Mother Stopped In The Street As People Think Baby Son Wears Wig Thanks To Wild Mop Of Hair
Strangers frequently stop her on the street, thinking her kid is a doll or wearing a wig because of his unruly mop of brown hair, according to a mother. Nurses and midwives were sʜᴏᴄᴋed when Emma Mooney’s baby Charlie Foster was born with black hair, she claimed. The nine-month-hair old’s has only grown longer and more voluminous since then, according to Emma. The mother, who works as a certification manager, claims she is stopped every time she leaves the house because people mistake her kid for a life-like reborn doll or a wig.
The mother, from Kettering, Northamptonshire, alleges she and her kid were stopped 11 times in one day by strangers. “People stop us in the street all the time,” she added. “It’s like we’re a tiny star.” We can’t walk into a supermarket without being stopped. Some store patrons believe he is a doll, and that I am simply wheeling a doll about in a stroller. I’ve been asked if he wears a wig, and despite dressing like a male, he’s often mistaken for a girl. ‘Why do you think that?’ I ponder when people wonder if he’s wearing a wig. No one’s putting wigs on newborns.”
“He had this beautiful, huge head of hair, and I used to joke he looked like one of the Golden Girls. He appeared to have had his hair blow-dried in a salon. I was at Ikea the other day when someone commented to me, “Oh my God, your baby’s hair is gorgeous,” which I hear fairly often. I’m not bothered by the attention; it’s great.” She stated, ” “When I go shopping with him, it takes me a long time. A few days ago, we went to Asda. We were just there for an hour and a half because I simply needed bread and milk. I believe the most I’ve been stopped in one day is 11 times by individuals who want to touch it and ask questions about it.”
The mother-of-one, who lives with Colin Foster, a 45-year-old transportation planner, previously published a charity shop find on Facebook that was modeled by Charlie. The picture was inundated with comments from perplexed social media users, who wondered if Charlie was a toy or if he was wearing a wig. Emma stated, ” “People commented on my Facebook post that he looked like a doll and wondered whether he was wearing a wig. It received 100 comments in a matter of minutes, which was incredible.” “Edit: he doesn’t sit in it for lengthy periods of time, thank you for your advice, and yes, I guarantee he’s a genuine baby and that’s his actual hair!” she had to amend her Facebook ad after publishing it.
