Cut it out, trolls!
An Ohio mom claims she has been called an “irresponsible” parent because her daughter’s unruly tresses have sparked Albert Einstein comparisons.
Nevermind the 3-year-old girl has reportedly been diagnosed with uncombable hair syndrome — a rare disorder characterized by dry, frizzy hair that can’t be combed flat. It’s also known as “spun-glass hair syndrome.”
“I wish people understood that even if I wash and brush it, it won’t lay flat,” Ali McMillin, 26, told Jam Press.
The stay-at-home mom from Dayton, Ohio, noticed Aurora’s hair was growing upwards instead of down when she turned one year old. McMillin said she was officially diagnosed with uncombable hair syndrome in January 2022.
McMillin wished people knew Aurora’s condition, so they wouldn’t judge so quickly. She expressed concern her daughter will be bullied as she grows older.
“A man [once] made a comment behind my back to his wife about how he can tell who the irresponsible parent is because of how messy her hair was,” McMillin said.
She continued: “In reality, that’s just how it looks if it’s down… I left crying because I was so hurt by that comment.”
McMillin said Aurora embraces her ununsual hair, which has become a hit on TikTok.
One clip has been viewed more than 22,000 times since it was posted last year.
“Aww lil Ace Ventura hairdo!” one commenter gushed.
“If Doc Brown from Back To The Future had a kid LOL. She’s adorable though,” another laughed.
Someone else added: “LOL. Does her hair match her personality? Because it seems to have a mind of its own.”
“I love the wild hair! She is absolutely beautiful,” raved a fan.
Another enthused: “Love it…Albert Einstein hair.”
Meanwhile, a California mom says she is often quizzed about her young son’s incredible brown hair.
Rachel Sivils, 31, claims some people have even accused her of putting a wig on Adam.
“I get questions like, ‘Was he born with that much hair? What did you do when you were pregnant with him? Did you take any vitamins?'” Sivils told Kennedy News Service.
But Sivils insists she didn’t do anything special to achieve Adam’s crowd-stopping hairdo, which has drawn comparisons to the Beatles.
The 11-month-old is nearly due for his first haircut, Sivils said, and he has to wear his hair in a man bun most days just to see.
“When he was born he came out with a full head of hair, and everybody was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’ve never seen a baby with so much hair,'” Sivils remembered.
“‘Everyone was really surprised, but all my friends and family were like, ‘It’s beautiful, but he’ll lose it, and then it will come back differently.'”
To everyone’s surprise, Adam’s hair has continued to grow out.
His locks are so long that people often assume he’s a girl at first glance — but even Sivils’ 2-year-old daughter, Kathryn, doesn’t have hair like Adam.
“We all love and embrace his hair,” Sivils said. “I think we’re going to trim it up and keep it a little bit nicer looking when he turns one. But we’re going to keep the long hair look, I think it suits him.”
