Can you use this to treat dandruff/itchyness on a 9 month old babies scalp?

I'm unsure. It is used as a moisturizer and can be used to treat dry scalp. However, current research on allergies in young children suggest that kids are more likely to become allergic to a substance when first introduced via the skin (topically) instead of via mouth/gastrointestinal tract. Check out studies of Israeli vs British Jewish children who develop peanut allergies. They found the kids who were rubbed down with lotions with peanut oils (British) were much more likely than the Israeli kids who ate peanut puffs at a young age. At nine months, the immune system is still maturing and is a very sensitive time. I might give my child olive oil first in foods then use it on the skin after first having it in foods - especially if you have been breast feeding and eat foods with olive oil yourself. Check with your pediatricians.

Yes, I use it on my 16 month old and it works very well. It doesn't irritate and is gentle on the skin

yes! of course. I even use it on my face. It works fantastic. I heard people mix with shampoo or water to rinse your scalp. I recommend it to mix with water if you have issue on your whole scalp. But if you have one spot to treat on you scalp, you may use as is. It is not too strong to burn skin.

My daughter is 5. She has very frizzy, thin hair that doesn't grow. After using this, her hair is starting to grow and looks healthier. I think it reduces frizz but I am only dealing with a blonde, 5 year olds hair;)

I do not think you should use this for itchy scalp or dandruff because the smell is not very nice. You may try coconut oil. it might help.

No. She might want to try an anti dandruff shampoo. The strongest you can purchase OTC is 1%. Her de can get her 2% and depending not on ins coverage it can be far cheaper than buying OTC. Also for dry skin, argon oil works wonders!

I don't know. I use it for itchy scalp, in conjunction with one or another liquid anti-itch medicine. It works fine for that.

I have quite sensitive skin, have been using Paul Mitchell Tea Tree daily for the past six or seven years and have had no problems at all! I have also not had any dandruff problems either!!! A great shampoo, and I also suggest you using the Conditioner on your daughter as well! Fred

Says child friendly on the bottle, so I would think so. If you're still worried use cetaphil cream #1 dermatologist recommended brand for sensetive skin and gentle enough to use on babies.

Absolutely. I have been able to eliminate itchy scalp without drying out my hair. It is also VERY successful in treating pimples/infections on scalps and other body parts.

Hi Lisa, i personally didńt like this product. I found it to be full of chemicals and with a fake smell. I would recommend 100% pure, organic Argan Oil. A little gies a long way and it is great for your and your babýs hair and scalp. My wife uses it every day on both our kids hair and skin, especially during the winter. She likes the Zakia's Morocco oil. Good luck and best regards.

I don't find this very effective with scalp but their eczema lotion works for me. It makes the dry and red patches on my face bearable when I had flare ups from cortisol rebound and so far I have been off from cortisol for over 2 months and have my eczema under control. I recommend patience and get off from cortisol, it is not a long term solution.

I never had itchy scalp before using the product, so I don't know if it would help. Check out aveda.com for more info on the product.

It might help but something I know will work is dudley's scalp conditioner. it is good and smells wonderful. I love it.

I am using it for both dandruff and hair loss. Not too bad in fighting dandruff, nothing has worked on the hair loss including this.

My sister's newborn had very VERY flaky dry skin. I gave her the lotion and recommended that she try applying the lotion on a small area on the baby's underarm, as an allergy test. After several days of re-application to the under arm, there were no ill affects. She began using this lotion on all extremities of the infant and the dry skin cleared within just 2 days! **Use caution with infant and general skin use by testing a small area prior to applying to large areas of a baby's sensitive skin. And always check with your child's doctor prior to applying any new creams**
