It could be I never got rid of it properly when he was little but his long hair always kinda blocked it. I see it more now that his hair is cut and I don’t know how to get rid of it without him getting bald patches. Any tips?

Head and shoulders shampoo.

You can also scrub it with a washcloth or a comb.

I was told at that age it is just dandruff. Use head and shoulders.

I rubbed coconut oil into those spots and it went away after a few applications.

Please don't go right to head and sho8or prescription shampoos for that sweet little boy.
Rub olive oil in his hair. Leave it for 10 minutes. Comb out and shower. Itvwill all come off easily.

Try the Forever Living shampoo. I purchased it on Amazon and found it really helped.

We used head and shoulders clinical strength anfter trying other things that never really helped for long and it got rid of it. He then continued to use the regular head and shoulders on and off whenever it would start coming back.

Anyone else’s kids called it cradle cr@p?
Such a funny memory!!

Op- you can comb it out, right after the bath. It will not create bald spots
