All babies look cute and beautiful anyway, it doesn’t matter whether they have less or more hair. The arrival of a baby brings so much love and new things to learn which makes parenthood more memorable and joyful. As you learn to take care of your baby’s other needs, taking care of their cute little hair and scalp is equally important to ensure they have healthy and strong hair later in life.
Start with these tips to learn newborn hair care and scalp care:
- Shampoo the Hair
Use mild and tear-free baby shampoo to gently clean baby’s hair and scalp. You don’t need to wash daily, it depends upon the length of the baby’s hair and how quickly their scalp gets dirty and oily. If your baby has long hair, pay extra attention to keeping it clean and oil-free. You can massage using the fingertips while shampooing the baby’s hair. Don’t scratch and scrub.
- Dry Baby’s Hair Naturally
For the utmost infants hair care, it’s best to gently pat dry using a soft towel and then let it dry on its own. Avoid aggressive drying and combing in the wet hair because it can lead to loosening of the sensitive baby’s hair.
