Eighteen-month-old Layla Davis looks a lot like legendary scientist Einstein. At least her hair. In the meantime, he has got a lot of recognition on social media. Many have also compared him with former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson. But the child is not equal to these two famous people in intelligence or power. His head of hair looks a lot like Einstein and Johnson.
The child suffers from uncombable hair syndrome, a rare hair disease. It is a genetic disease. The disease was first diagnosed in 1973. The number of patients suffering from this disease is about 100 people worldwide.
Since birth, Layla Davis's relatives have been very worried. After going to the specialist, they found out that hair cannot be combed with this disease. Not even in water.
The child lives with family in Great Blakenham, Suffolk, UK. His father told local media that he tried using shampoo-conditioner on the child's hair many times. But it didn't work.
According to the US government's Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center, uncombable hair syndrome is a disorder of the scalp. With this disease, the patient's hair is usually silvery-blonde. There are no chains in the hair. Because this hair does not fold.
