What to do if your child has thinning hair

Children's every move is what parents are most concerned about. Because children's organs are not fully developed, their immunity and digestive abilities are relatively poor, and they are prone to various abnormal conditions. We recommend that parents take good care of their children in their daily lives and seek timely treatment if their children become ill. Below we will introduce what to do if your child has thinning hair.

Many babies are born with sparse, yellow and soft hair. Mothers are very distressed about this, thinking that the baby did not develop well during the fetal period and his hair will not look good when he grows up. In fact, there is no need to worry about it, because it is just a short physiological phenomenon for the newborn baby.

The amount of hair varies from person to person. Although some newborns have sparse hair, the hair will gradually grow around one year old. By the age of 2, the hair will have grown quite a lot. At 5 to 6 years old, the hair will be as thick and black as other babies'. Hair loss will generally not occur later.

Because babies have sparse hair, some parents dare not wash their children's hair, fearing that it will cause the already sparse hair to fall out, making the hair even thinner. In fact, the hair that falls out during the washing process is aging and will fall out automatically. If you do not wash your hair for a long time, the oil, sweat and other secretions as well as pollutants will irritate the scalp, causing itching, blisters and even secondary infection of the scalp, which will cause the hair to fall out. Some mothers think that shaving their baby's hair can accelerate hair growth. In fact, this method is not advisable. Some mothers blindly apply "hair growth essence" and drugs such as hair growth spirit on the baby's scalp, hoping that the baby can grow thick hair. It should be noted that such drugs are not suitable for the tender scalp of infants and young children, and may sometimes bring adverse consequences.

So, what should you do if you find that your baby's hair is thinning?

Wash your baby's hair frequently. Only by washing your baby's hair frequently, keeping the scalp clean and hygienic, and stimulating the scalp can you promote hair growth. When washing your hair, you should use a baby shampoo. Gently massage your hair while washing, and do not rub it to prevent it from getting tangled. Then rinse it with clean warm water.

Comb your baby's hair frequently. When combing your baby's hair, you should use a rubber comb, which is elastic and soft and will not damage the baby's scalp. Comb the baby's hair in the direction of its natural growth and do not force it in one direction.

Adequate nutrition Adequate and comprehensive nutrition is extremely important for the baby's development and growth. Let the child take in more protein, vitamins A, S, C and mineral-rich foods in time according to the age of the baby. This can supply the hair roots through the blood circulation, making the hair grow stronger and more beautiful.

Get more sun exposure and proper sunlight and fresh air, which are very beneficial to the growth of baby's hair. Ultraviolet rays are not only beneficial for sterilization, but also can promote the development of scalp and hair growth.
