Little Zahara Jolie-Pitt recently debuted a new look, showing off a full head of long hair extensions.

However, at just six years old, she is far too young to be wearing braided hair extensions, a leading hairstylist has warned.

Celebrity groomer DaRico Jackson tells RadarOnline.com that Angelina Jolie’s daughter should not be putting such a strain on her tender locks.

“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,” Jackson stated.

“She is far too young for that and Angelina is creating insecurity in the little girl that what she has is not good enough.

“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.”

Jackson added that in his opinion Angelina would be better off having Zahara’s natural hair plaited which can still give her some respite from daily combing and brushing.
