*Ne-Yo’s wife is the target of fierce backlash on social media after complaining about the coarse texture of her son’s hair.

Crystal Smith took to Instagram earlier this month with a request for help because her son wasn’t “blessed” with “Mommy’s ‘Hawaiian Silky’” hair texture.

So my son wasn’t blessed with mommy’s “Hawaiian silky” as my sister @nikki_loraine likes to say ??? Can anyone suggest some good products or moisturizers? Nothing I’ve tried will help the dryness. His hair seems to just soak up everything instantly ??♀ Comment below if you’ve had this issue. Hellllllllllp ??

The comment section soon flooded with criticism.

Many felt Crystal’s comment was rooted in the age old good hair/bad hair issue that has divided the African American community for decades.
