The Spanish striker was given time off this weekend to be by his sick baby son’s side following more health complication and posts emotional tributes
A NINE-week-old baby’s huge hair has been stopping shoppers in the tracks.
Junior Cox-Noon’s bulging barnet has been turning heads and his mum says it now takes her two-hours to do the weekly shop because people stop to say hello.
The infant seems to enjoy the attention with mum Chelsea Noon, 32, telling the MailOnline he cries if she tries to put a hat on him.
Junior’s wild hair has earned him the nickname Baby Bear.
The youngster, born at Brighton General Hospital on July 20, has to have his locks blow dried by his hairdresser mum because they would take too long to dry naturally.
Chelsea told the MailOnline: “When I take him with me on the weekly shop in Asda everyone does a double-take and says, ‘Oh my God, look at the baby’s hair,’ and they have to touch it.
“He doesn’t seem to mind and gets a little a smirk on his face.
“People say to me are you going to cut it, but it’s too unique so I’m going to leave it as it is.”
Chelsea said her other sons, six-year-old Mitchell and Preston, four, did not share Junior’s hairiness at birth.
But, Chelsea did suffer heartburn while pregnant – which is an old wives tale predicts will mean a hairy baby.
