A MUM has come under fire after she dyed her young daughter’s hair blue.
Mother-of-two Taylor Wall explained that her little one had asked her for a ”Elsa”-inspired hair makeover – but instead of the iconic platinum blonde mane, Taylor decided to choose the colour blue.

The parent, from the US, revealed that she didn’t have any hesitations after her child’s request, as she wasn’t ”in school yet”.
The dye, which she purchased from the popular US retailer Sally, was also not as harsh as the regular products from the high street.
Taylor said in the now-viral video: ”Before y’all come for me, this is a plant-based hair dye, so it is not toxic for my little girl.”
As an extra precaution the mother also made sure to not accidentally apply the semi-permanent product onto the child’s scalp.
”I chose to go with purple and blue, and I was really hoping it would give her like a prism effect but I think the blue was way too royal.
”She did so good being still, I am so proud of her. She really wanted that Elsa hair,” the mum was praising her little blonde girl.
Unfortunately for Taylor and her daughter, the hair didn’t quite turn out as they had hoped for – but that didn’t stop trolls from slamming the mum.
A whopping 700 people of the 2million viewers flocked to comments, where many disagreed with Taylor’s decision to dye her child’s hair at such a young age.
One insisted that instead of resorting to the semi-permanent dye, she could’ve chosen other alternatives.
”U could’ve just used clip ins or tape pieces.”
Someone else, meanwhile, thought Taylor was letting the child grow up too quickly.
”Let kids be kids smh [shake my head], this is sad.”
”Just buy her some fun wigs,” another critic advised.
How can I fix dye damaged hair?
Have you taken the dye too far? There are some ways to fix this WITHOUT chopping the whole lot off.
Give it a trim: we’re not saying you have to cut the whole lot off, but you should trim the worst offending split ends.
Ditch the heat products: stop straightening/curling your hair immediately.
Stop dying your hair: step away from the bleach, and starting using ammonia-free semi-permanent dyes for now.
Switch to sulfate free: use kinder, sulfate-free shampoos and conditions to repair your damaged hair. And don’t shampoo more than twice a week if possible, because this strips damaged hair and makes it brittle.
Treatment masks: use one of these hair treatment masks, listed below, to rejuvenate your locks.
Sun protection: cover your damaged hair when sunbathing or swimming in a chlorinated pool, to prevent further damage.
Eat your hair healthy: make sure you drink lots of water, eat Omega 3 fatty acids found in salmon, walnuts and flaxseeds, and green veg like spinach, kale, carrots and avocado. Some pre-natal supplements also promote hair growth.
”There’s these things called color hair clip in!! She’s too young for those chemicals in her scalp!! It’s not just hair it’s toxin in her scalp!!” a viewer slammed Taylor.
Luckily for the mum, who later hit back at the online keyboard warriors, there was also plenty of support.
Responding to one of the negative comments, the mother-of-two said: ”To be quite honest, I passed my state board and know all about the dangers.
”I made sure not to get in on her scalp as you can see in the video but that’s also why I went with a nontoxic semi.”
A viewer wrote: ”I’m sorry the fun police found your vid but, I love that you are allowing her express herself.”
Another went on: ”oh my people…it’s HAIR. it’s not ruined. it will wash out, fade whatever.
”My mum was a hairdresser and if we wanted something like this it happened!”

DANNY Jones’ wife has issued a “final warning” after a new clip of her husband and Maura Higgins at a hotel was revealed.
In new footage, the pair are seen gazing at each other at the five-star Nobu Hotel — which they visited soon after their 3am Brits smooch.

His wife Georgia Horsley is now said to be holding “crisis talks” again, with a source from Danny’s camp saying it’s time for the pop star to be “honest” and publicly address what happened in a bid to save his marriage.
“Everyone would understand why Danny and his wife have been quiet” they told the Mirror.
“They are likely working through various discussions from the first video that was released alone. With this second video, Danny needs to now speak out.”
They explained that single Maura is receiving most of the “backlash”, while married man Danny is getting away with his actions.
The source insisted it’s only right for the All About You hitmaker to “take some accountability” now before it gets worse.
“Who knows if another video will emerge, but being honest is now the only way that this has a chance of resolving itself,” they added.
Maura today broke her cover and revealed she’s jetting to Los Angeles for an “exciting shoot”.
Maura shared a snap from her business class seat on a British Airways flight leaving London Heathrow.
She had a what appeared to be a glass of white wine in front of her and headphones at the ready for the long haul flight.
It comes after we revealed she continued partying with Danny until 6am after their kiss at the Universal Brits after-party.
