Nioxin shampoo works well. It is way better than the danderuff shampoo my doctor recommended. Plus, my son has a ton of hair now. It is think also.

Wow there seem to be so many different remedies :). I think I will start with the ones I have in the house ( olive oil ) and go from there. Coconut oil sounds nice and would make her smell yummy too :). Though I could pass on a nutrogena bar to my 14 ydd who it seems is being attacked by acne all of a sudden. Ohhh those hormones!
I was thinking of trying to make my own natural soap, but have been told its quite difficult.
My 6 year old son has something that looks a lot like psoriasis on his leg. It comes in winter and goes in the summer. Last year one doctor said it was ring worm! It doesnt seem so bad this year - last year there were patches all over his arms, other leg and face. I'm wondering if natural soap would make any difference?

If it is truly ringworm use tea tree oil. Kills it right away

Is tea tree oil known to kill fungi? I'm asking because I don't know. I see it recommended ALL the time in one of my pet groups, but several people have warned against its use because of potential side effects (which may be only for cats).

Ringworm isn't an actual worm, just for general info - it's a fungus, a lot like athlete's foot. We always used lotramin, which is sold as a cream in a tube at drugstores & discount stores, but for some reason they only ever advertise it for use on athlete's foot fungus.

Although I'm 3days late with my greeting I still want to wish all Mom's a very Happy Women's Day. I know some of you may say everyday is women's day but we are giving a day to be recognised for the challenges we go through everyday and we should embrace it and feel happy.

Women's Day was celebrated on Monday 8th March, 2010
