Rida admitted to the Christopher and his staff that she had never colored her hair before. rarely cuts it and does not wear much make up.

She doesn’t wear much make up because she is a self proclaimed homebody that leaves the house mostly to visit her mother at the nursing home and that she fits in very well there. This was not going to suffice for Christopher and his staff.

“Let’s not do that. You are too young for that. You are awfully young to be old,” Christopher Hopkins tells Rida after her admission.
