A mother who refers to herself as the CEO of ‘cool moms’ says she’s in a league of her own after allowing her 5-year-old child to dye her hair blonde.
Demi Lucy May Engemann documented her young daughter’s trip to the salon on TikTok and that article has been getting views ever since in the millions category.
Just the thought of seeing a young child bleach her hair had so many moms in a state of absolute dilemma. But this new ‘cool mom’ was just in a different league altogether.
She spoke in detail about how it was her daughter’s idea to bleach her hair and then dye it the shade of pink! Yes, a 5-year-old was allowed to do that and even skip one day of school to accompany her mom to the salon for this adventure.
The viral images posted on TikTok show the young child smiling bright and Maude skipping school for the appointment. She is seen smiling in a bright manner while getting her tresses highlighted.
The young girl reportedly couldn’t wait to get a glimpse of her final look and when the foils are removed from her hair, she starts clapping in the cutest manner.
Today, the video has gone viral with nearly 9.7 million views. And while some people are calling it out as the sweetest moment ever, others are expressing their dire concern over the matter.
Plenty of critics are accusing the mom of foisting her own beauty standards on the little girl. And that includes damaging her hair along the way. But the mom tried to justify the behavior by adding it was all her daughter’s idea.
For that, the mom has gotten even more criticism for allowing such a young girl to make decisions of her own at the age of 5. Hence, they felt that when she got older, it wouldn’t have such a great effect on her because upbringing matters a lot and shows how the child was raised.
