Sometimes bald is beautiful
Some babies are born with a full head of hair while others are nearly bald. Other babies have a lot of hair when they are born only to soon fall out. While bald babies are adorable, sometimes parents (particularly of baby girls) want their baby's hair to grow more quickly so that it seems thicker and longer. There are a few things you can do to assure that your infant's scalp is healthy which will allow her hair to grow more quickly.
Instructions
1. Gently brush your baby's hair. This will stimulate the scalp and keep the blood flowing to the hair follicles.
2. Assure good nutrition. Hair growth is dependent on good nutrition. If you are breastfeeding, make sure you are getting a balanced diet.
3. Treat for cradle cap. Cradle cap can occur in a baby and can leave scales on the scalp which can hinder hair growth. You can treat cradle cap with a little dandruff shampoo (careful not to get it in baby's eyes) and by brushing your baby's hair with a soft brush.
4. Avoid damaging your baby's hair. Although little hair clips are cute, they can damage a baby's fine hair and cause it to break off.
5. If your baby is African American, massaging a little natural oil (such as jojoba or olive) can keep the hair moist and will encourage it to continue growing.
6. Oftentimes trimming the wispy ends of your baby's hair will make it appear thicker, even if it does not help it grow.
