hi, my baby is 2 yrs of age and she is having access hairs on her body, she is feeling extreme heat due to it, can i softly wax my baby's body hairs?

A. It's quite common for toddlers to have soft, fine body hair, but if your 2-year-old is feeling uncomfortable due to the excess hair, it’s important to approach this with caution. Waxing or using any hair removal treatments on a baby’s delicate skin is not recommended, as these methods can cause irritation, pain, and potentially lead to skin damage or allergic reactions. Instead of waxing, you could try gentler alternatives like trimming the hair with baby-safe scissors or using a soft hair-removal cream made specifically for children, but always patch test before using any product. It's also helpful to dress your baby in light, breathable clothing to manage any discomfort from heat. If the excessive hair seems abnormal or is causing persistent issues, it would be a good idea to consult a pediatrician to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
