[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 328754, member: 1233"] Take some olive oil and get it warm. Not hot, but not cold. gently apply it to the scalp while her hair is damp (but not freshly washed). Gently work it into the scalp. If her hair is long don't worry about getting it all oil covered. You want the scalp oil covered. Then let it sit for 5 minutes, rinse, shampoo, rinse and repeat shampoo if needed. If at all possible do NOT wash her hair daily. Wiz used to get a head full of what looked like cradle cap but was eczema. I finally got some of the volumizing shampoo that has dimethicone in it (used the beauty supply store version of the stuff). I would wash his hair, rinse, lather again and let it sit for 10 minutes. then I would put conditioner on his head (same brand) and let it sit for 10 minutes. The products in the shampoo cleared it up in less than a month. I had done all sorts of prescription and home remedy things and this is the only one that worked. For the angry scalp after teh chemical treatment, you might consider applying cortisone cream to her scalp. Part the hair, put it on the scalp that you see, make a new part, etc... until the head is treated. I am sorry it has irritated her skin so much. [/QUOTE]
