Just thought i'd pass on a tip which worked for me, passed to me by a villager. Vaseline. Before bedtime smear pure vaseline over the baby's head, rubbing it right under the hair as ,uch as you can. The next day rince off in the bath (it's hard to rince out so you need to have a baby that likes baths) and comb out. The baby might have a greasy head for a few days as it is really hard to get the vaseline out, but it really does work.
I did mine for the first time three months ago, and have just done a small patch again.
