The Sun reported that one said: "Erm bit rude - not all moms have shorter hair.

"I have four children and long hair - can't be a***d with wannabes who stereotype people based on their hair.

"Maybe you should tell Laura to 'grow up' - life is more important than how you look, god help her daughter."

The user said: "Plenty of mums have long hair.

"It could have been worded as 'had my hair cut so newborn hands can’t grab it' but noooo it was “mom cut”."

Another added: "Short hair doesn't necessarily mean a mom haircut.

"You are stereotyping hair.

"I guess your long hair was party girl phase.

"I guess Rachel and Monica from friends were a moms in the first season."

Laura clapped back saying: "Mums can obviously have any hairstyle.

"I'll probably go mega long in a few months.

"Chillax. Who cares about a caption?

"The hate of my 'mum cut' post. I've had this [haircut] before, it's just a caption.

"Why are people so offended?"

Fans also jumped to defend Laura with one asking: "Why are people so vexed over a caption?

"Your hair's beautiful."

And another said: "It was a caption, no big deal."