Only security guards appear to be nearby as they are seen chatting intimately, laughing and holding filled wine glasses.
They then disappeared into a darkened, curtained-off side room at the Nobu Hotel in central London.
Staff said the room was for use by guests only.
One security guard said: “You can only go through there if you are staying at the hotel.”
Earlier that night, at about 3am, Maura was heard shouting “Danny” as they stood on The Strand leaving a Universal Records party at 180 House where they were filmed kissing at 2.50am.
They travelled by car separately across London to a Sony party at Marylebone’s Nobu Hotel.
An onlooker said: “Danny and Maura seemed to be enjoying their night of partying and had no plans to call it a night.
“They were knocking back wine at the Nobu from 4am and seemed keen to carry on. They weren’t seen leaving before 6am.”
The pair met when they appeared together in ITV1’s I’m A Celebrity in November.

TRAGIC teen Morgan Dorsett is the SEVENTH person confirmed to have been mauled to death by an XL Bully in the last year – as experts admit the ban hasn’t worked.
Morgan, 19, was killed by an XL Bully dog, understood to be owned by her cousin and weighing over eight stone, in Bristol last week.

JOHN McLELLANMum Esther Martin[/caption]
There have been a total of 11 fatal dog attacks involving any breed since the Government banned XL Bullies on February 1 2024.
This means more than 60 percent – or nearly two thirds – of such deaths have been caused by the brutes, which are not recognised as an official breed by the UK Kennel Club.
Brits killed by XL Bullies since last February…
Esther Martin (February 3, 2024) Angeline Mahal (May 20, 2024) David Daintree (August 20, 2024) Nicholas Glass (August 21, 2024) Savannah Bentham (November 1, 2024) Michelle McLeod (December 7, 2024) Morgan Dorsett (February 26, 2025)
Earlier this year police chiefs warned the Bully legislation won’t be an “overnight fix”.
Under the change to the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, it became illegal to own an XL Bully without a certificate of exemption.
Then-PM Rishi Sunak had announced the ban following a flurry of attacks involving the breed.
Groups including the RSPCA and Dogs Trust also said the move would not stop the attacks, pointing to a “lack of data” to support such an assumption.
Meanwhile, Chief Constable Mark Harborough admitted in January the National Police Chiefs’ Council were yet to see any evidence the legislation change had led to a reduction in incidents.
And Patrick O’Hara, the NPCC’s tactical lead for dangerous dogs, added no forces have reported a reduction in incidents and many are putting in additional staff to cope with the extra demand.
ESTHER MARTIN
Grandmother Esther Martin, 68, suffered unsurvivable injuries after she was set upon by the dogs Bear and Beauty in Jaywick, Essex, on February 3 last year.
She was reportedly trying to break up the dogs with a broom as they fought before they turned on her.
The two adult dogs are said to have launched their attack in a back room as Esther’s horrified 11-year-old grandson fled the property to raise the alarm.
Both animals were destroyed at the scene and later confirmed to be XL Bullies.
Esther’s cause of death was previously given as “dog bite wounds to the upper right limb”.
The mum-of-two, who had raised thedogssince they were puppies, was found dead in the hallway of her home by her sons after the “awful attack”.
An unnamed family member told the Daily Mail they would “always urge her to give up the dogs” – especially after Esther’s death three months earlier.
DAVID DAINTREE
Lonely widower David Daintree, 53, wasfatally attackedby an XL Bully he’d been looking after at his home in Accrington, Lancashire, on August 20 last year.
She told The Sun: “As soon as I knew it was an XL Bully I told him to get rid of it.”
David’s beloved wife Sharon had died in July 2021, leaving the widower lonely and in need of a companion.
Young mum Joanne said: “He was lonely because the love of his life was no longer here and he didn’t know what to do with himself.”
NICHOLAS GLASS
Nicholas Glass, 32, was found dead in the garden of a relative’s property on Hereford Close in Rednal,Birmingham, in the early hours of August 21 2024.
It’s believed up to four dogs were present at the time he was attacked.
A post-mortem has since revealed he died as a result of dog bite injuries, cops said.
Two of the dogs were seized by police at the scene and the remaining pair were found following a two day hunt.
In a statement his family said: “In Nicholas we’ve lost a loving son, brother and uncle who was adored by all of his family and friends.”
SAVANNAH BENTHAM
10-year-old Savannah Bentham was mauled to death by her family’s “new pet” inside their caravan near Malton, North Yorkshire, on November 1 last year.
The youngster had been happily playing on swings in a park nearby just before the horror.
Savannah’s family issued a heartwrenching statement released by North YorkshirePolice.
