Kraddle Kap vs. Cradle Cap — Let’s Clear Things Up!

Hey mama (and papa too)! Let’s have a little heart-to-heart about something that’s been causing a bit of confusion: Kraddle Kap vs. cradle cap.

We totally get it — the names sound alike, but trust us, they’re very different things! So let’s break it down, shall we?

What Is Cradle Cap?

Cradle cap is a common and harmless skin condition that affects many newborns and infants. It usually shows up as:

• Dry, flaky, or greasy patches on your baby’s scalp
• Yellowish or white scales that may stick to the skin
• Sometimes, a little redness

The medical term is infantile seborrheic dermatitis, but that’s a mouthful! Luckily, it’s not painful, contagious, or itchy for your little one, and it often clears up on its own with gentle care and some patience.

Important Note: If you’re ever unsure or it seems severe, always check in with your pediatrician!

So… What’s a Kraddle Kap?

Now that we’ve got the medical stuff out of the way — let’s talk about the cute stuff!

The Kraddle Kap is our signature satin-lined bonnet designed specifically for babies and toddlers. It’s part of our mission at Kraddle Kare to protect your little one’s delicate curls, coils, and waves while they nap, play, or snuggle up at night.

While the Kraddle Kap doesn’t treat cradle cap, it does offer amazing benefits for your baby’s hair and scalp health, such as:

• Reducing friction while your baby sleeps (bye-bye breakage!)
• Locking in moisture to help prevent dryness
• Protecting hairstyles and encouraging healthy hair growth
• Looking adorable while doing it!

So while our Kraddle Kap isn’t a treatment for cradle cap, it is a gentle, stylish, and effective way to support healthy hair care habits from the start.

The Bottom Line?

Cradle cap = a temporary skin condition.
Kraddle Kap = a beautiful bonnet made with love.

Both are part of your baby’s journey — one just needs a little TLC, and the other is here to give that TLC!

Thanks for trusting Kraddle Kare with your baby’s hair care needs. We’re honored to be part of your little one’s routine.

With love & curls,
The Kraddle Kare Team
