Is it cooler to shave your head in summer?

1, shaving is easy to cause infection

It's no good cutting the baby's hair. It is neither radiating nor hygienic, especially for babies within 6 months. A little carelessness will hurt their delicate scalp. The fontanel door of the baby's head should be protected and can't be pressed casually. Hair plays a certain role in protecting and buffering the baby's small head. If you really shave your head, the whole little head will be completely exposed, which is very unsafe.

Baby's skin is delicate, thinner than that of adults, about 1 mm thick, and most adult's skin is 2 mm thick. Moreover, the stratum corneum, transparent layer and granular layer of epidermis are very thin and undeveloped, and there are abundant blood vessels under the skin, but their defense function is poor and their resistance to external stimuli is poor, so they are easy to be hurt by shaving and infected. Once infected, it is not easy to control, and the infection spreads quickly.

2. Hair can help the body to dissipate heat, but shaving the head weakens this effect.

Those who think it's cool to get a haircut in summer are wrong. Shaving your head seems to make your baby cooler, but it's just the opposite. Hair itself helps to dissipate heat and regulate temperature. Shaving the head weakens this effect. When the temperature of air or environment is equal to the temperature of human skin, almost all the heat of human body is lost through sweating. If the temperature is higher than the skin temperature, it will absorb heat from the external environment instead of radiating it out. If the baby is bald, the heat absorbed by the skin will increase, and the sweat discharged from the skin will be lost quickly, which will not play the role of evaporation and heat dissipation through sweat.

3, shaving your head is easy to sunburn your baby

At the same time, after shaving, the whole scalp of the baby is exposed. If the sun protection work is not done well, it is easy to be attacked by the sun, leading to sunburn and even brain damage. Once the baby is shaved, it means losing the natural safety barrier that blocks the external environment, and the chances of accidental injuries, mosquito bites and various bacterial infections on the scalp are greatly increased. If bacteria invade children's hair roots, it will also destroy hair follicles, which will affect the normal growth of hair in severe cases.

Although the continuous high temperature weather is unbearable, compared with the hot weather, the inhuman experience of a pregnant woman in Yuan Yongsheng Community, Yumen Street, Xigu District, Lanzhou City has made many people feel chilling. On July 20, some netizens broke the news that a girl whose parents died was kicked out of the house by her boyfriend after she became pregnant. Now the girl is about to give birth, homeless, penniless and helpless in the corridor. The reporter from Western Business Daily rushed to the community for an interview on the evening of July 2 1 and learned that a young woman had lived in the corridor on the sixth floor of Unit 3 of Building 2 of the community for 6 days and 6 nights because she had nowhere to live. Many good-hearted people in the community take turns guarding every day and send food and drink to this pregnant woman, which is very warm.
