Baby hair growth

Not sure what topic to post this under but here we go. Does anyone have any tips for baby hair growth? My LO was born with hair that all fell out at 3 months.. he is now almost 9 months and it's only started to show up here and there. It's also very fine and fluffy almost just like the hair he has when born and doesn't feel like real hair (as if he would loose it again)
Any advice at all or had anyone noticed the same on their little one? Pic for his little tuff of hair

Tips? I’m not really sure what you expect. It’s very normal for babies to not have much hair or to have loads of hair. It’s also very common for the hair they’re born with to fall out and then to grow back a completely different colour. It’ll grow. He’s perfect !

Same happened to my little girl and she still only has a thin layer months later, all normal

It’ll be fine. One of my children was like that for ages. Ask your parents if you or your partner were like that.

Oh he's perfectly gorgeous. My DD was still pretty much bald at her first bday. It just grows at its own rate. She has more hair now she's almost 2 but some friends toddlers hair is super long already and needs several hair cuts to maintain. Don't worry about it.

There aren't any magic hairgrowth tips of that's what you mean, it's normal for babies to lose their hair and for it regrow later. My friends little girl was born completely bald and basically had a pixie cut by the time she was starting school as it grew in so slowly!

Both of mine were born with thick black hair - DD was like a spikey little hedgehog - fell out at 3/4 months then grew in lighter. DD is 7 now and her hair is completely blond.
