The Baby Born with a Crown of Hair
When Emily Foster from Kent, England, went for her 20-week scan, she never expected the surprise waiting on the screen — her baby already appeared to have a halo of hair. Even the doctor joked she was carrying a “little rock star.”
Months later, baby Ivy was born with a thick mane of chocolate-brown hair, stunning nurses and winning hearts instantly. Unlike the fine fuzz most newborns have, Ivy’s silky locks were long enough to brush, earning her the nickname “storybook princess.”
As she grew, Ivy’s glossy hair drew attention everywhere, with strangers asking if it was real. Emily often joked her daughter was “born ready for a shampoo commercial.” Bath time became a favorite, especially when Ivy giggled under the blow-dryer’s warm air.
Doctors explained her hair was simply a rare genetic trait — unusual but perfectly healthy. Yet Ivy’s story has spread beyond medical curiosity, reminding people worldwide of life’s small wonders.
Wrapped in curls from birth, Ivy has become a symbol of everyday magic.
