She said her mother took custody of the baby girl when she went away to university, but she came back and met her hair shaved. Jessie said in the video that her daughter was born with rich, dark and curly hair but apparently, the granny had a different idea.

She posted old photos of what her daughter's hair used to look like before the 'gorimapa' cut by granny. The new look shows that the haircut was a clean one even though it has started growing back. Mixed reactions have followed the video which received 362k views as at January 6.
