Newborn Emerges with Lush Head of Hair: Mother Stunned by Appearance after Several Months
In early September, Liliana Yanez, a mother from Oregon, shared a video of her son, Baby Noah, on TikTok. The video, which has since garnered over 650,000 views, features Noah's wild, tangled, and extremely thick hair.
Born with a full head of hair, Noah's locks have continued to grow, much to the amazement of his mother. Liliana told Newsweek that Noah had a lot of hair at birth, but not as much as he has now. She believes she passed her thick hair to her son, as she had a lot of hair as a baby and still has a lot after giving birth.
Liliana noticed that Noah's hair was getting longer and thicker around three months. She expressed her amazement at her son's hair growth and speculated about what it would look like at a year. The hair on Noah's head did not fall out after birth, but continued to grow.
The video does not contain any advertisements and does not mention any other events or context. Liliana is currently focused on the viral success of her TikTok video about Baby Noah's hair.
Research suggests that the mother of a child with such thick hair may carry a gene associated with thicker hair, such as a variant in the FGFR2, WNT10A, or EDAR gene, which can influence hair thickness and density.
The article also features other topics under the category "Oddities", including "Cash Cloud", "Woman Returns Home After Months and Makes Chilling Discovery", and "Shocking Find: Tentacles Grow from Alleged Meteorite". However, it is important to note that there is no mention of an incident involving "Cash Cloud" and an honest woman saving an innkeeper in the article about Baby Noah's hair.
Newsweek has contacted Liliana Yanez to inquire about Baby Noah's thick hair, but as of the time of writing, we have not received a response. Regardless, the video of Baby Noah's hair on TikTok has brought joy and amusement to many, showcasing the unexpected and unique aspects of newborn babies.
