30 April 2024 | By Sheeza

After a Mundan ceremony, it's important to soothe the scalp and protect the newly shaved skin. Many families choose to apply a gentle, natural oil such as coconut oil or almond oil to moisturize the scalp and prevent any discomfort or dryness. Additionally, some prefer to use traditional herbal pastes or powders like turmeric paste or sandalwood paste, known for their cooling and healing properties. These applications not only provide relief but also hold cultural significance, symbolizing purity and protection. Whatever is applied, the goal is to ensure the comfort and well-being of the child following this significant ritual.
