“So after 20 years of growing her dreads my mom wanted to cut off her hair.,” Twitter user @praizekirkwood wrote on Saturday. “She wasn’t sure how my dad would react tho [sic]….but this is how he did.”
Turns out Dawne had no reason to fret. Pops was all over his woman.
“Oh wow, oh you are so hot,” Kirkwood’s father can be heard saying in the video as he goes to embrace her. “You look like a Hollywood star.”
She sure did. And Twitter just couldn’t keep it together.
But why am i crying! I love their love….like he adores her. You can tell. Cheers to your parents. P.S. your mom is stunning! pic.twitter.com/DQkdPtMsNK
