Two mothers are calling out the staff at a Washington state day care center after claiming that one of the employees waxed their toddlers’ eyebrows without their permission.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mothers Alyssa Salgado and Glenda Maria Cruz say that when they went to pick up their children Thursday morning from the Pasco facility, they noticed an irritated, red patch between their eyebrows where hair used to be.
⠀⠀
“I think it’s a scratch but as soon as (I) get home I get a closer look these WOMEN decided to WAX MY DAUGHTERS unibrow,” Salgado, 19, wrote on Facebook. “I birthed my daughter and love every little thing about her and these so-called women took it upon themselves to correct the way my daughter should look.”
When Cruz tried to examine her son’s face, he refused, claiming that it hurt.
⠀⠀
“My son can’t talk and I don’t know what he has been through,” Cruz wrote on Facebook. “It’s really hard honestly because he’s just a baby he cant defend himself he’s not even 2 yet.”
