I am 21, and my mom will NOT let me leave the house unless my hair is the way SHE wants it! What do I do?
Hi. I am about to go crazy because my mom just won't listen to me. She thinks that my hair is too ugly and she wants me to wear clip in extensions. My boyfriend has told me not to. He likes to run his fingers through my hair. He hates them. My mom won't let me leave the house without them and she says too bad for him. Obviously, I'm angry. Before putting them on, she teases my hair so I can't take them off because after she teases it, it WILL look bad! Yet, it's embarrassing when I'm getting it on and he's like "what is this?" and one day he's gonna stay with a strand in his hand. Help! Btw, I'm 21

We have answered this question before. Your 21 an adult. Tell your mother to back off. It is as simple as that. Your mother is trying to control you and you are enabling her by allowing her to do so. Just stand up to her. Let her have her tantrum or fake attack. Just go about your business and let her be. She will get the message as soon as you stop enabling her.
The problem is starting to be you and not her.

This is getting silly.
You've been given lots of good advice on how to handle you mother.
What is stopping you? Are you in danger? Are you afraid your mother is going to hurt you? Why can't you stand up for yourself like everyone has told you that you need too?

Honey, you're 21! Legally she can't control you. You need to stand up for yourself (I know it may be hard) and I don't know the situation or how your mother is. Though, she can't tell you how to look! Tell her it is YOUR life and YOUR hair and you will look the way you want to. I mean the only thing I can see as an option is not letting her touch your hair or you. Is it possible to move out if shes troubling you this much? I mean you are 21. :/
Sorry if this isn't too helpful, I really don't see a lot that can be done, except you physically not letting her touch your hair L/

Tell your mother you are 21, you are no longer a child and you can decide how you want to wear your hair. Your mother has some serious problems if she doesn't love you for how you look now.
