A. only breastfeeding / milk is good enough to improve the hair growth in the child along with scalp massage. you have to give only vitamin d supplements and any other supplements if needed will be added by the doctor. you can use any oil for scalpd massage which is not causing allergy and massage can be given to or three times per day

A. Promotes hair growth- Almond oil is very beneficial for baby hair. Vitamin E and magnesium present in almond oil promote hair growth and keeps hair strong. Regular head massages can also prevent hair fall in babies.
