Hi dear
Sweat in hair does not cause cold although it can cause scalp problems so u can cut ur childs hair
Although if u feel that child is small u can try cutting at home as well because they will be more comfortable at home and won't get anxious so it would be easy for u to make them sit and cut their hair .
If the child is getting cold it's coz of change in environmental these days so don't let child sleep in AC or directly under the fan.
Make them wear full pant and shirt
Give them dry fruits in the diet to boost immunity
Take care
