Question

Newborns often have sparse and slightly yellow hair. What color is normal for a child’s hair?

Answer

A child’s hair color is related to genetic factors, and different children have different body constitutions, which can result in varying hair colors. If a child has yellow hair, it may be due to a deficiency in trace elements. It is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for a trace element check and supplement as needed based on the results, which will help alleviate the symptoms. Moreover, encourage your child to participate in sports activities to strengthen their bodies. Avoid excessive consumption of snacks, fast food, and sugary drinks. Focus on eating more vegetables, fruits, lean meat, and seafood to enhance nutrition. Reduce the intake of fried foods and grilled items and increase the consumption of porridge. Parents should use flexible methods to guide their children rather than allowing them to develop as they wish.
