Commenting on the story, a Nigerian educator, Ella Okoro, shared what should have been done to avoid conflict in the family.
"Consent is very important in all things. If there was consent this fight will not happen. So far as the children didn't come out of your own womb, please communicate your intention before carrying out something as serious as cutting a child's hair. In fact ,even with your own child, you still need your husband's consent," she said.

Notesbyairhe said:
"If this sister had good intentions, I promise you she would have apologized. She could have simply said, “Oh I’m sorry. I just didn’t like the way they looked with the hair. I won’t do it again without your permission. No! Instead, she’s fighting them and claiming rights, meanwhile her own daughter has her hair braided. Quite disturbing."
Jekanna_m said:
"Omorr! This time I don’t even talk too much anymore. Just pull up with police or army men and carry her. She needs to explain herself properly and provide the hairs or my children. Bcoz her own kid can’t be making hair and mine won’t. Is not possible. Craze people everywhere."
Celindion_aj added:
"Comments here are so funny! If you can entrust your kids into a woman’s hand for weeks, what then is the problem her shaving their hair? What if the hair is unkept and she only did to make them look cleaner. What do this generation attach spirituality to every gesture?"
Kokolet_naturals reacted:
"The man na ugu leaf cos normally e for dash one slap omo dey never born that sister inlaw ooo u cut my children's hair as what? u be ritualistt ni."
