This baby was born with so much hair that it even showed up on her ultrasound

A baby girl who is stopped on the street over her thick brunette locks has so much hair it even showed up on an ultrasound.

Mother Natasha Gent, 28, from Medway, Kent, was told by doctors to expect a baby with "a bit of hair" after they detected wisps around Holly's head on the 20-week scan.

Now just four months old, Holly and her beautiful bouffant draw attention wherever she goes, with many comparing her to a perfect little doll.

Fortunately for Natasha and husband Ashley, Holly already has a taste for pampering and is very happy to sit and have her hair washed and blow-dried. 

First-time mother Natasha said: "Holly absolutely loves bath time and afterwards when her hair is dead straight it goes all the way past her shoulders.

"Sometimes she has a blow-dry if her hair needs to dry quickly. She really enjoys it but sometimes she does try to eat the air.

"Her hair afterwards is so funny. It has grown straight upwards so after it's dried it looks like a little afro. It makes us laugh so much."

Despite the doctors' warning, Natasha and Ashley were still shocked at how much hair Holly had when she was born.

"It hasn't stopped growing since the day she was born," she said. "We're lucky that it has always been really easy to look after."

Now Natasha cannot go to the supermarket or into a restaurant without someone stopping to comment on her daughter's hair.  

"I catch people staring and nudging each other going 'Wow look at that baby's hair'," she said.

"It's nice as a mum to hear that, although sometimes I don't know what to say because there's only so many ways you can say thank you. 

"Obviously, to me, Holly will always be the most beautiful child but to get compliments from other people is so nice.

"And Holly absolutely loves the attention. She is so friendly and when people come over to her she just smiles away."

Natasha, who was also born with a full head of hair, thinks Holly needs to go for her first trip to the hairdressers soon, Ashley is not ready. 

"We're both fans of long hair but he is definitely more attached to it than me," Natasha said. "It's just so beautiful."
