Question

Why doesn’t my baby have any hair after a few months of birth? Is this normal?

Answer

The amount of hair a baby has at birth is not related to the future amount of hair. The density, color, and texture of hair are significantly influenced by hereditary factors across generations, and there are differences between individuals. To promote the growth of a baby’s hair, you can often comb the baby’s hair using a wooden comb and give them more haircuts when they are younger. As the baby grows, the hair usually becomes denser. If you are concerned that your baby’s sparse hair might be caused by some kind of disease, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further examination.
