Her thick mane has made her the newest face of the brand and she has also appeared in Japan’s ad campaign of the hair-care brand. The ad campaign encourages women to express themselves. Chanco’s mother says she is quite surprised by the reaction her daughter is getting. Having received praises from so many countries, she says she is really proud of her little one.

Chanco made her internet debut when her mother first posted a picture on the social media account last May. Since then, the hair diva has garnered a huge following on Instagram while also appearing on Marie Claire, Allure and People magazine.

It’s her story in People that caught the hair-product brand’s attention, and the rest is for you to see.

We often see babies being born with soft wispy hair or peach fuzz. Some babies do have thicker or longer hair than others. But rarely do we get to see a baby with a thick and long mane like Chanco. Her mother says that baby Chanco came out of her womb with a full head of hair.

However, there are many people who question if the hair is real. Some people think it’s a wig, while there are others who believe it might be hair extensions or the magic of photoshop. But it’s real, people! Looking at the pictures is sure to leave you in awe.

Want To Know The Secret?

To those who are wondering what is the secret behind baby Chanco’s impressive mane, Mami Kano says it’s just brushing and letting her hair be. So, basically, it’s just in her genes.

Chanco’s mom says that she wishes to keep her daughter’s hair long. She also says she wants to try some new hairstyles on Chanco’s hair in the future.

We cannot wait to see how this little Rapunzel’s luscious locks will look when she is a teenager. Who knows, she might have already made a career for herself in modeling, thanks to her impressive hair.
