Question

Should I shave my baby’s hair?

Answer

There was a traditional custom of shaving a baby’s “full moon head” in the past, which means that after the baby reaches one month old, their hair should be shaved off. The quality of a baby’s hair is related to two factors. One is the interference of generational inheritance; generally speaking, if the parents have good hair, the baby’s hair will also be good, and vice versa. Just like body growth, hair growth varies in timing and speed; many babies are born with thin, yellow hair. However, as the baby grows and develops, their hair gradually becomes darker and thicker. These changes are also related to the generational inheritance from the parents.
