It's easy to see why Junior's family have nicknamed him 'baby bear'. The gorgeous bub is just eight weeks old, but he boasts an incredible head of hair.

His proud mum, 32-year-old Chelsea Noon, says that passersby are often taken aback at her little one's locks. In fact, the mum of three says that she is often bombarded by questions from curious strangers.

"Usually it takes me about 40 minutes to do my weekly shop in Asda, and now it takes me two hours," she told the Mirror.

"Everyone stops and says: 'Oh my god look at the baby's hair' and then the next person will say 'he's got so much hair!'"

It's not unusual for babies to be born with hair, but in most cases it soon falls out. But Junior seems to holding on to his adorable bouffant.

"When he was born it was quite thick but everybody said it would stop and that a lot of it would fall out," she said.

"He hasn't lost any - there's none in the cot, none in his little chair or the pram, it's literally just growing and it grows out not down, so it sticks up."

Even medical professionals are surprised by Junior's hair. "Doctors say they are amazed and have never seen a baby with so much hair in all the time they have been working. Everyone's shocked," says Noon.

While some parents might be tempted to trim such unruly hair, Noon, who used to be a hairdresser, says she has no plans to chop Junior's bouffant.

"I definitely don't want to cut it, I want to see how long it actually does grow out. I don't know where his hair has come from it's like a big ball of candyfloss," she says.

Junior doesn't just have big hair; he has a big personality to match. "We call him 'Baby Bear' because he looks like a little bear but when he's angry he looks like a little gremlin," Noon explains.

"He's got a little smirk he puts on, and he gives a little cry when he wants to be picked up - and then you pick him up and he gives you a look as if to say: 'Yes, I got my own way'."
