Baby Chanco’s mother, Mami Kano, would share photos of her adorable baby on social media for her friends to see.
“I started sharing pictures on Instagram because she was my first baby, and everyone kept asking me how hair baby girl is doing every day,” Mami Kano revealed.

But the baby’s big hair would soon become popular, not just Mami Kano’s friends but also with other netizens on social media. Many could not get over the fact that this lovely baby’s hair is so voluminous at this age. After all, a lot of babies are bald or have really short hair for many months after birth.
She had only celebrated her first birthday, but this young girl is already a big star! She even has more than 350k followers on Instagram! Wow.

And while it was great that this baby has already become a popular face (and hair!) on social media, her fame would soon bring her fortune as she landed a deal with Pantene. Wow. She’s certainly the youngest model for the popular international shampoo brand.

“Everyone all over the world told me I look cute. Well, almost everyone. I wonder if that’s because I look a little different? But my mummy didn’t mind, because my mummy loves my hair,” the video said.
“Despite looking different from other babies, baby Chanco is loved worldwide for her naturally thick hair. If everyone can learn to love their differences, this world may become a much nicer place.”
The video was also quite sweet as it was narrated by television presenter Sato Kondo who, despite the social pressure of looking young on TV decided to let her hair turn grey naturally, instead of dyeing it.
