Conjugation of reflexive verbs in passé compose - nous

Why doesn’t the past participle take an extra ‘s’ with ‘nous’. Isn’t there more than one person, like ‘ils’?

This question relates to:French lesson "Conjugate reflexive verbs (+être) in the compound past in French (Le Passé Composé)"

Bonjour Alexandra,

If you are referring to the test question "nous nous sommes brossé les cheveux", take a look here to see why there should not be an agreement: agreement of reflexive verbs

At the moment, we accept both answers (with/without the agreement) as we have not published a lesson on this specific grammar point.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
