[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow it is some twisted logic to argue that someone who doesn’t think it’s appropriate to spend $150 or more on a temporary hair treatment for a teenager is some kind of “beauty is sin” fundamentalist.

I just think that’s too much money to spend a hair treatment for a child. I’d happily treat my teen to a salon treat, but salon color is so expensive and I no from experience it can be addictive. I used box dye at that age and got good at it, and I’d happily help my kid with one of those for a little confidence boost before school. Or spend a little extra on clothes are a fun bag— I love beauty and fashion and absolutely use it as a tool to help my confidence on the first day of a new job or something. I don’t think beauty is sin!

But there’s a huge difference between “yes of course we can do something special with your hair for school” and “of course, let’s spend $300+ on a cut snd color that you are probably going to want to do again in 6 months because now you think this is what is required for a confidence boost.”
Come on. There’s obviously an in between.[/quote]

If you can’t afford it just say so.[/quote]

+1  The question isn't about cost.  The question is whether you'd 'allow' your DD to get highlights. [/quote]