It read: “We can’t believe we have lost our wonderful girl who we love so much.”
Her grieving family said: “She was a much-loved mother, daughter and friend to many and will be sorely missed by all who knew her.”
Neighbours told of their shock at the horror inside Michelle’s second floor flat in Aberdeen.
One said: “The dog got taken out for one walk a day just outside the flat. That was never going to be enough for a dog that size.
“Sadly this is how it’s ended.”
It’s thought Michelle had got Bailey less than a year before her death.
MORGAN DORSETT
Morgan Dorsett, 19, fromShropshire, was attacked by XL Bully dog Prince, and died at the scene on February 26.
A man and a woman, both in their 20s, were arrested following the horror before being released on bail.
The dog’s owner, Kelcie Jones, had asked members of Facebook group XL Bullys and Large Breeds for a Bristol-based expert in November last year due to its bad behaviour.
The dog, which is estimated to have weighed 8st, attacked Morgan while she was staying at her relative’s flat in Cobhorn Drive in Withywood, south Bristol.
In her post, Kelcie said: “Any1 recommend good trainers around the Bristol area?
“Got a 50-55kg boy main issue is pulling and hyper-fixating on things. (Tried all the main training tips and equipment). Tia x.”
XL Bully owner Sophie Coulthard previously told The Independent: “The PM [Rishi Sunak] said it was important to keep the public safe, but this ban has not kept the public safe.
“We said all along it was a knee-jerk reaction and that there was an opportunity for real reform in the UK and much better legislation, and this [the data] shows that.”
A spokesperson for Dogs Trust said: “We do not believe that banning further types of dog is an effective or sustainable solution to protecting public safety.
“Breed specific legislation fails to deliver what it was designed to do. It has not reduced hospital admissions from dog bites, it has not improved public safety and it has not reduced the number of dogs conforming to the breeds or types it legislates against.”
Last summer RSPCA’s dog welfare expert Dr Samantha Gaines said: “This current approach is not working, as is evident by these figures, and needs a complete overhaul, not only to better protect public safety but also to ensure good dog welfare.”
The ban has so far cost police an estimated £25million in vet and kennel fees alone, according to the NPCC.
At the end of last year, one of the largest dog marketplaces Puppies.co.uk sent Freedom of Information (FOI) requests to police forces across the UK.
It found just under 6,000 dangerous dogs had been seized by 27 forces in the 12 months from November 2023.
This meant 114 dogs are seized each week across the nation on average.
A spokesperson for Puppies.co.uk said: “While the recent data on dog seizures is concerning, it’s crucial to remember that focusing on breed-specific bans is not the answer to promoting public safety.
“The Dangerous Dogs Act has been in effect for over three decades and yet, hospital admissions due to dog bites continue to rise.
“Instead of focusing on breed, the emphasis should be on addressing the root causes of dog aggression, which generally stem from irresponsible ownership and breeding practices.”
They added: “Dogs, regardless of breed, can exhibit aggressive behaviour if they are not properly trained, socialised, and cared for.
“Tighter breeding legislation and increased resources for enforcement are necessary to combat the rise of illegal and low-welfare breeders who prioritise profit over the well-being of the animals.”
People tend to think of large, vicious dogs when they imagine being bitten by one.
But the truth is that many types of dogs are known to bite humans, whether provoked or not.
However, it’s important to remember that just because a breed tends to bite humans, that doesn’t mean that they all do.
British law determines five breeds of dog are illegal to own, breed, sell or give away.
These are an XL Bully, Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasileiro.

4 weeks agoLatest NewsComments Off on Shoppers go wild for new Aldi cocktail that’s only £4.50
ALDI shoppers are getting excited over a new classic cocktail mix that’s being sold by the discount supermarket.
Cocktail lovers can now get their hands on a bottle of Hugo Spritz – just in time for the warmer weather this weekend.
AlamyA Hugo Spritz cocktail[/caption]
Aldi is selling bottles of the pre-mixed cocktail for just £4.50, which is a bargain compared with usual cocktail prices.
Although less well-known than the summer favourite Aperol Spritz, the Hugo is still considered a classic cocktail.
It usually includes St-Germain elderflower liqueur (although some recipes use elderflower cordial), prosecco, soda water and mint.
Instagram user @bexblah posted a video of the Aldi find, saying the supermarket was “slaying the game” with its new drink.
A caption on her video read: “I can’t believe I found this in Aldi.”
The Instagrammer showed herself taste testing the drink, which she had added mint to and given a quick mix.
