babies will shave their hair for the first time from birth to the full moon. People of the older generation often tell novice parents to shave their children frequently to ensure their thick hair. With thick black hair, it also greatly improves the baby's appearance. Many parents have a headache for their children’s hair loss. I tried many ways, but found that the child's hair was still sparse. Many mothers felt helpless about this.
What should I do when my child's hair is thin?
1. Combing more hair
Many mothers are prone to a misunderstanding that they feel that their baby's hair is scarce, so they dare not comb their baby too much. I am afraid that the process of combing the hair will lead to less and less hair, but this is often wrong. For children with sparse hair, they should comb their hair more. Because combing hair is good for promoting blood circulation on the scalp, it is good for promoting hair growth, so you should comb your child along the hair when combing.
2, adequate sleep
children have not fully developed and matured in all aspects of the brain when they were young, so good and adequate sleep has a good effect on the development of their cerebral cortex. This is also good for promoting baby's scalp development, so enough sleep can also help baby's hair grow out.
3, balanced nutrition
Many babies will have the habit of picky eating, as parents, they should correct their children’s bad habits in time. Balanced nutrition is beneficial to the growth and development of children. Many babies have a certain relationship between thinning hair and calcium deficiency. You may wish to give your children more foods with high calcium content. In addition, many fruits and vegetables contain high levels of vitamins and minerals, which are also helpful for baby's hair growth.
4. Get more sun.
Many parents worry that their children are easily tanned in the sun, so they always let their children stay at home or avoid sun exposure. In fact, proper sun exposure has many benefits for children. Sun exposure not only helps sterilization and disinfection, but also promotes the blood circulation of the scalp. It also promotes the absorption of calcium. Therefore, ensuring proper sunshine time every day is very helpful for the baby's growth and development.
Does my child have thin hair and need medical attention?
Many parents feel particularly worried about their children’s sparse hair. When children are born, their hair is scarce. But this will not affect the growth of the child's later hair. Generally speaking, the baby's hair will grow out slowly in the later stages of growth until about one year old. By the time the child is two years old, his hair is basically about to grow. Therefore, parents do not have to be too hasty. If the baby's hair is still very small after the age of two, then you can consider going to the hospital for an examination. If there is a problem, you can also be treated as soon as possible.
Children’s hair thinning is related to many factors, but generally speaking, it is normal in the early stage. Parents do not need to be too hasty and calm down. Every child’s growth and development are regular. If it exceeds the normal growth time, then parents can take their children to the hospital for examination.
