A baby blanket, tiny socks and a hairbrush

A simple routine is enough

A gentle shampoo, conditioner on the ends and a wide-tooth comb. You do not need many products; consistency matters more.

During confinement

Confinement practices differ between families. If you wash your hair, use lukewarm water and dry the scalp fully so it does not stay damp under a tudung or towel.

Gentle ties

Babies love pulling hair, so many mothers tie it up all day. Use a soft scrunchie and change the position, as in tight hairstyles.

When to get help

If shedding goes on long after the birth or comes with extreme tiredness, see a doctor. For a fuller look, see suitability and tell us if you are still breastfeeding.

FAQ

Related questions

All questions
Should I cut my hair short?

It is a personal choice. Short hair is easier to manage and can look fuller, but it does not change shedding.

Can I colour my hair after giving birth?

Ask your doctor, especially if breastfeeding, and do a patch test first.
