Benefits of Baby's Hair Razor


The tradition of cutting or shaving baby hair is not only done by aceh society, but also exist in other cultures in the world. In the teachings of Islam the tradition of baby haircut performed on the seventh day of birth or aqiqah time.
Cutting baby hair is inserted into a young green coconut and then weighed and removed or whereby gold weighing the baby's hair as a social charity to the poor. This is not just a culture for the people of Aceh but also as a demand and an Islamic suggestion.

Things advocated by Islam and applied in the traditions of Acehnese society, such as naming, aqiqah, and shaving of hair.

Culture of baby shaving is also present in the Hindu tradition. and in the archipelago there is also a baby haircut culture. Just like the Javanese culture that knows the tradition of haircuts done at the age of 35 days or coincide with the ceremony selapanan. At that time some parents like grandpa / jar / pakde will alternately cut a little baby hair.

In Aceh, this ceremony will be followed by a tradition of banquets along with inviting neighbors or people around to eat together. before the baby was shaved hair first dipeusijuk. while in the Javanese customs this ceremony is followed by distributing a lump of rice gudangan (urap) in small children in the neighborhood. The people of Ternate-North Maluku also have a tradition of cutting baby's hair called saro-saro. This ceremony as a symbol to welcome new life for the baby.
The benefit of cutting or shaving a baby's hair medically is to clean the fat and waste substances from the mother's uterus that may be attached to the hair during labor.

baby's hair will be weighed after the potonng

In the haircut tradition of aceh babies, I see not only cut hair but including eyebrows and eyelashes with the intention of growing later on the hair will be thick and lush as well as the eyebrows and eyebrows when it grows will grow more beautiful.
