Is it a must to shave baby's hair?

My mom kept commenting that we should shave our 7m baby hair — saying that their generation does that and babies' hair all grow out healthy / smooth — and never shave makes it grow out ugly/uneven. Seriously is that necessary? #firsttimemom #Needadvice

Hi shaving the birth hair is for cleanliness purpose as in the womb baby is in amniotic fluid and some urine tooo while delivering also it comes out with poop and urine . It is a belief that keeping the birth hair for long years makes baby sick
