"It sounds like she didn't even try to pretend that she'd forgotten them."Oh, but she did pretend -- at first. She came up with that tale about being abducted/raped. Then she changed her story when it didn't pass the smell test. I still think she's lying. Three hours getting your hair done? Must have been about a hundred french braids.

In many hairdressers, particularly on a Saturday, you do a lot of waiting around for others to get their hair done before getting your own done- which could take 1-2 hours based on what was done. She would have known that, which is why I believe that this was done on purpose- some callous monster- "mother" does not fit here- who got tired of her little "brats". Her actions after the fact only confirm this in my mind.

It can take this long. All depends what you are getting done, but imo reinforces the notion that this is a black female since black hairstyles are usually quite elaborate and involve weaving which takes a while. My best friend is a colorist and stylist and the only thing I can see taking the same amount of time on a white female based on her experience is a headful of highlights on very long hair or someone getting hair extensions that have to be glued in. So if the perpetrator is a white female and you don't see some long luxurious locks, you can be pretty sure that part of the 3 hours were spent wasting time while the kids cooked, but 3 hours is reasonable for a black woman's hair appt in my view.
