Kim posted a selfie with Saint from his birthday trip to a Lakers game where the preteen had bleached blonde hair.

He also sported the new shorter and lighter ‘do while wearing a soccer jersey and kicking a ball in a slow-motion clip.

She included several clips of the pair goofing around while cuddling in bed in the post.

While many fans praised the cute tribute, some couldn’t get over Saint’s newly-dyed hair.

One commented: “8 and you bleach his hair. It’s bad for their hair. Everyone knows this.”

Another added: “It’s deplorable.”

A third posted: “I just can’t believe yall cut his hair for real.”

Other users defended Kim for dying her son’s hair, writing: “Growing up there were always little boys around me bleaching hair it’s not a big deal.”

This isn’t the first time Kim has faced backlash over her parenting skills.

She has come under over her 10-year-old daughter North West’s outspoken behavior in recent episodes of The Kardashians.

In one episode, North watched as Kim had her fitting for the Met Gala.

The reality star told cameras that her eldest child just wants to “rate people’s outfits” and is like the “new Joan River.”

“She loves to critique,” the TV personality explained in a confessional.

Back in the fitting room, Kim met with Schiaparelli creative director Daniel Roseberry to try on her pearl-laden dress for the red carpet.

While watching her mom get dressed, North said: “There’s way too much gaps in the pearls.

“It looks like she’s a Hawaiian girl with her dress all ripped.”

She added: “I like the pearls. I just don’t like that it looks, like, from the Dollar Store.”

Daniel was the most stunned by the commentary, telling cameras: “This is my worst nightmare come to life. It’s like I’m being Punk’d. The night before the Met, getting read for filth.”

In another recent episode of The Kardashians, North took a swipe at her mom’s skin.

Kim was shown sitting in glam with her hair and makeup artist Chris Appleton.

Suddenly, North walked into the room and said: “You need a pimple patch, Mom.”
