Anne Twist, the mother of the popstar, took to Instagram to defend her son after fans complained about his new buzz cut.

Earlier this month, a photo of what appeared to be Harry Styles sporting a drastic new haircut at a U2 concert in Las Vegas quickly made its way across the interwebs.

For the most part, fans seemed to be stuck in the "denial" stage of the grieving process.


People online wasted no time expressing their disapproval of Styles parting ways with his signature locks, claiming they preferred his hair "As It Was."


Then came a more recent, not-at-all blurry photo shared on Instagram by Styles' gender-neutral beauty brand Pleasing, which the three-time Grammy winner launched in 2021.

The 29-year-old heartthrob definitely had a shorter 'do while attending a launch party in London for Pleasing's new fragrance line.

Photo-confirmed and made public on Instagram.


Cue the frenzy, along with more hurtful comments.

But one person who won't stand for all the criticism is the singer's own mother, and she made quite a valid point.

Anne Twist took to Instagram to address the backlash over her son's new buzz cut, noting Styles' "legacy of kindness and inclusion":

"When you consider that H has a legacy of kindness and inclusion, has always made every effort to make everyone feel seen and appreciated for exactly who they are … there’s an irony in the negativity he’s been shown for having a haircut."

She finished:

"Sorry but I don’t get it 🤷🏻♀️"


On the second slide, Twist included a humorous "let's uncrap that" rewrite of a what looked like a New York Post headline:

"Harry Styles fans shocked over shaved head reveal: ‘Ruined my entire life’"

To which Twist added:

"Breaking news: It's hair! It's his!"
"Also it will grow back. If he wants."

Fans agreed with Twist, applauding her for calling out the unnecessary backlash.











Mama really does know best. Treat people with kindness!

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed to reporters this week that officials in his administration suddenly found $30 billion they "never knew existed"—located on what Trump referred to as the "tariff shelf."

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.

Bride's Friends Surprise Her With Montage Video Of All Her Exes At Bachelorette Party—And People Are Mortified

While Jenny Han's novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a major hit, and even became a great film success in 2018, not everyone's married to the idea of reconnecting with their exes after the relationships end.

It might be nice to imagine staying friends after the relationships, imagining our exes missing us or regretting losing us, or even giving us an apology for the things they did wrong. But most of us pine for this for a little while, realize it's all a fairy tale, and push past it to better things and new love.
