Bieber’s friends were fans of his new hairstyle, while many fans criticized it.

“Swags crazy,” Jaden Smith wrote.

Moises Arias, who also has his hair in dreadlocks, commented, “We twinning once more, tripled up with [Jaden] 🦁.”

Kyle Massey called Bieber a “living legend.”

Rapper Lil Gnar added, “Dreads goin up.”

Fans, however, voiced their disappointment and accused the singer of cultural appropriation.

“J, please educate yourself on culture [sic] appropriation…. You shouldn’t be wearing dreads… With Love,” one fan wrote.

Another similarly said, “This is cultural appropriation… I know you can do better.”

“UMM SIR WHAT IS – ,” one fan commented.

“Didn’t you say you were educating yourself about Black culture so what is this foolery,” one person said, in reference to his social media post in June addressing the ways he’s “benefitted off Black culture.”

In June, Bieber took to social media promising to “be part of the much needed change” amid racial injustice.

“I am inspired by Black culture,” the “Peaches” singer wrote. “I have benefited off of Black culture.”

“My style, how I sing, dance, perform, and my fashion have all been influenced and inspired by Black culture,” Bieber continued. “I am committed to using my platform this day forward to learn, to speak up about racial injustice and systemic oppression, and to identify ways to be a part of much needed change.”
