Why We Wait Until a Baby Walks to Cut Their Hair | Zulu Cultural Practice.

In many cultures, a baby’s first haircut happens soon after birth. But in Zulu culture, we wait. In this video, I share the meaningful practice of cutting a baby’s hair only after they start walking. This milestone represents growth, strength, and stepping into independence. When our last baby took their first steps, we were in Saudi Arabia during the pandemic — far from home in South Africa. Yet we chose to keep this cultural practice alive. Join me as I share the meaning behind this beautiful Zulu tradition and why preserving culture matters, no matter where you are in the world. 🔥 Let’s keep the family fire burning. 📝 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more Zulu cultural insights! 🔔    / @mzansizulumama   💡Zulu Language Playlist https://studio.youtube.com/playlist/P... 💡 A day in my life: Life as a South African playlist https://studio.youtube.com/playlist/P... 💡 South Africa: Food, culture and tradition playlist https://studio.youtube.com/playlist/P... 💡 Zulu kids corner    • Zulu Kids Stories   I DO NOT OWN RIGHTS TO THE BACKGROUND SOUND ON THE KIDS STORY-TIME VIDEOS!
