Pros

  • Easy to use
  • Soft sponge and bristle brush are safe for newborns and sensitive skin
  • Comes with a convenient stand to keep everything clean and organised

Cons

  • Results vary depending on the severity of cradle-cap - some parents may still need prescription treatments.

The FlakeFixer is ideal for babies who show signs of cradle-cap, including:
• Dry or flaky scalp
• Yellow or white crusts
• Mild buildup of scales on the scalp or eyebrows

It’s best used during bath time. Simply apply a baby-safe shampoo or a natural oil to the scalp, use the sponge to gently lather, follow with the brush to massage and loosen flakes, then finish with the comb to lift them away.

If your baby’s scalp is cracked, red, or irritated - or if the cradle-cap isn’t improving - always consult your GP or health visitor before continuing at home.

What you get

The FlakeFixer includes four pieces to take you through every stage of cradle-cap removal:

Soft foam sponge – Perfect for gently lathering with baby shampoo or oil, helping to soften dry scales without irritation.

Gentle bristle brush – Loosens flakes and buildup while being soft enough for even newborn scalps.

Fine-tooth comb – Lifts and removes flakes with precision after they’ve been softened and loosened.

Storage stand – Keeps the tools clean, dry, and easy to store in between uses.

Everything is compact and easy to use one-handed, which is ideal during a squirmy bath time.