“Okay I’m so excited, oh my God,” she said before taking a sip of the drink. “People talk about Aperol Spritz, but Hugo is where it’s at.”
After trying a sip, she let out a gasp and said: “Oh my God, no way it’s good.”
Commenters on the video appeared excited too, with one posting: “Can’t wait to see if my local Aldi had this.”
Another said: “I’ve just bought this! Do you mix with Prosecco or just straight from the bottle?”
The taste tester then replied: “It already had a fizz but also it was quite sweet so mixing with prosecco would probably be gorginaaaa!!! don’t forget the mint!”
A third commenter said: “Hugo is the superior spritz, lidl do mini cans of them too.”
The Hugo Spritz was invented around 2005 and is believed to have been created by bartender Roland Gruber in the northern Italian town of Naturno, near the Austrian border.
It was originally called the Otto and went through a few tweaks before it reached its current form.
The more well-known Aperol Spritz has an unmistakable orange colour and a fresh bittersweet taste.
It includes prosecco, Aperol, soda and a slice of orange.
What other drinks is Aldi releasing?
Aldi has included a selection of spritzes in its new spring/summer wine range for this year.
It launched the range on March 3 and the collection includes a selection of reds, whites, roses, sparkling wines and non-alcoholic mixes, along with the ready-to-drink spritzes.
Alongside the Hugo Spritz, you can also get the Aperitivo Spritz and the Limoncello Spritz.
Aldi says you just need to pour them over ice and enjoy (although it’s worth adding fresh mint leaves to the Hugo Spritz for a more authentic experience).

CHELSEA marked their sunshine-infused 120th birthday with a hard-earned win against Leicester.
Enzo Maresca’s side keep their place in the Champions League spots ahead of a tough run of games with a much-needed 1-0 victory.
GettyMarc Cucurella scored from distance[/caption]
APThe three points takes Chelsea to fourth in the table[/caption]
RexCole Palmer’ goal drought continued as he saw his spot-kick saved[/caption]
Chelsea were by far the most threatening side and just two minutes in the Blues felt they should have had a penalty for a challenge on Palmer.
VAR deemed it “minimal contact”, however, it didn’t take long for him to get a golden chance to break his eight-game goal drought.
Referee Tim Robinson pointed to the spot this time after Jadon Sancho was brought down in the box.
Palmer stepped up, but his effort was brilliantly saved by Leicester keeper Mads Hermansen.
Chelsea continued to dominate but Maresca left ruing his lack of a target forward as crosses were swung aimlessly with Pedro Neto in the wars trying to reach them.
With no real threat coming towards Robert Sanchez from Leicester, it looked as though it could be one of those games where they struggle to break down a side despite having the lion’s share of the ball.
A moment of magic was needed as frustrations were growing and Marc Cucurella produced it on the hour mark.
A peach of a strike from outside the area as he lit up Stamford Bridge, as he has on numerous occasions this season, scoring for the second game in a row.
With chances coming and going for both sides, the nervousness among the home support was tangible as the game drew to it’s conclusion, with the relief at the full-time etched on Maresca’s face.
This is how SunSport’s Lloyd Canfield rated the players…
Robert Sanchez – 7
Maresca insisted he has two good goalkeepers at his disposal in the build-up to this game, but with the way they have performed this season you have to wonder if he is almost willing that to be true.
Was very nearly in the headlines again with a moment of madness seeing him come flailing towards a cross which he missed as Tosin Adarabioyo headed onto his own bar.
The Spanish stopper was sparsely troubled but was there when it mattered to stop the Foxes from scoring with a quietly assured performance on his return to the side after the aforementioned mistake.
Wesley Fofana – 8
His every touch was loudly booed by the Leicester fans who are still bitter about him leaving them in August 2022, but the £70million defender wasn’t at all fazed on his return from a lengthy injury lay-off.
He was playing at right-back in a role that was quite different to what we usually see from Reece James or Malo Gusto, basically forming a back three with Tosin and Levi Colwill.
The Frenchman looked like he hadn’t been out injured at all, making a number of big tackles, blocks and clearances that manufactured a sound defensive display.
Tosin Adarabioyo – 6
Was extremely fortunate not to put the ball in his own net with a header that bounced off of the crossbar midway into the first-half, but aside from that it was more of the same we have come to expect from the leader of the Chelsea defence.
He takes on the important role of vocally organising the backline and setting them up to play it out from the back.
Levi Colwill – 7
Levi is using Chelsea’s fixtures against the teams towards the bottom of the table to really build his confidence and show what has made him such a highly-rated defender by everyone at the club.
