I was always hesitant to put oil in baby's hair, because she has a decent amount, so it would take some serious washing to get it out, and she is not a fan of bath time in general, and especially the hair washing part, so I try to make that as quick as possible.

beersandweirs I'm not sure if your LO is losing hair bc of cradle cap (babies do lose hair in general, it seems to be worst ime bw 4-8. They can end up with a different color/texture than what they were born with by a year or so). I had a friend who's babe had bad cradle cap and she actually used a tiny bit of head and shoulders (per her ped) and was just extra careful. It seemed to hhelp. I'm also a big proponent of using the rectangular hospital brush and washing baby's hair with a circular motion. That was a hospital tip the nurse gave me when I had DS and it helped a ton.
