Kailyn Lowry Gets SLAMMED For Bieber-Inspired Dreadlocks, Deletes Instagram Pic

White people with dreadlocks. It’s the Mount Everest of culturally problematic ethnicity/hairstyle combos. Many think they can take it on, most are wrong.


Last week, Justin Bieber rocked the ‘locks at the 2016 iHeartRadio Awards, and the reaction was…not great. Sadly, that didn’t stop Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry from taking a page from the Biebs book with a hairstyle that has fans deeply divided:



Now, in fairness, Kailyn has a lot on her plate these days.


She seems to be separated from her husband, Javi Marroquin. Her ex Jo Rivera just got engaged. And of course, like all Teen Mom stars, her life is a constant whirlwind of screaming matches and questionable decisions.


So it’s not surprising that she decided to make a superficial change, perhaps to in some small way reclaim some control of her life.


Unfortunately, it’s also not surprising that her rasta-pasta blonde dreads have been absolutely savaged by social media commenters.


The situation got so bad, in fact, that Kailyn deleted the above photo from Instagram and Twitter, and started retweeting the handful of fans who complimented her new ‘do.


She hasn’t spoken out about the controversy, aside from a tweet reading simply, “People are afraid of change.”


We don’t know about “change,” Kailyn, but they certainly seem to be afraid if your new look.


Watch Teen Mom 2 online for more regrettable life choices.
