Is it good to give the baby a haircut when the baby is one month old? Shaving the baby's head when the baby is one month old is a folk custom. Does it have any scientific basis? Is it good for the baby if everyone does this? These are the problems we need to solve. Don't believe in those customs. Understand this practice from a scientific perspective. In this way, you will understand this custom from a scientific perspective. In fact, customs are not particularly important. Health is the most important thing.

Shaving the baby's head when it is one month old is a folk practice. When the baby is one month old, the baby's hair is shaved off with a razor. It is believed that this can reduce the chance of sores on the head. Some also believe that this can make the hair grow thicker and darker. Some people even shave the baby's eyebrows. In fact, these practices have no scientific basis at all.

The baby's skin is thin, and the stratum corneum is composed of several layers of scales that are not tightly attached to each other. The skin is smooth and delicate in appearance and can be damaged by even the slightest trauma. In addition, the water content in the connective tissue of children's skin is higher than that of adults, and the blood vessels are rich but fragile. Even slight stimulation can cause injury and bleeding. In addition, the skin is attached with bacteria soon after birth. Under these conditions, shaving the baby's hair, especially with a razor that has not been sterilized at all, can easily cause scalp damage. The bacteria on the razor and skin can enter the skin through the wound and cause scalp infection, and in severe cases, it can also cause sepsis. This not only fails to prevent sores, but also causes unnecessary damage.

In addition, hair growth has a certain periodicity, and the amount of hair is related to endocrine, nutritional, nervous, genetic and other factors. Hair growth is related to the growth cycle of the hair follicles themselves. Hair follicles in different parts grow asynchronously, and the hair growth cycle is relatively long, generally 2-5 years. Shaving the hair cannot change the growth of hair follicles or the nature of the hair. Therefore, shaving the head on the full moon day is harmful rather than helpful.

After the above expressions, everyone should understand the hair cycle and the issue of haircut when the baby is one month old. Cutting a baby's hair when he is one month older will not have any effect on the baby's body, which is why this custom still exists and no scientist has pointed out that it is wrong. After everyone understands this, there will be no more questions about this issue.
