Zac Efron is being accused of cultural appropriation over dreadlocks

Zac Efron is just the latest celebrity to be accused of cultural appropriation after changing up his hairstyle.

Yep, Efron is now sporting dreadlocks - a hairstyle predominantly worn by people of colour.

But everything's alright, apparently: in a black-and-white photo announcing his new hair on Instagram, Efron assured his followers the look is "just for fun". What a relief.

Zac might be convinced his dreads are harmless, but others are accusing the actor of cultural appropriation.

On Instagram, one user wrote: “You do not look good in that buddy."

Another fan remarked: "SORRY BOO BUT NOT ON YOU."

While one person wrote: “Love you Zac, but this is appropriation."

Twitter wasn't entirely convinced either.

Not everyone was against the hairstyle.

Some thought others were being overly sensitive.
