FKA Twigs debuted her new hairstyle on the cover of i-D magazine. It is something that is expected from her, but you will still get shocked on seeing it. Instead of her usual sleek long locks, she has slid her hairline way back and decided to go with a half-mohawk/half-mullet look.

If her hairstyle has to be described in pop culture terms, then it's a cross between Travis Bickle (from the film Taxi) and David Beckham (in his mohawk days). So, it's a party in the back and a rock concert on top. For most of the people this hairstyle would be the mother of all bad hair days, but for FKA Twigs it's just another Tuesday.

Whatever other people's intrusive thoughts are, FKA Twig's lives those as realities, and she is proud of every one of her looks. This is the type of confidence people dream of but very few achieve. The hairstyle looks like Twigs is trying to tell people not to conform to the restrictions of society and just fly. It's giving 'Why fit into the cage when you can fly.'

While people are finding other ways to fly, FKA Twigs is doing it her way. No matter how unusual or bizarre it is for others. This isn't the first time Twigs has experimented with her looks. Over the years, her hair length has gotten shorter, and her hairline has gotten further back. But she likes it. It is nice to see someone not caring about the world and taking 'experimenting' to the next level.


Fan reaction to FKA Twigs' new hairstyle for i-D magazine

Fans love to see bizarre things online, it's the only reason they have an internet connection. They love it, and some celebrities are ready to give them that level of entertainment. So, when I-D magazine released their new cover featuring FKA Twigs, it was Christmas for netizens.

Here are some hilarious comments that will make you laugh at awkward moments when you remember them.

One worried-sounding user, @no_optionleft, asked a rightful question,

"This is crazy man....Did she even pay this barber?"

FKA Twigs is not shy to show her true identity in front of the world, and that's amazing. Everyone can learn a thing or two from her, maybe not things about hairstyles, but other things.
