When to cut your baby's hair for the first time: a very specific answer to the question
There is an opinion that the first “fluff” on a child’s head must be cut off so that it can be replaced by thick and beautiful hair – otherwise the baby will grow up “bald”.
Let's figure out if this is really true. Perhaps it will be easier for you to overcome these attitudes if you become familiar with the following facts.
Cutting your hair has no effect on its thickness, color, texture or the rate at which it grows.
All of the listed factors are nothing more than genetic characteristics, the change of which occurs solely as a result of changes in the body (we are talking about diseases).
Therefore, if there are no restrictions in the family – for example, cultural or religious ones – only parents determine when it is necessary to cut hair for the first time.
Perhaps adults will decide that the child’s hair shouldn’t be cut at all – and that’s okay too.
The only real consequence of cutting your hair is that it will make your baby's head cold.
Therefore, if the haircut falls in the cold season, either do not cut the hair too short, or properly warm the baby's head when going for a walk.
