Teen Mom: Sophia’s Red Hair Fiasco In The Past
In 2022, Teen Mom stars Farrah and Sophia were faced with a lot of backlash as the latter was spotted with red streaks of hair and multiple facial piercings. Several people argued that Sophia looked much older than her age. Many took to the internet to even criticize Farrah for letting Sophia do this to herself. This incident also raised a lot of questions about how reality TV has an impact on young minds and affects younger children negatively.
During this time Sophia and her mother Farrah decided to stay mum and did not reply to any of the criticism online. However, Farrah has always taken a stand in this matter and defended her daughter’s choices. She wants her daughter to be able to express herself through makeup and clothes. Farrah wants Sophia to be independently able to promote her individuality and confidence and lets Sophia make her own choices.
Teen Mom: The Internet Has Criticized Sophia And Farrah For Whitewashing
After all the hatred died down about her hair and piercings in 2022, Sophia has again made news about her alleged whitewashing. Netizens from the Teen Mom fanbase are upset by this step. Everyone on the internet has been heavily trolling Farrah for her questionable parenting choices. Fans suddenly noticed a stark contrast between her complexion now and how she was in her childhood.
All these talks are leading to nothing but speculation. Some say it’s make-up or filter, others say that it is just a passing “goth” phase. The internet has been in a fix as many think that this is just a result of Sophia’s teenage habits and the fact that she is staying at home all the time. Fans have even said that Sophia is probably using excess sunscreen which has made her skin tone down in colour.
In contrast to this, a sect of people were of the opinion that Sophia’s previous olive skin tone was a result of tanning or makeup. Comments ranged from supportive to critical; one user remarked, “She’s just a teen who probably stays inside more,” while another suggested that filters and makeup played a significant role in altering her appearance.
As the debate continues, not only is Farrah’s parenting in scrutiny but a lot about people’s standards regarding beauty is coming to light. This phase will also die out unless Sophia again decides to change her look and shock the viewers. Keep an eye on TV Season & Spoilers for more Teen Mom news.
