What to do with baby hair after mundan?

03 May 2024 | By Sheeza

After the traditional mundan ceremony, where a baby's head is shaved, there are various sweet gestures one can do with the baby's hair. Some families choose to preserve a lock of the shorn hair as a keepsake, often placing it in a small pouch or locket. This act symbolizes a cherished memory of the baby's infancy and the transition into childhood. Others might scatter the hair in a natural setting, such as a garden or a flowing river, as a symbol of letting go and allowing the child to grow and flourish. Regardless of the chosen method, the mundan ceremony and its aftermath hold deep cultural and emotional significance for many families, marking an important milestone in the baby's life journey.
