Hi everyone, I'm not new to the site, I just don't post much. Anyway tell me if I'm being childish about this. Ok so I'm a mother of 3 to include a 4 month old, a wife, work full time and attend school. So with that said I've been putting braids with extension in my 4 year old daughter's hair since April. Her hair is 100% natural. Anyway, I've been doing the crown and glory method with and but I only keep them in for 4 to 6 weeks at a time. Anyway, I sent her and her big brother to my parents house for the summer and to help my step mom out I got her hair rebraided before she left. Well af 6 weeks my stepmom took out her braids and took her to the salon to get her hair braided. After looking at her hair the stylist told her I'm gonna have to put a relaxer in her hair when she gets older because it's too thick and I'm not gonna be able to manage it. Before she could say anything else I told her I wasn't putting any relaxer in my daughter's hair. So she get's smart talking bout well I'm just telling you what the proffesional said and goes on to say how the stylist is educated in her field. She even went as far to say if I keep it natural it's gonna break. I told her no, and that her hair will break more if it was ralax. I got so mad with her. Then she (step mom) started saying how my daughter's hair is so nice and thick. Then in the same breath turn around and say if I keep it natural it's gonna break off. What the heck? I guess I'm mainly mad because of how she talked about natural hair like it's the worst thing ever. So am I being childish about this?
