any asian or muslim mums that shaved their babies hair?

[vannah]

Hello all,

just wondering if there are any mums out there who shaved their babies hair (bizarre cultural reasons - Im not sure I believe in the 'makes your hair grow back thicker' theory)

Im happy to ignore my family pressuring me to shave my dd's hair, I ignored them with the first child. But lately have been wondering if it makes any difference to CRADLE CAP?

ie after the head was shaved, did your baby get cradle cap?
Ive not seen cradle cap on my sister/brother's children, but my ds who's head was not shaved was covered in cradle cap from about 3 months onwards, and looks like my little daughter is about to get it too...(she is 6 weeks old)

any thoughts?
thankyou (also posted in mixed families)

i did, not for cultural but religous reasons, didnt grow back thicker but she was born dark and was very blond when it grew back! She now looks like she has blond highlights at nearly 2.

She didnt have cradle cap, or i dont remember it!

thanks LD - how long did it take to grow back?
