    When many parents take care of their newborns, they will find that the newborn's head is very clean after birth. But when the child grows to 15 or 20 days, it will be found that the child's head will be prone to some dirt. The dirt on the child's scalp is generally due to the phenomenon of peeling on the child's scalp, and the child's face will also peel, and the phenomenon of peeling on the surface of the child's scalp cannot be removed by itself.

    Therefore, it grows directly on the child's scalp, and parents should use water to scrub it when removing the dirt on the scalp of the child.

    For many parents when taking care of newborns, they realize that the newborn is very clean when the newborn is just born. But when the child grows to 15 or 20 days, the child's scalp will be prone to some stubborn dirt, and even the child will feel very dirty. In fact, the dirt on the child's scalp is not a sign of dirtiness, but because when the child is molting, a layer of skin will also be peeled off the child's scalp.

    If the skin on the child's scalp does not fade in time, it will grow directly on the child's ** surface.

    When parents remove the dirt on their children's scalp, they must not directly pick the child's scalp with their hands, which will easily cause the child's ** injury. When removing dirt from your child's scalp, parents can consider applying a layer of emollient oil to their child's scalp first, and the emollient effect can be achieved by applying emollient oil. When you see all the dirt on your child's scalp, you can choose to wash your child with water, so that you can achieve the cleaning effect.

    When parents are instructed to take care of their newborns, if they see obvious dirt on the child's scalp, parents need to wash the child several times. If you give your child another application of emollient oil, it is not completely washed off later. Before bathing your child, soak the scalp with emollient oil for 5 to 10 minutes in advance, so that the dirt on the child's scalp can be removed more quickly.

    The simple and practical way is to use vegetable oil to clean, first heat and disinfect the vegetable oil, and then cool it before use, apply the cool vegetable oil to the dirty place on the head, do not wash off the vegetable oil immediately, it is best to wait for an hour or so, wait until the dirt becomes soft, in the removal, at this time the dirt does not fall off, first take a small comb and comb it gently, some will fall off, and then wash the hair with warm water or baby soap. It cannot be completely removed at one time, and it needs to be repeated many times.

    If the secretions are not removed in time, they will accumulate with the dirt on the scalp, and over time, a layer of gray-white thick scab will be formed, which is cradle cap. Here's how to remove it:

    1.Do not pick with your fingernails, it is easy to hurt the baby's delicate scalp, not only not clean, but also may hurt the child's fragile scalp, and in severe cases, it will even bleed and leave wounds.

    2.When washing your baby's hair, the water temperature is best controlled around 37 38. This is because the water is too cold and it is not easy to remove the "dandruff", and the water is too hot to cause the baby's ** burns, so when washing the baby's hair, the mother had better try the water temperature herself.

    3.After washing your hair, apply an appropriate amount of professional baby dandruff oil to accelerate the shedding of your baby's dandruff and repair and moisturize your baby's scalp.

    4.Rub it on the baby's scalp with vegetable oil (I like to use camellia oil), soften it for a few minutes, comb the scalp with a baby's special comb, and then wash the baby with water, so that after repeating it several times, the dandruff will be clean.

    All around us, just look closely, some newborns have clean heads, but some newborns have a lot of stains on their heads. The cause of baby dandruff is also related to incomplete cleaning. Because the baby is spoiled, many parents can't wash their child's head, let alone the door.

    For a long time, oil and dust solidify, adhere to the scalp, turn into dandruff, and are more difficult to remove. Actually, it's not like you can't touch the door at all. The action is soft, and the door can be washed, so it will not scab over when you wash your hair well.

    Babies have dandruff on their heads, that is, cradle cap, mostly because children are young, and parents rarely use shampoo and other cleaning products when washing their hair, resulting in children's hair is not completely clean and oil overflows. If parents have frequent dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis, babies are prone to dandruff. Bad lifestyle habits:

    We don't think new babies should be bathed and washed their hair. Over time, dandruff will accumulate. High-fat diet:

    "Dandul" is a product of the baby's metabolism, and if the diet of breastfeeding mothers and babies contains a lot of oil, it is easy to have the problem of "dandruff".

    Not every child has dandruff. Children with dandruff often have eczema, but parents don't need to be too neurotic. Because even if this dandruff is not painful or itchy, it will not harm the child's health.

