Curly-Haired Graduation Showdown

Our curly-haired protagonist has always had a love-hate relationship with her hair, especially since her mom made her relax it for years. Now, with graduation approaching, her mom suggests she get her hair relaxed again to save time and effort. But our heroine knows that when her hair is straight, it just doesn’t feel like her. ‍♀️ So she says no, but her mom won’t back down. Finally, after her mom calls her ‘ugly and frumpy,’ she snaps and threatens to uninvite her mom to the ceremony. Now, the women in her family are giving her the silent treatment, while her uncle and grandfather are supportive but think she could have handled it differently. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this curly-haired conundrum…
