Guest guest Posted March 27, 2002 Report Share Posted March 27, 2002 Hi , Well I'm certainly no expert here, and can only really comment on our DOC band experience, so I hope others will chime in on this one. When they are that young, head growth is constantly changing. started with his band, and true almost 2 weeks had passed from casting to wearing it, they had to shave parts of the inside to have it fit correctly as there was already some changes. We had to go in weekly, and without fail, each week they shaved off more where the head had grown- which was a good thing, so I was thrilled that every week, from 5 months to 8 months, they shaved off areas to accomodate more new " rounder " growth. I am not sure how other bands like STAR or local helmets work, so hopefully someone can answer that and maybe its not a problem for helmets of that type. I know that had been 8 months and older, they only needed to have check ups every 2 weeks as growth was not as aggresive. Hope this helps!
