Los Angeles, Dec 24 (IANS): A celebrity hair stylist has criticised actress Angelina Jolie for letting her six-year-old daughter Zahara get hair extensions.

"She is far too young for that, and Angelina is creating insecurity in the little girl that what she has is not good enough," aceshowbiz.com quoted DaRico Jackson as saying.

"Growing up with siblings who have long flowing hair, Zahara may grow to feel that her own natural hair is not pretty enough, and that without the fake hair she is not beautiful. She should be made to embrace who she is," she said.

Zahara was pictured sporting new hair extensions when stepping out in Las Vegas with parents Jolie and Brad Pitt and siblings.

Jackson said Zahara's natural hair was enough to be braided.

"If Angelina wants Zahara to be in touch with her roots and have her hair braided then she can do that with the child's own hair and she doesn't need to add extensions. There are many cute styles that Zahara can have without adding fake hair at such a tender age," she said.
