What is the custom of children's haircut in Putian, Fujian? Statement? Full Moon or Hundred Days?
When the baby is just full moon, the mother will arrange to shave his fetal hair and eyebrows, because the old man said that this result will make the baby's hair and eyebrows grow black and dense in the future. Truth analysis: Chinese medicine believes that hair can grow well as long as it is healthy, so there is no need to worry about the future growth of healthy babies. In addition, the baby's skin is thin and tender, and the cuticle of the epidermis is not fully developed. The baby does not know how to cooperate when shaving his head and eyebrows. It is easy to damage the skin and make bacteria take advantage of it, thus infecting skin diseases and even causing folliculitis, affecting hair, eyebrows and growth. Scientific practice: under normal circumstances, the baby's eyebrows will fall off and replace themselves three to six months after birth. From this perspective, isn't it asking for trouble for such a young child to shave his baby's hair and eyebrows? Note: (1) The best time for a baby to pluck fetal hair: If the baby is born with thick hair and it happens to be hot summer, it is recommended to shave the baby's hair short to prevent eczema, but it is not recommended to shave the head. Don't shave the scalp that has developed eczema, otherwise it will be more susceptible to infection. What should I pay attention to? (2) Precautions for removing fetal hair: The barber's haircut skills and tools are particularly important for the baby's first haircut. Mothers must pay attention to the choice of hairdressers. They want to know whether the hairdresser is experienced, whether he has passed the health examination, whether he has received the baby haircut and medical training, whether he uses the baby-specific haircut tools and is strictly disinfected before the haircut, and whether he has been praised and recognized by parents and medical departments. (3) Wash your baby's hair after pulling out the fetal hair: It is best to wash your hair immediately after the baby shaves the fetal hair, and use clear water. Six months ago, if it was hot, it was best to wash the baby's hair once a day, and if it was cold, it should be washed once every two to three days. Keeping hair clean often can stimulate the scalp in a benign way, thus promoting hair growth. If you don't wash your baby's hair often, the grease, sweat and dirt on your scalp will stimulate your scalp, causing itching, blistering and even infection. (4) After the baby is born, the scalp is exposed: when the baby is born, the scalp is exposed, or the hair turns yellow and soft, which is called "baldness in children". In fact, it is normal for children to be bald. It is very important for babies with "children's baldness" to wash their hair frequently and keep their scalp clean. First of all, wash your hair often. Massage the scalp gently when washing. You can choose baby shampoo and then rinse it gently with water. In addition, adequate and comprehensive nutrition, regular outdoor activities, proper sunlight exposure and fresh air are conducive to the all-round development of the baby's body and hair growth.
