What should I do if my child’s hair doesn’t grow long?

Mothers with children at home are often troubled by various problems in their children's growth. I know a mother whose child has had relatively sparse hair since birth. Now her child is over two years old and is a baby girl, but her hair has not increased and its length has increased very slowly. It is so embarrassing for a girl to have no hair, which makes the mother very worried and anxious. So what is the cause? What should I do if my child’s hair doesn’t grow long? Let’s take a look at it together below.

Check whether your baby is lacking in trace elements. Whether the baby is zinc or calcium deficient has always been a topic of concern for mothers. If a child is born with calcium deficiency, it can easily lead to hair growth and even affect bone development. There are also various vitamin deficiencies and so on. It is necessary to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.

See if your baby is sick often. Babies who are often sick will have weakened immunity, which will affect their physical development, especially for children who often suffer from diarrhea and fever. It is recommended to take your children out more often to bask in the warm sunshine. Outdoor exercise can enhance the baby's resistance.

Whether the scalp is infected with bacteria. Even adults' hair can easily be infected with bacteria which can cause hair dysplasia, let alone babies. Some bacteria and fungi can easily cause scalp inflammation. In daily life, you should pay attention to household hygiene and dry your quilt frequently. When the air is bad, try to wear a hat when taking your baby out.

Don't use inferior shampoo to wash your baby's hair. When washing your baby’s hair, try to choose pure natural herbal or plant shampoo, or use baby shampoo to prevent scalp allergies, which can cause slow hair growth over time. Bad shampoos may even contain trace amounts of harmful elements.

Check for any congenital diseases. If you have paid attention to the above issues and your baby still has no hair, you should go to a regular hospital for a genetic examination. Some diseases that are not related to hair can also cause poor hair development or even lead to hair loss and poor intellectual development. It is better for your baby to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Through the above content, we can understand the reasons why children’s hair does not grow long. What should we do if children’s hair does not grow long? I believe everyone has a certain degree of judgment. In our daily life, we can also pay more attention to supplementing our diet with some foods that are beneficial to hair production. For example, black sesame can nourish hair, Hericium erinaceus can promote hair growth, and carp can keep hair black and shiny. Through the unremitting efforts of mothers, I believe that children’s hair problems will be improved.
