Unsolicited opinions are no stranger to you if you have a family.

Even the most privacy-focused family members will have something to say at one time or another.

Check out why this woman feels bad about not aiming to please her family.

WIBTA if I refused to cut my hair?

Yesterday my mom made a comment about how I should take 6 inches off my hair and the rest of the family agrees with her.

My hair is about 32 inches long and I have been growing it out since 2023, with a short break for a while in 2024.

She’s at a loss about why they care.

My hair is dark down in colour, thin and straight. I have never had any issues like dandruff, damage or hair loss.

I take care of the occasional split ends by using hair dusting.

I wash it twice a week, using hair mask once a week, hair serum every day and rosemary water as a scalp tonic.

I never use heat styling.

Her routines don’t provide an explanation either.

It’s not like I hog the shower while washing my hair; it takes max 20-25 mins and it is not interfering with my daily life.

I see no reason to get it cut but I can’t stop thinking about what my mom said.

WBITA if I straight up told her no the next time she brings it up?

Here is what folks are saying.

I agree!

Trimming helps my split ends.

That’s harsh. Wow.

I have fine, short hair, but it’s a bit wavy. We’re all different!
