I believe many regions have the habit of shaving fetal hair during the full moon, and when shaving fetal hair, many people will shave off one of their facial features, the brow. Although shaving off eyebrows may not look great, they can still grow back. Do babies really need to shave their eyebrows when shaving their fetal hair?
The customs vary from place to place. In some places, it is necessary to shave both eyebrows when shaving fetal hair, while in others, it is sufficient to shave the hair. However, scientifically speaking, blindly shaving fetal hair or eyebrows for babies can actually cause significant harm to them. The specific reasons are as follows:
1. Eyebrows have a protective effect. Eyebrows above the eyes can protect them and prevent dust and sand from entering the eyes. If all the eyebrows are shaved off when shaving fetal hair, this layer of protection will be lost, and the eyes will be easily exposed to dust. In addition, when shaving fetal hair for newborns, it is very careful. If you are not careful and scrape off a little bit of the skin under the baby's eyebrows, although the wound will scab and heal later, it will be difficult for the eyebrows to grow out, which will make them even uglier in the future.
2. The regrowth of eyebrows looks even uglier. Why do people choose to shave their eyebrows when shaving their fetal hair? It is said that after shaving the eyebrows, the eyebrows that grow in the future will look better. However, this is actually unscientific. On the contrary, because the eyebrows are shaved off, the shape of the baby's eyebrows will change, and the position and shape of the eyebrows that grow in the future will also change, even becoming more messy.
