Either to make a fashion statement or to give natural hair a much-needed peace for a while, Saint wore cornrow styles too. Six cornrow braids to the back he wore to the soccer match while cheering for Cristiano Ronaldo suited him perfectly. Not to mention how cute tiny braids towards the nape looked.
The new style turned to be more controversial though. Some fans expressed surprise or disapproval regarding Saint’s drastic hair change, citing bleaching hair at his young age. â8 and you bleach his hair,â âYou DONT bleach kidâs hair,” âitâs bad for their hair. Everyone knows thisâ â some of the followers voice their disaproval of using bleach of kidâs hair in a super clear manner.
Still, dedicated supporters swiftly stepped in to defend Kimâs decision, saying that experimenting with hair color is a common occurrence among kids and adolescents. More so, many attributed Saint’s style to his soccer fandom and likening it to the iconic Neymar look.
Notably, Saint had previously paid homage to Neymar by dressing as a zombie version of the soccer star for Halloween, suggesting a deep admiration for the athlete’s persona.
The overall response to Saint’s transformation leaned mostly towards support, with numerous commenters acknowledging the resemblance to Neymar’s distinctive hairstyle and dubbing it “Neymar baby hair.” At the same time, lots of commenters say he looks more like his daddy with this new haircut.
This shift in Saint’s look sparks curiosity about whether his celebrity parents would support further exploration of bolder hairstyles and hair colors in the future. We, as hairstyle experts, do not doubt that hair is getting enough TLC in the Kardashian family, so the health of bleached hair will sure be supported with the proper products and aftercare. Still, if you have a curious kid looking to experiment with the same style, weâd rather warn you against any hasty decisions and similar âbirthday presentsâ until you are 100 percent sure you, as a parent, are ready to commit to the maintenance.
In essence, Saint West’s daring hairstyle transformation not only captures attention but also initiates discussions about male hair bleaching, which is a hot trend in men’s hairstyles now. More so, whether good parents should let their boys give it a try and how early is not too early.
