About hair
The hair follicles are placed in the scalp approximately 6 months of intrauterine development of the fetus. This explains the fact that some babies are born with fuzz on his head. However, it is not necessary. There are several major reasons why the baby is not growing or very slow growing hair. These include diet, heredity, stress factors.
