Sixty-two Epic Heads of Baby Hair might sound like a lot but there have been hundreds of submissions so far on facebook and instagram and I agonized over cutting them down for this post. This is tough stuff, people. You guys have some crazy genes that birth some truly ridiculous heads of hair.
I worked overtime naming their hairstyles (No dinner for you, Mazzy!) and I'm finally ready to post. From Donald Trump to Bob Dylan to Carrot Top, I truly have something for everybody. (No Rachel Green though; I know she's out there!)
I put the top 100 contenders in a new album on facebook, which includes the photos below, and I will continue adding to it from new submissions through the week. There are a few great heads of hair that I didn't post today because I couldn't come up with a hairstyle name to do them justice. They'll go in the album too and I'd love for you all to help me come up with appropriate names. It's worth noting that last year's winner (aka Annette Funicello) was originally shown with a "?" over her head.
Speaking of last year's winner, anybody curious what Epic Baby Hair looks like one year later?
This was Sophia one year ago…
And this is Sophia now…
Epic Toddler Hair in FULL SWING!
I am so glad I am not in the room when Sophia's mom is brushing those curls out. I can almost hear the screaming from here. Let's hope one day Sophia lands a commercial contract with a shampoo company so that it will all be worth it.
Whaddayasay, Baby Magic??? Need a new model??
Alright. Below are my favorite photo submissions so far. I will continue to collect submissions up until the last week of July.
The winner of Epic Baby Hair gets a $750 cash gift card plus a Baby Magic gift set, including their best-selling Original Baby Scented Hair & Body Wash in the pink bottle. All finalists who make it to the top ten will get a Baby Magic Gift Set too.
Baby Magic's bath and skincare products are hypoallergenic, smell just like a baby should and have been used for generations at bathtime and bedtime. If you want to thank them for ponying up such an awesome prize, follow Baby Magic on facebook.
If your baby has an epic head of hair, you can still enter up until the last week of July!
Just upload your pics to the Mommy Shorts facebook page or post them to #epicbabyhair on Instagram. I'll be counting new photo submissions only, so if you have an old photo on Instagram you'd like to enter, please re-upload and repost to the hashtag. All #epicbabyhair entries on Instagram must tag and follow both@mommyshorts and @originalbabymagic in the main caption to win.
If you are submitting through facebook, you must follow both the Mommy Shorts fanpage and the Baby Magic fanpage to enter. Just post your photo right on the top of my fanpage.
Can't wait to see what other ridiculous heads of baby hair are out there.
GOOD LUCK!

Who is your early favorite to win?
The Guy I Dated in Camp, should be The Gary Oldman in Fifth Estate…. Better title.
Sorry, that’s fifth element staring Bruce Willis
EPIC is right! I loved them all, but I think my early favorites are the Alice Brady & the Zoolander! So great!
I love Flock of Seagulls!
I had to go back up and look, but you are totally right, that is Gary Oldman! 😀
Okay this definitely had me laughing out loud…which was counter productive to getting my youngest (the scribble) to bed….but so worth it! I’m totally bias towards my little one’s epic hair but the handlebar mustache is a close second!! Ha!
I totally vote for chia pet!!
Zoolander was my favorite. Looked like my daughter did 20 years ago!! However, I think Ashley Judd is GORGEOUS!
@mommyshorts, are we allowed to upload more than one picture of our child?
I don’t know which is better: the babies and their crazy hair or the titles you gave them. Holy crap I am dying laughing!
Alice from the Brady Bunch and The Zoolander are my favorites so far!
Thanks, that was the first thing that came to mind when I saw that.
I love the joe Pesci. Too cute!
A thousand times yes
The Something about Mary…I died laughing. I also love the Alice:)
Your names for the hairstyles are the best thing ever.
Well done, Ilana. Bravo.
If last year’s winner was in the contest this year, she would be “The Lorde.”
Do our profiles need to be public?
Yes, they do. Your photo won’t show up in the hashtag if you are private and I will have no idea that you entered. I usually recommend that people switch to public for the duration of the contest and then switch back to private when it’s over.
Love the names, love the art guy, principle, but I think the winner will have to be Donald Trump caught in the wind.
LOVE LOVE LOVE. How did you get so many awesome entries?
I vote for Elvis or Hovercraft, both are adorable. Beautiful little girl!
The Diana Ross struck me as Bruno Mars. These are FANTASTIC.
The high school principal should be the George Costanza. That is what my daughter had when she was born. 😀
Donald Trump in a windstorm- gold!
I don’t know what’s better…the pics or the names you gave them…absolutely hilarious
Five alarm fire could also be known as Heat Miser from Year Without A Santa Clause.
that was fun to see good job could we have more…
The names kill me..laughing so hard
I am going to straight away grasp a person’s feed while i are unable to locating the e-mail subscription link as well as e-newsletter assistance. Have any kind of? I implore you to well then, i’ll recognize in order that I may join. Thanks.
[…] heads of baby hair continue to pour in. I didn’t think I could get any better entries than last week, but I was wrong. There were so many great photos, I couldn’t just let them live in a […]
