After a period of time after the baby is born, the mother will choose to cut the baby's hair. The hair that the baby has just been born with is called fetal hair because it is carried out from the mother's body. So are there also parents who choose not to cut their babies' hair? Can babies not have their hair cut?
We all know that it is difficult to care for babies when they are very young. It is okay to keep the fetal hair intact, but excessive fetal hair can easily lead to eczema in babies and may cause infections. Moreover, excessive fetal hair makes it more difficult for babies to wash their hair, so it is best to cut their hair short for the sake of their health and cleanliness. Baby's hair grows very quickly, which is also related to their rapid growth.
So, keeping baby hair is not a problem, but it is necessary to pay attention to the child's head hygiene to prevent the accumulation of dirt, which can lead to illness. Moreover, if the hair grows too long, children will not be able to take care of it, and parents should consider whether it will bring burden to their children.
Generally speaking, newborn babies should not have their hair cut. They should wait for a period of time before cutting. After shaving their hair, the baby may not adapt in the first few days, especially if the head care for the baby is not timely. Due to the delicate skin and weak resistance of babies, hair clippers may cause damage to the head skin, leading to skin infections in babies. If bacteria invade the hair roots, they can damage the hair follicles, which can affect hair growth in the later stages and even lead to hair loss.
