When my Son was born…, the first thing I asked the nurse was “Is he okei…Is he healthy?” and the second thing that popped out was “Does he have hair?” I know that’s ridiculous but I was just curious to know if he was like his Dad. The most common interest in hair would be like “Is it thick, Is it curly, Is that straight…” And a month goes… and there you go… your baby’s first haircut and that’s a milestone. This has a special significance and it depends to a large extend on one’s culture and religion. Actually the age at which the haircut happens is also largely depended on one’s culture or religion. In certain culture, they save the lock of the hair that was cut. Sometimes a ceremony is conducted for the first haircut and is a celebration for certain cultures. Certain cultural practices demand shaving of the hair entirely. They believe that the hair is one thing that helps stimulate the growth of brain and nerves. Shaving your baby’s hair is no big deal these days. You could do it yourself and guess what you could even do it at your home which makes your baby even more comfortable.
