Kim Kardashian's daughter North West has raised major concerns after unveiling a new look.
Now, the 12-year-old's fashion and beauty choices have been a heated discussion for quite some time now, following fan concerns over her 'high risk' dermal piercing, her recent SKIMS campaign and her fake face tattoos get-up just being a handful of instances.
The latest update in the saga came on Friday (13 December), when Kim and North stepped out at California's Nobu restaurant, with the latter donning an all-black ensemble with black rectangular shades and trainers to match.
She was also seen with long, straight, electric blue locks with bleached eyebrows to complete the look.

Despite the fact that she's a pre-teen, it's shocking to see how many people couldn't wait to pile on hate on such a young girl for 'looking older' or 'dressing beyond her years'.
"This is a 12-year-old child!" slammed one critic, while a second penned: "No way a 12-year-old should have the finger piercing, bleaching her eyebrows, nails like that!"
A third chimed in: "I'll say it. NO. Just no."
"Kim needs to learn how to be a mom & not a BFF to your children," jabbed another and a final person, who clearly wasn't fazed by North's experimental style, hit out: "Why are y'all reporting about a 12-year-old child?!
"I don't care who her family is or what fashion choices she's making."
North's no stranger to responding to online comments about her after recently responding to the backlash to her controversial finger piercing and calling people out for not minding their own business.
On her and her mum's shared TikTok account, @kimandnorth, North lip-synced to a popular trending sound which says: "Why are you crying? How old are you? Just pull it together."
Written over the video was the text: "This is for everyone that’s mad over a finger piercing."
Kim has previously spoken out on her eldest child's sense of style.
"She's really mature in one sense where she'll be like, 'Mom, I saw this and I don't really care that they don't like... my blue hair or this or that,'" Kim explained on a recent episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast. "She's really confident."
The reality TV star explained that she would like a little bit of 'grace' from people online when it comes to her parenting as she raises her four kids predominantly alone after her split from rapper Kanye West.
She continued: "I'm like, OK, we're never wearing that again. Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world. As a mum, you're kind of like learning at the same time."
