Why is Everyone Being Mean to Miley Cyrus About Her New Hair?

Earlier this week we reported that while we were all glued to the Olympics Closing Ceremony on Sunday night, good old Miley Cyrus creating a right old Twitter storm with the news that she and her hairstylist Chris McMillan (the very same man behind Jennifer Aniston’s famous ‘Rachel’ cut just f.y.i) had taken to the scissors.

That’s right, the Disney Allum had only gone and cut of (nearly all) of her hair to form a brand new bleach-blonde pixie crop.  Luckily for us the busy duo generously created a reportage of twit-pics throughout the process, as well as treating us to a final reveal pic once her cut was finished. Too kind!

And it was pretty clear that Miley liked her new crop because she posted “Never felt more me in my whole life,” once her cut was finished and has been busy posting pictures of it ever since.  Unfortunately however, the new look hasn’t gone down too well with all of her fans – some of whom seem quite distraught at the decision.  Rapper Tyler the Creator was among the critics, tweeting, 'Your barber is an a**hole.'  Though he later dleted the message.

One US psychologist has gone so far as to suggest that Miley’s latest beauty look is an indicator she could be suffering emotional trauma! "Miley Cyrus seems stuck in a set of compulsive behaviours that cry out for attention," psychologist Dr Seth Meyers told RadarOnline.com. "Her parade of unusual and provocative behaviour recently reminds me of Britney Spears' downward spiral in the past."

Mean or what?! Isn’t everyone reading into the whole situation a bit too much? The poor girl is only 19 and probably trying to shrug of her sugar sweet Disney days.  It's what teenagers do, and surely she’s permitted to do exactly as she wishes with her hair?  We’ve all been there!

Anyway good old Miley fired back the other night saying 'My dad Billy Ray Cyrus used to tell me, "Opinions are are like a**holes - everybody has one." LOVE my hair. Feel so happy, pretty, and free.' Go Girl! What do you think? Oh and be sure to check out Miley's "week in hair" in our gallery above.
