What type of oil can I use for my baby's scalp?

You can use olive oil, almond oil, or mineral oil on your baby's scalp to help with cradle cap. Massage the oil into the scalp, let it sit for a few hours, then use a soft toothbrush to gently remove the flakes. Wash your baby's hair with a gentle, tear-free baby shampoo afterward to remove the oily residue. So, almond oil is a great choice for treating your baby's cradle cap.
