scalp at night; the itchy baby co. natural scalp oil has oat extract and coconut. These two natural ingredients have soothing properties which aid in preventing flakiness on the scalp skin.
The next morning, make a mixture of the itchy baby co. natural bath soak by mixing two spoonful of oatmeal bath soak powder with lukewarm water (enough for baby baths) and use this to cleanse the scalp. Then gently use a soft-bristled toothbrush to lift the flakes and crusts.
Continue this process until the scalp is clear and start this process again if the cradle cap reappears. If your baby’s cradle cap still isn’t improving, you should see your healthcare professional.
