Just when we thought our infant daughters had successfully eluded the fashionistas, we discovered Baby Bangs, the most questionable accessory to be dangled before style-savvy mommies since those scary baby high heels.
WHAT?! Yup, a hair piece designed just for little girls who’s moms are waiting breathlessly for their own hair to grow in. A wig. A toupee of sorts. Made of real hair. This takes the idea of those cute little bows on a stretchy hair band to a whole new creepy level.
Hi sweetie … can you say ‘I’m just not cute enough’? To be followed a few years later by ‘I’m just not pretty enough’, and then ‘I’m just not sexy enough’? OK, the middle-aged Mamas may not be right on the cutting edge of all pop-culture trends, but this is ridiculous.
Hey … you out there in fashion land … stop sending our girl children the message that appearance is everything. And that looking older is better. And that childhood is all about striving for the next cool, edgy, grown-up thing. We’re tired of it! Let’s worry more about what’s growing inside the head, and less about what’s (not) growing outside.
CRASH! … That was the sound of us falling off our soapbox …
