Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Warning: this picture is disgusting. My son has pretty intense skin problems. Bad enough we see an allergist. When he got cradle cap the allergist said it was the worst she's ever seen. We used a medicated shampoo every day but it wasn't helping, so I got this brush in hopes that we could provide relief from the itchy dryness and bleeding. My son has a lot of hair so just rubbing the skin doesn't really help. We used the brush tonight and holy crap, yea it worked! We're going to have to do another round, but his scalp already looks soooo much better. Now his shampoo can actually reach the skin that needs it. The picture shows some of the scales we picked up with the comb after rubbing with the brush. We spent a good 15 minutes just combing out the dead skin and wiping off the brush then combing again. We probably wiped the comb like 30 times. Each time the comb was as loaded with flakes as shown in the picture. In other words, ALOT. So yes, this little device will do the job. Thoroughly. If your little one has some scabs from itching the brush will lift some of those and cause some more bleeding. It's really gentle, but it is meant to get stuff up, so scabs will be effected. But on our son only places that were already scabbed bled again, it didn't cause any extra bleeding. Again, our son has a lot of hair and this worked great. Our boy is almost a year. And while he didn't necessarily enjoy the process, he did tolerate it as long as he had his bath toys to distract him. I would recommend washing the shampoo out of their hair before you do the comb part. It's easier to see what you're doing.
