How to improve the slow hair growth of a two-month-old baby?

I don’t know what the reason is, but the hair of babies who are just born grows slowly and not very much. This makes many mothers worried. They always try various methods to improve the hair growth for their children, but after all the hard work, the effect is still not obvious. Could the slow growth of baby’s hair be due to life development? What are some good ways to improve the slow hair growth of two-month-old babies?

It is normal for babies to have sparse hair before the age of 1. This is related to the speed of myelination of the hair, just like the teeth in the mouth, which will grow out naturally at a certain time. Usually when the baby is about 1 year old, the hair will start to grow naturally, but it will be sparse at first. When the baby is 5-6 years old, the hair will gradually become thick and black. However, acquired factors cannot be ignored, as they can also affect the quality of hair. If you want your baby to have healthy and beautiful hair, the mother needs to take good care of it.

The first trick: wash your baby's hair frequently. Babies grow and develop very quickly, so their metabolism is very active. Therefore, it is best to wash your baby's hair once a day before 6 months old. After 6 months, you can change to washing your baby's hair every 2-3 days. Keeping your hair clean regularly can provide benign stimulation to the scalp, avoid itching, blistering, and even infection of the scalp, thereby promoting hair germination and growth. When washing your baby's hair, you should use pure, mild, non-irritating baby shampoo, preferably one that produces foam easily. Also, when washing the baby's hair, gently massage the baby's scalp with the tips of your fingers. Do not rub the hair hard to prevent the hair from becoming tangled and difficult to comb, which may cause the hair to fall out easily.

The second trick: Comb your baby’s hair frequently. Mommy should always carry a special comb for her baby. Whenever it is convenient, she can take it out and comb her baby’s hair a few times, because combing the baby’s hair frequently can stimulate the scalp, promote local blood circulation, and help hair growth. However, do not use a comb that is too hard. It is best to use a rubber comb because it is both elastic and soft and will not easily damage the baby's delicate scalp. Here is a reminder that when mothers comb their baby's hair, they must comb it in the direction of the baby's natural hair growth, and the movements and force should be consistent. Do not comb the baby's hair in the opposite direction according to your own wishes.

The third trick is to give your baby enough sleep

Lack of sleep can easily lead to poor appetite, frequent crying, and illness in babies, which is an indirect factor affecting hair growth.

Tip 4: Take your baby to sunbath

Appropriate exposure to sunlight is also very beneficial to the baby's hair growth. Ultraviolet rays can promote blood circulation in the scalp and improve hair quality. It is worth noting that when the sunlight is strong, the baby's scalp must not be exposed to the sun. At this time, wear a sun hat to prevent sunburn on the scalp.

Therefore, if mothers want their baby's hair to grow quickly and well, in addition to starting from the above aspects, they must also start from nutrition and cleanliness, which will greatly help improve the baby's hair quality. If you keep doing these things, you will slowly find that your child's hair will grow better and faster. From now on, you don’t have to worry about your baby’s hair growing too slowly.
