Your child has a very delicate scalp at this stage. It is best to avoid soft hair brushes for your baby’s scalp as these can cause minor abrasions on your little one’s scalp. Always use the fleshy part of your fingers to massage and comb your little one’s hair. If your baby’s fontanel is still very soft, you need to be extra gentle while washing their head. Head and hair care are important aspects for your little one's hygiene.
