5-Month-Old Baby Goes Viral for Elvis-Like Hair — ‘Thought It Was a Wig’

A 5-month-old baby has gone viral over his fluffy hair that had people convinced he was wearing a wig. His mom, Liliana Yanez, has shared several videos of her son on social media, and people can’t get over how much hair he has at his age. Some have said he looks like a Cabbage Patch Kids doll or a Monchhichi toy.

Liliana told Today.com that her son “was born ready for a haircut.” Doctors and nurses even nicknamed him “Justin Bieber” after he was born because of the way his hair looked. Some of Liliana’s followers are jealous of her son’s luscious locks, especially because he appears to have natural highlights as well.

“Pov: my son was born with autumn balayage hair,” the mom captioned one video of her baby. Of course, people found the clip adorable, but several people also joked that they were inspired by the baby’s hair. “IM JEALOUSSSS,” one person commented. Another wrote, “Oh hunny im saving this for my hair inspo 😭.”

On another video, someone commented, “Bro has better hair than me 😭.”

The baby’s full head of hair reminded people of several well-known celebrities and characters, including Johnny Bravo, Elvis, and Edward Cullen from the first Twilight movie.

“That’s a baby Johnny bravo if I have ever seen one,” one person commented. A second TikTok user joked that Liliana’s son looked like he was going through his “emo phase.”

In the caption for one of her most recent videos of her son, Liliana wrote, “My 5 month old with fluffy hair I can’t imagine what it’ll look like at 1 year 😭.”

The mom admitted that the attention she gets because of her baby’s hair can be “a little overwhelming” at times.

She told Today.com, “Sometimes, I’d just like to go out with my baby and not have a conversation. Someone always stops us to point out his hair, which I appreciate, as a compliment.” Some of the comments she’s received, however, are negative, which is obviously concerning for the mom.

“I don’t want my baby to get hate comments — he’s just a baby!” she added.
