Almost reluctant to ask this question based on the number of comments and confusion on this topic but here goes…….
The question was to write:
“I had my hair brushed”
HINT: se faire brosser les cheveux = to have one’s hair brushed
In the comments, Cécile writes:
You will use ‘se faire faire quelque chose mostly when you are having something done by someone else.
So on that basis, as the question implies that someone else brushed my hair, I answered :
“Je me suis fait faire brosser les cheveux".
However, the correct answer is :
"Je me suis fait brosser les cheveux".
Could someone explain why I’m wrong?
