How will cradle cap (infant seborrheic dermatitis) affect my child’s hair?

Cradle cap will not prevent your baby’s hair from growing or cause baldness. Only in very rare cases will it cause temporary hair loss.

Seborrheic dermatitis is not limited to infants. Dandruff, flaky scales that build up on the scalps of individuals of teen age or older, is known as adult seborrheic dermatitis (ASD).
