Not long ago, a story emerged online about the birth of an unusual girl in the Vieira family. Talita, a woman, gave birth to her daughter, Maya. The peculiarity of the baby at birth was that her hair contained numerous strands of gray hair.
This phenomenon didn’t come out of nowhere. There’s an explanation for it. Talita herself grew up with half-gray hair. She inherited this trait from her mother. The woman suspected that the same would happen with her daughter, and she was right. This phenomenon even has a name—piebaldism. It arises due to a malfunction in melanin production, which is responsible for hair and skin color. Therefore, at times, they may appear as if they’ve lost their color.
The most interesting thing is that it’s practically impossible to dye such hair. Everything quickly washes out and regains its usual shades. Talita suffered from this for a long time. She endured mockery in kindergarten, school, and college. To overcome depression, she sought help from a psychologist. As a result, Talita learned to accept herself and live with this unusual condition.
Regarding her daughter, she adheres to the same policy. From an early age, the mother plans to tell Maya that her gray hair is not a sentence or a reason for mockery but a unique trait given from above. Whether the mother can convey this thought to the girl, of course, only time will tell.
Meanwhile, the baby is growing. Maya is now two years old. The mother and father have vibrant photoshoots with the girl, publishing unusual shots online. Sometimes the girl appears as the character Cruella from the movie “101 Dalmatians,” and other times she poses as Rogue from the movie “X-Men.”
At the moment, the child does not feel uncomfortable about the grayness present in her hair. Talita’s followers express their wishes in the comments for it to remain so, despite the child’s growing up and changing perspectives on life.
