I give advice, to only have, the advice I have given, not being followed..

I really get frustrated when I give out advice and the advice that I give out is not followed through, especially if someone comes to me for it. My mother-in-law has a bad habit of doing this to me. She will come and ask me for advice and when I give my own personal suggestion, she will go and follow what she really wants. Like just last week, she asked me if she could use Motions shampoo on her wig. I told her that I guess she could, being that the wig was not her real hair anyway. I don't know all about wigs and weaves as far as what kind of shampoo to use on it. I know it all depends on if the wig has 100% human hair. So, I could not give her the correct advice on this. My response to her was, I guess, I don't know... She said that she used the same shampoo on her black wig and it did not do anything to it. So, my concern is, if she already knew that, then she should have known that the shampoo will have the same results on her brown/auburn wig. When she could not get the reply that she wanted, she just said, I will use this shampoo.. If my mother-in-law asks me of my opinion and I give it she has to understand that I may not agree with her all of the time.
