Botak Denson

According to chinese beliefs, the hair that an infant bears at time of birth is also know as "tai mao" or fetal hair.. this hair began growing while the baby is in the womb and thus it would be a practice to shave the hair completely when the child is 1 month old.. this signifies a new and bright begining for the baby..

So in modern times, medically there is no ills of allowing the baby to keep their hair while some would argue that it is "cleaner" to remove the baby's hair at the 1 month interval..

Parents have the options of what they want to do with their children's hair and one of the more popular options now includes using the hair to make a calligraphy brush.. this brush will not be used but instead acts as a momento of the child's journey from womb to world..

On Sunday 31 Aug, daddy and mummy made an appointment for denson's hair to be shaved and made into a calligraphy brush.. more on that when the brush is ready in about 4-5weeks time!
