Some babies are born with a lot of hair, while others appear to be almost bald. Why this difference? It should be noted that no child is born really bald, since the so-called fetal fleece, or a thin layer of hair that covers their head, is already present before the birth. From 6 months up to the first year of life, this hair decreases, giving way to the growth of "real hair". However, there are children who are born with a rather thick layer of hair, so much so that we are led to imagine that they have a toupee on their head. Emma Mooney is a 35-year-old mother who knows this situation very well: her son Charlie Foster is only 9 months old, but he has such long hair that strangers ask her for an explanation on the street!

Charlie Foster came into the world with very thick hair: from his first day of life it was obvious that he would be a "long-haired" kid! In fact, that thick black hair has gradually turned into beautiful locks, perhaps a tad unusual for a 9-month-old baby. Charlie has so much hair that people stop his mom on the street to ask if it's real or if it's a wig. Looking at him, then, Charlie's little face is so sweet that he looks like a doll: it's no surprise that people are so curious when they see him in his stroller in the street.

As his mother confirmed, it feels like walking next to a little celebrity as people also stop her 10 or 11 times every time they go for a walk, to ask her a few questions about her son's hair. Emma she said she took him to the hairdresser for the first time when he was only 4 months old. The hairdresser looked at Emma and asked her: "What cut do you want?", Unaware that the woman was not there to get her own hair cut; Emma replied without batting an eye: "Oh, it's not for me ... it's for him!". Not even the hairdresser could believe that Charlie had all that hair! 

All this hair gives him an adorable and super sweet look - it's hard not to smile when looking at him! Emma claims that at Halloween she could disguise him as the perfect Count Dracula, as it would be enough to comb all his back, using a little gel: "That would be perfect!".

 Take a good look at him ... it's his real hair, it's not a wig! Don't you think he's adorable?
