Kim Kardashian’s fans really hate her new hairstyle.
The SKIMS founder unveiled a dramatic transformation on social media on Sunday, but not everyone likes it. She’s been compared to “our founding fathers” as one troll pointed out that her platinum basket-weave pigtails look a little like “a judge’s wig”.
She showcased the latest look on her Instagram, with more than one comparing the 43-year-old mom-of-four to Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. One commented: “What in the constitution is going on here?” Another said: “It’s giving… founding fathers.”

However not everyone was that nasty, with one follower saying the Kardashians star’s hair was certainly “unique”, while someone else begged for a tutorial. “This is actually so cool. I need a tutorial of this,” they commented. Another said: “Whoa love this Chris. seriously beautiful my dear,” crediting her regular hairstylist Chris Appleton.
The trolling is another blow for Kim who’s hot on the heels of a spat with Blank Space songstress Taylor Swift. The singer seemingly reignited her infamous feud with Kim by singing a new diss track aimed at the reality star during her Eras Tour.
At her second London show of the Eras Tour, Taylor made it clear who the song was about. She introduced her song thanK you aIMee with its capital letters spelling out Kim’s name, leaving fans in no doubt about the song’s target. Taylor merged the song with her hit track Mean and addressed the 80,000-strong crowd before her performance, declaring: “Every time somebody talks s*** it just makes me work even harder and it makes me that much tougher.”

Fans were quick to react to Taylor’s dig on X, formerly known as Twitter. One fan joked: “Kim Kardashian was found crying.” While another praised: “Petty queen. IDGAF Taylor’s era is her best era.” A third fan expressed their admiration, saying: “The way she performed that and Mean as a combo and that’s why we love her.”
The feud between Taylor and Kim started in 2016 after Kanye West, Kim’s then-husband, recorded a phone call with Taylor which was then leaked by Kim. During the call, Kanye seemed to ask Taylor permission to sing about her in his song Famous.
The track features the lyrics: “I feel like me and Taylor Swift might still have sex. Why? I made that b**** famous.” Taylor insisted Kim’s leaked call didn’t show what actually happened. Taylor was vindicated in 2020 when the unedited version of her and Kanye’s call was leaked, showing he hadn’t asked her about using the word “b****”.
