Shaving baby hair

[mummy J]

Hi

Can I ask. Do all babies need to shave their hair?

My LO has got very little fine hair since birth and my in-law insisted to bring him for a shave which I do not really approve off. How do I tell them not to follow the myth.

Thanks.

hello mummy J! my daughter Claire has very little and fine hair now despite shaving at 3 months! haha so I guess it's not a guarantee

thanks mayoresskong!!

that's why I don't wanna try. coz my friend's son was cut during the process.

And my husband because his parents keep insisting, now also want to bring. I try to explain is a myth but they don't listen.

no worries! hmmmm, I guess it depends on you and your husband..... Maybe you may want to find out from your in-laws why they are so persistent bout shaving your son's hair? Or just try to divert their attention to something else... hahahah

their reason is that must shave first then the hair will grow. I already told them its just a myth. Just don't know how to get the message across to them.
