Not a Zoe Stan, but lurk here sometimes in addition to the Inthefrow thread. Whilst extensions are obviously not the moat practical, given that neither Zoe nor Alfie have jobs which require them to clock in or leave the house, I'm not sure the idea of her spending some time each day on herself while the baby's dad looks after it is so unreasonable. It's possible to mother a child and do other things, not least when the other primary caregiver is available all the time too.
It was more the way Zoe said she’d just give the baby to anyone to watch for an hour when she wanted to do her hair. It was phrased it a very odd way and definitely seemed like a naive way of thinking about taking care of a baby. Also if she’s planning to breastfeed it’s not always possible to just give someone the baby to watch so she can spend hours on her hair.
However, the extensions are also impractical for other reasons:
1. When breastfeeding or being held many babies pull their mums hair, which is painful for normal hair but also baby could pull extensions out which is also damaging to hair.
2. Babies vomit and spit up all the times she’s going to have hair full of sick if she continues to leave it down and in front of her at all times and it takes her over an hour to wash it everytime she needs to get the sick out… and as she’s got a phobia of sick she can’t guarantee someone js always going to be around to take the baby for that long and I don’t see her willing to leave it in there.
3. She’s about to be heavily pregnant in the height of summer with unnecessarily long hair which is also so thick. That’s just not comfortable.
4. Having the maintence done to keep the extensions healthy and fresh honestly can take like over half a day at a time every 6 weeks.
5. They also just looks stupid on her.