    As the child's physique increases and the age of the child increases, it generally gradually disappears within about 4-6 months. If parents want to help their children get rid of the dandruff as soon as possible, the easiest and most convenient way is to wash it with vegetable oil. In order to ensure the cleanliness of vegetable oil, vegetable oil is generally heated and sterilized, cooled and set aside.

    When cleaning your baby's scalp cradle cap, apply cooled vegetable oil to the surface of the scalp cradle cap first, and do not rinse the oil in time. After a few hours, the cradle cap on the scalp will be "steamed" by vegetable oil to soften, and the cradle cap on the thin scalp will naturally fall off. Thick cradle cap on the scalp may require more vegetable oil to increase the "steaming" time.

    If the fluffy does not fall off, slowly and gently comb it with a small comb, and the cradle cap on the thick scalp will fall off. Then wash the grease on your head with baby soap and warm water.

    If the crust is thick, it may not be possible to remove it with a single immersion. The above can be repeated 2-3 times, or you can apply vegetable oil 1-2 times a day until the scab penetrates. When washing, pay attention to the gentle movements, do not use fingernails to pick or scrape with a comb, so as not to damage the scalp and cause infection.

    After washing the hair, apply an appropriate amount of professional baby dandruff oil to accelerate the baby's dandruff shedding, repair and moisturize the baby's scalp. Don't forget to pick with your fingernails. It is easy to damage the baby's soft scalp.

    Before washing your baby's hair, use a comb to fix it. It prevents the hair from getting tangled. When washing, please plug the baby's ears with cotton to avoid water entering the baby's ear canal.

    There is dandruff on the baby's head, that is, milk scab, most likely because the child is relatively young, and parents use less shampoo and other cleaning products when cleaning the child's head, resulting in the child's hair not being thoroughly cleaned, and the oil overflows. Not every child will have dandruff, and most children with dandruff will be accompanied by eczema, but parents do not need to be too nervous, because this kind of dandruff is not painful or itchy, and it will not cause harm to children's health. As the child's physique increases and the age of the child increases, it will gradually disappear when the child is about 4-6 months old.

    When the baby is born, there will be dandruff on the head, is it necessary to clean it up?

    Seborrheic dermatitis in children is related to the inflammatory response caused by the overgrowth of Malassezia in the child's sebaceous glands during maternal and development, and is a kind of generalized eczema. In terms of treatment, some thick scabs can be scaled by applying white petroleum jelly, mineral oil (silicone oil or liquid paraffin) or emulsifiable concentrate to the scalp, and if necessary, a vigil and then a soft brush or fine comb to remove the scales. The application of pure vegetable oil (such as tea oil or olive oil, etc.) should be avoided to avoid increasing the reproduction of local Malassezia and aggravating the damage.

    If the scalp is not broken, wash your hair with a soft baby shampoo (such as Johnson, Shuba, etc.) every day after the scab is removed.

    Time for hair slowly came to light and I slowly put it away. But Jenny looked itchy and often buttoned directly with her hands, half of which I cleaned up and half of which Jenny took. During this time, take your child to the doctor, and the doctor said that it is endemic dermatitis, which is mostly not itchy, a few people itch, and your child belongs to the minority of people who itch.

    It's okay, continue to wash with tea oil. If you are not at ease, I will prescribe you some Chinese medicine cleaner. So it took about a month with tea oil and Chinese medicine cleanser, and this hair stain finally got rid of it, but Jenny always scratched her head.

    I carefully examined Jenny's hair and found that she had tiny white dandruff in the places she often scratched. So I took him back to the ** department, and the doctor continued to prescribe Chinese medicine cleaners to me. The poor child couldn't sleep every day.

    The dirt on the head is actually the child's vernix. In the past, children were born without bathing or washing their hair, and after a long time, the fetal paper would become a thick scab if it was stained with dust. This kind of stuff is smeared with vegetable oil that we fry and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.

    In addition, if you do it slowly with a baby comb, you can get it again next time if it is not clean next time. Be soft, your hands soft, and be careful not to hurt your child's door. Recently, children are born bathing and bathing almost every day, which usually happens very rarely.

    At this point, I seem to have found the answer. I quickly ordered a jar of Medicated White Vaseline from a certain treasure, applied a coat to Jenny before each wash, and washed the lather twice. Vaseline is really oily, Jenny's hair is greasy every time you wash it.

    But I washed it like this for half a month, and I used Vaseline about once every two days. Jenny's dandruff is gone! After that, there are some recurrences, and when dandruff appears, I wash it with petroleum jelly.

    After using it three or four more times, the problem was finally solved.
