Patient's question:
One and a half years old, the hair is thin and sparse, yellow and soft, not good at all. What is the reason for the newborn's hair loss?Doctor's answer:
It's unnecessary to worry about newborns having sparse hair. On one hand, hair genetics are quite prominent, and there are individual differences. The quantity, color, and pros and cons of hair are somewhat related to the parents' genetics. If the parents have good hair, the child's hair will also be better, and if the parents have poor hair, the child's hair will also be poor. On the other hand, the number of hair at birth has nothing to do with the future number of hair. Hair growth in infants is the same as physical growth. It can be early or late, fast or slow. As the body develops, most children will gradually go from thin to dense, from yellow to black. A large number of facts show that by the age of 1 to 2, infants with sparse hair are no different from other children.
