A five-year-old girl from Tel Aviv is gaining widespread attention on Instagram, where she has amassed nearly 94,000 followers, thanks to her stunning, long dark curls.
Mia Aflalo, known for her striking hair and radiant green eyes, has captivated fans with her photos showcasing her natural beauty. Her cheerful smile and eye-catching features have made her a rising star in the world of modeling.
Mia’s fame grew after being featured by Israeli hairstylist Sagi Dahari, who has styled her for various photoshoots. Her pictures even appeared on the British Vogue website. Dahari, who refers to Mia as “Princess Mia”, praises her for being easygoing and a joy to work with, noting that she remains patient and smiles throughout the process, avoiding any complaints.
On her Instagram, Mia can be seen in a variety of looks, from Hollywood waves paired with a red dress to a ballet-inspired outfit with her hair tied in a bow. One of her hairstylist’s posts compares her to Jennifer Lopez, showcasing a similar half-ponytail hairstyle.
While Mia’s beauty has earned her fans, her quick rise to fame has sparked mixed reactions. Some critics question whether such exposure is appropriate for a young child, with one follower expressing concern over the potential dangers of social media and the risks to her mental health. Others, however, have praised her, calling her “stunning” and admiring her thick, beautiful hair.
Despite the debate, Mia continues to charm her growing audience with her innocent smile and gorgeous locks. See how she looks now below…
Coach becomes an internet sensation with heartwarming gesture at youth basketball game
Educators are vital pillars of our community, yet their contributions are often underestimated. It takes a special person to dedicate themselves to teaching, mentoring and motivating young minds.
Jonathan Oliver, a physical education teacher at WG Nunn Elementary in Valdosta, Georgia, is one example of this commitment. He recently earned recognition for a touching moment of kindness during a children’s basketball game.
When kindergarten teacher Kristen Paulk asked for help with her ponytail, Oliver didn’t hesitate. He knelt on a basketball to be at eye level with her and carefully tied her pigtails to make sure her hair didn’t fall into her face. This tender gesture, captured on video, was shared on YouTube by Kandice Anderson, a fellow teacher
The video, aptly titled “When Your Job Goes Beyond Teaching!” quickly went viral and captured the hearts of many. It eventually caught the attention of Good Morning America, which interviewed the 34-year-old father of three.
“I was surprised by the attention because that’s exactly what we do,” Oliver told Good Morning America, unaware of the recording. “We want students to feel at home and loved. For me, wearing a ponytail just helped.”
Oliver mentioned that while Kristen’s request was for a ponytail, his hairstyling expertise was otherwise quite limited. “If she had asked for something else, I would have said, ‘You better ask your mom,’” he joked.
Kristen’s mother, Miyah Cleckley, expressed her appreciation for Oliver’s gesture. “I always know that Kristen is in excellent hands with him. It was especially touching because my husband helps us a lot with our daughters’ hair, as we have five girls and a son.”
There are many stories of teachers going the extra mile, and Jonathan Oliver’s story is a beautiful example of everyday heroes in education.
