His new look comes after the singer was accused of cultural appropriation and racial insensitivity after he debuted his hair with dreadlocks last month. On social media, some Black women called Bieber's hairstyle offensive and disrespectful and urged him to change it and apologise — Dreadlocks are traditionally connected to the culture and identities of Black people.
