AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian is definitely not here for people who like to criticize her parenting skill. The mother of three was recently slammed after sharing on Twitter a picture of her daughter North kissing Kanye West.
While the picture was indeed sweet, many were concerned about the fact that the little girl was seen sporting long flowing brown locks instead of her natural curls. "Don't straighten her hair too much it'll ruin her curls," one user said, along with a pained emoji. "I did that to my hair and ruined it but I'm finally getting my naturally curly hair back."

Kim noticed the tweet and decided to shut down the critic, saying that she didn't straighten North's hair all the time. "She is allowed twice a year, on her birthday and birthday party!" the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star wrote back. "This pic was taken back in June on her bday."

This is not the first time Kim has been criticized for the same issue. The cosmetics mogul received backlash for straightening her daughter's hair for her birthday party last month. However, Kim defended herself by saying that her daughter had asked for the hairstyle.
"She wanted straight hair and I straightened her hair one time," she said in an interview. "It's funny, because online everyone thought that we pressed it and did this whole thing. It was just a flat iron. I even read that she had extensions on! She has curly hair, so when you straighten her hair, it's gonna look really long. I can't believe people didn't get that."
"Sometimes you just have to tune it out! It was her birthday and all she wanted was to try to have her hair straightened," Kim continued, adding that she had no intention of making it a regular thing. "I'm not gonna let her straighten her hair all the time, but if she wants it that way two or three days a year, then that's fine with me."