Made a crucial clearance in the first half to stop Jamie Vardy opening the scoring after a defensive mix-up, was thoroughly solid at the back with a strong aerial presence and composure on the ball.
Marc Cucurella – 9
It was a dynamic, energetic and ultimately goalscoring performance from the Spaniard who is all over the place, in a good way, for the Chels at the moment.
One minute he’s defending his own box and holding up the Leicester attack, the next he’s bursting down the left and combining with Nkunku – blink and he’s playing as a shadow striker next to Neto.
His positioning created chaos for Leicester, summarised no better than when he latched onto an Enzo Fernandez pass and rifled the ball low and hard into the bottom right corner to put his side in the lead.
For my money, the best left-back in world football in what has been his most prolific goal scoring season to date.
Moises Caicedo – 7
Was walking a tightrope from the start of the game, with a yellow card in this one holding the threat of him missing crucial upcoming games against Arsenal and Spurs.
While often praised for his ball winning ability, which is beaten only by Barcelona’s Pedri in Europe’s top five leagues, it was his crisp passing and technical skill that stood out, a myriad of clever touches and bits of combination play that helped form attacks for his side.
The Ecuadorian is arguably the Blues’ most important player.
Enzo Fernandez (c) – 8
Chelsea’s midfield metronome has been in fantastic form of late, and put in another assured performance in the middle, which only helps his rapport with the Stamford Bridge faithful who have fallen in love with his passion and desire to succeed here.
His passing was excellent and he looked the player most keen to drive his team forward with some hard running, but his performance came across somewhat stunted by a real lack of threat in front of him.
That was of course, until Cucurella stepped up and smashed home to give him a deserved assist.
Christopher Nkunku – 2
Still doesn’t look as though he’s really found his feet at Chelsea, despite a goal and assist in his last league game vs Southampton.
The No18 would be best used either in Palmer’s position or as a second striker next to a target man like he was at his prolific best for RB Leipzig.
Being stuck out on the left side, his pressing comes across lazy and while he often gets into the box, he is not the presence Chelsea need as they whip balls into the middle.
Cole Palmer – 5
Death, taxes and Palmer bagging pens – those things were all dead certain until today as Chelsea’s talisman missed his first ever Premier League penalty in the first half.
After beginning the season as the man who doesn’t feel pressure, who has ice running through his veins, Cole now at times looks like he’s trying too hard.
Those things considered, he has been the victim of the sky-high standards we have grown to expect from him and most of his work is actually still to a very high level, with some neat bits of skill and good general build-up play.
Don’t be surprised to see him back to his best when Chelsea have Nicolas Jackson back from injury.
Jadon Sancho – 3
Played on the right-hand side of attack today and often left fans frustrated in the first-half by holding the ball for too long – not driving at defenders the way we have seen him do in the past.
Did win the penalty that was missed by Palmer, and seemed to be given a lease of energy and life when his side took the lead in the second half.
Fans would like to see more of Tyrique George in his place, who has shone in limited minutes on the wing this season, as it’s now 11 straight games without a goal or assist for the man on loan from Man Utd.
Pedro Neto – 4
Deputised for the injured Jackson and Marc Guiu in the striker position as he did in the thrashing of Southampton two weeks ago.
Looked like the Karate Kid with a bandaged-up head after an early clash with Wout Faes.
While he works hard, and came close with a low driven shot in the second-half, Chelsea are really asking a lot of him to lead the line against a physical Foxes backline and he struggled for large parts of the game.
It wasn’t the dream 25th birthday he’d have had in mind, but I’m sure he’s more than pleased with three points.
SUBS:
Tyrique George (Palmer, 73) – 5
Was given 20 or so minutes to try and add another goal to Chelsea’s lead, and fill a Palmer shaped void whom he replaced with Nkunku moving into the middle.
This young man is adored by Stamford Bridge, with their affection towards him made obvious as the crowd around me stood to their feet for a sliding clearance in the final five minutes.
The arrival of Brazil sensation Willian Estevao here next season may harm his minutes, but with more performances like today, don’t be surprised to see a player like him fight his case or shine on loan at a team like Strasbourg.
Trevoh Chalobah (Fofana, 73) – 5
Will be fighting for his place in the starting XI once more now that Fofana has returned, but his defensive solidity will be welcomed depth, especially on days like today where his side were left with no natural right-back as James was ill.
Was strong in his challenges after being introduced, and made a few good blocks to see out the win and second successive league clean sheet which have been hard to come by at Stamford Bridge this season.
Josh Acheampong (Nkunku, 89) – 5
Bought on at the death to help his side see out the win and did so well, with a lot of pressure on the young man’s shoulders.
