Users wrote in the comments next to the photo said, "What did you doooo?" and "I don't like the dreads", while one fan said it was time to "get the scissors" and another slammed Bieber's dreadlocks as culturally insensitive.
Despite not everyone digging Bieber's dreadlocks, the Instagram pics have received over 1.4 million likes since they were posted.
