Meet Boston, the 4-Month-Old Going Viral for His Long, Spiky Hair

His mom says it stops people in their tracks and always causes a stir.

Last summer, we met baby Chanco, the seven-month-old who went viral for having a luscious head of hair. Today, we're here to introduce you to Boston, a four-month-old from Australia who's making major waves for having long, spiky red hair at such a young age. Boston's viral moment was picked up by news.com.au after his mom, Tara Simich, posted a series of photos showcasing his amazing (and massive) mop of hair.

"It stops people in their tracks [and] causes a stir wherever he goes," Simich tells the Australian publication. "Most people are in complete shock because he’s so little, they can’t believe the hair is his. But it is," she explains. Naturally, people on social media can't get enough of baby Boston's hair, either. For every photo of him Simich posts on her Instagram, there are countless comments ranging from, "Oh my that hair is priceless Tara 😮" and "Wow, it doesn't get any cuter! ❤️❤️ That hair is to die for!" to "New screen saver!" and "This has made my week!!!"

Simich says her son has had a lot of hair since he was born in December, which you can clearly see in her birth announcement post on Instagram. "Hair exactly like Dads 🤭," she wrote in the reveal caption. Now, at just over four months, Boston's hair is even bigger and better than it was before. People are especially obsessed with the way his hair sticks straight up, almost like a porcupine (the cutest one we've ever seen, of course).

Thanks to Boston, our obsession with babies who have full heads of hair has grown even stronger. Check out more adorable photos of him and his hair in all its glory, below.
