A British toddler is one of only 100 people in the world with ‘uncombable hair syndrome’.
Layla Davis, three, has been nicknamed ‘Fluffy’ for her frizzy blonde mop, which cannot be combed flat.
She was diagnosed with uncombable hair syndrome (UHS) - a condition characterised by dry, frizzy hair which defies attempts to tame it.
UHS develops in childhood, often between infancy and age three but can appear as late as twelve.
Children who develop it tend to have light-coloured hair - and there are only around 100 cases in the world.
