Our little guy was born with lots of dark hair but it quickly stated growing in blonde- we called it reverse roots.

All three of my little ones had full dark long air as babies. Specifically, my middle child was very, very hairy. Her hair was thick and dark and stood out all over in tall spikes, an inch or more long. She was totally adorable. And I never noticed at the time, but looking back at the photos, she went through some very unfortunate stages before it grew out. First, there’s the ring around the back and sides that becomes bald, from laying on her back and looking around, and the mullet below and spikes on top. Then the top grew so long, and began to bend back, a stage we dubbed the ‘Mike Ditka’ (google him if you want a visual). It thinned and I still couldn’t bring myself to cut it so there were long wisps that hung all over, and a slightly ‘see through to the scalp’ effect. So, be careful what you wish for!

My daughter had a little bit of hair at birth, that rather quickly fell out, and has taken forever to come back. She was definitely the gleaming head bald, and still, has very short very thin hair. The parts that are long (unfortunately right at the nape of her neck…rat tail!) are curly, so it makes her hair look shorter. Joy of joys. You should totally etsy it for cute knit pilot caps, we have a bunch of different animal ones like a mouse, cat, owl. I love the HA ones but sometimes you can only take so much cotton one color sameness. I personally do not like those giant headbands with flowers but I see many baldies with them if that floats your boat!
She is adorable. I’m in love with the little double chin!

Neither of my boys were follicularly challenged at birth (although the younger did lose all the hair on top of his head when he was a few weeks old. My mom called it a tonsure), but they both had ENORMOUS noggins. No surprise, as my husband and I are both similarly blessed in this area. That’s why I couldn’t believe that my friend since middle school got me one of those adorable HA pilot caps in XS!! Both boys wore it, but not for nearly as long as I would have liked!

Aw, the pilot caps are cute! And all the babies in Finland wear them. :)

My son had dark loads of dark hair at birth, he never really lost it, or did it unnoticed. He did have the bald spot on the back of his head though, until he started to sleep on his tummy. Now he has very fine but lots of blond hair – kept short, I’m no fan of angelic curls on little boys’ heads. As for those hats – I hate everything that even remotely seems to choke, so I never put any hats on him with bands, nor huge scarves or turtle necks. He did take off his hat for a week or so, but I just kept putting it back on him and repeatedly said that it’s cold, we have to wear a hat, look, mommy wears one too, and that was it, wasn’t a big deal getting him used to it. (Or else he gave up as he felt my determination on keeping those hats on his head.;-)

My son – like me, his father, and just about everyone else in both of our families – was born bald as a cueball. When our daughter popped out two years later with thick brown fuzz, I asked (ridiculously, since the cord was still attached) “Hair? Is she mine?” To which my husband replied “Never mind that – is she MINE?” (Yes to both, BTW… and she ended up blond a few months later.)
