A girl from Australia, who has been likened to Doc Brown and Einstein, embraces her unique style, which is caused by a rare condition called uncombable hair syndrome.
When a little girl from Melbourne, Australia named Shilah was born, her parents didn't notice anything out of the ordinary about her hair. It was soft and brown, just like her older brother Taelan's. But after several months, it started to grow"straight up and not flattening down," her mom Celeste Calvert-Yin recently wrote on Love What Matters.
The parents tried various techniques on Shilah's hair before concluding that"it was a gene from our family history and that was just that.""We told people that perhaps it was a throwback to one of our family histories and people were okay with this explanation," Calvert-Yin wrote."Or I just said she was 'blessed with her hair and born to be noticed.' That was easier for kids to understand.
A even stranger likened Shi to Doc Brown from Back to the Future as she was wearing a lab coat."‘Your daughter looks just like Doc Brown, the guy in the movie. The crazy scientist guy!’" Calvert-Yin remembered."Others often said she had ‘hair like Albert Einstein.’ They were spot on, and it did become a bit of an in-house giggle for us."
Turns out, Shilah is one of only about 100 people in the world who is affected by UHS. According to the National Institutes of Health , it generally develops in childhood, often between infancy and age 3, but can appear as late as age 12. The condition usually improves over time. By adolescence, people with UHS might have hair that lies flat and has normal or nearly normal texture.
