Last year before school started I had my 10 1/2 yr old granddaughters hair highlighted. She has brown hair and it looked kind of mousy and plain. We got very subtle and light highlights in blond. She loved them. They looked so good and really raised her self confidence level.

We are doing it again this summer right before school starts. This year we are going to get the highlights done a little heavier. It does not hurt anything and makes her feel much more confident when the school year starts to have such a nice new cut and highlights.

Tell your daughter to stop talking about it to her friends. The mother is out of line telling your daughter she would look horrible. What kind of person says that to a child? I could not call the mother because I would not be very nice about her negative comments to my daughter. It may be better to just leave it alone. (I think she is afraid if your daughter gets highlights then her daughter will want them)

Get the highlights done quietly and maybe subtlety the 1st time, maybe heavier the next time. When she gets it done she can show off the highlights with confidence.

and your point is...

Its not a big deal, the other Mom is probably just jealous. People are crazy.

I let my daughter dye her hair for a few tyears now and she is 12......I think its their hair, they have to live with how it looks....and its self expression. Its not hurting anyone and hair color is fairly safe for hair anymore...so its not even hurting her hair.....let her have fun. Dont worry about the other moms.

Jealous b*tch.

Trust me, there's nothing wrong with it all. It'd make her feel pretty, so you might as well let her be happy.

Tell your daughter to not care about what this other lady has to say..what matters is your opinion cuz your her mother and her fathers opinion.

I dont think its young at all.

I've seen toddlers with maybe 4 streaks in their hair.

It looks cute. Just make sure you treat her hair so that it doesn't dry up

for starters, its not the other mothers place to tell your daughter what she will look like.. that's rude.. and secondly.. there is nothing wrong with your daughter getting highlights or lowlights.. personal preference. i gave my 11 year old son blonde streaks in his hair last school year (6th grade) and he wasnt hte only studen his age and even younger to have their hair highlighted or color treated..

i think your daughter will look fine.. she's a maturing girl and it'll add charachter.. if she wants it done.. sounds like that other mom is telling your daughter not to, because she wont let her own daughter get her hair colored.. what a foe.

12 is really young to start chemically changing her hair.

What message does that send to a young girl, that her hair color is not pretty enough?

She has plenty of time later to do things like this.

Granted, it's a common thing to do now. Use your own judgment. Ignore the other mom. She is just expressing her opinion, and she probably doesn't want her daughter to ask for highlights.

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

you should mention something to her

something along the lines of "By any chance do you know what you may have said to my daughter the other day? When she came home she was very upset and said that you had offended her"

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

I think telling her it will look horrible is harsh. As long as they arent too drastic, i think its a great idea. I had to wait to get mine but when i did, it was great. But i definitely suggest only a few foil highlights instead of somethng big like full cap or full foil highlights.

The mother has a right to her opinon so just ignore her. It is fine to get it professionally highlighted but I am not sure I would spend that much money when she is only 12. Will your daughter be paying part of the cost?

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

My son dyes his hair and he's 13. Whats the big deal. Also pick and choose your battles.

Good luck!

No, it's not too young. I know some mothers that let their daughters get their hair highlighted at 11 and 10. It all depends on whether YOU want her to get her hair highlighted or not, not someone elses. It will not make you look bad as a mother. If I had a daughter, I'd let her do it. I'd rather her hair highlighted rather than be out doing worse things. I wouldn't call the mother, but tell your daughter to tell her what she really feels about getting her hair highlighted.

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

there is no adverse health risk with getting your hair highlighted. it is a myth started by whomever, the religious right or something. and if your daughter goes off the deep end and ends up on girls gone wild videos, the color of her hair wont be the reason. tell the mother of the friend to lick your scrote, and she will never talk to you again

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

dont call the mother, everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion. if you think your daughter is mature enough... then let her.

my daughter is 13 and in the 8th grade now... last year she asked for highlights also. i told her ok, ONLY if she receives straight "A's" on her report card. she brought home 3 As, 2 Bs, and a C. so, there was NO visit to the salon.

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

It doesn't sound worth it to call her. It will be a lesson for your daughter in ignoring rude comments from people who can't mind their own business. As long as you're okay with it as her mom I don't see the problem. I've seen highlights on a six year old!

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

no it is def. not young at all

i dyed/highlighted/permed and did all those things to my hair when i was younger than 12

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

She is just green with envy. Your daughter is probably prettier. I think it is between you and the Mom and the friend is probably embarrassed that her mom is doing that.

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

As long as I've been coloring my hair, I've never done it for any reason other than "Ohhh, I'd like to be a red-head", or "I'd like to be blonde for a little while!" Hair coloring is fun, and so long as your daughter realizes that her appearance is unimportant, I don't think there's any reason why it would be "bad" for your daughter for color her hair, especially to just add a few subtle highlights.

I would tell my daughter that the other mother doesn't know what she's talking about, and if I were to hear the other mother say something like that, I would confront her about it and tell her that it is not her place to say things like that to my child.

i can't believe that her friends mother is saying such awful things! i dont know if i would call her, it might make some friendship problems, but have a talk with your daughter to make sure she knows how petty that woman is being. having your daughters hair hightlighted at 12 years old isnt a huge deal, its not like you are letting her get a tatoo! i'm sure that your daughters hair will look great, and i doubt anyother mother will see this as a problem, especially since you are having her pay for it.

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

personally i think its awful letting your child dye her hair at this age!! anyone who has dyed their hair before knows that it leaves it dry and awful looking. her hair will never be baby soft again. shame on you. your probably the kind of mom thats gonna start her on b/c pills on this age too. oh of course as long as she pays... :( good for the other mother saying something. yes she should say it to you...but shes probably saying it so her own child doesn't get mixed up with yours!

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?

thats not too young. ive been getting my hair highlighted since i was 11. when i went into 5th grade. just make sure they arent to noticiable you know? it should look fine if they are light highlights and dont listen to that other mother. shes gay

My Daughter Is getting Her hair highlighted she is 12?
