Justin Bieber chops off his dreadlocks

Justin Bieber has chopped off his dreadlocks.

The 'Sorry' hitmaker - who has experimented with his look and previously rocked bleach blonde hair - got the clippers and shaved off the long twisted knots and unveiled his latest look on Twitter.

In a selfie, which puts his tattoos and nose piercing on display, Justin's natural dark blonde roots are revealed.

And in another two pictures shared to his 66.4 million Instagram followers - which garnered three million likes between them - he wrote: "Congrats"

The change comes after Justin was mocked about his burgeoning white dreadlocks on social media.

But the 22-year-old star addressed the backlash on Instagram, posting a video of himself mocking people who mocked him.

In it, he says: "Dude, are you gonna do anything with your hair or are you just gonna leave it like that, dude?' Yeah, some girl came up to me, like, 'I love you Justin, but like, that's like my least favourite of yours."

He added: "Being weird is fun' if u r not weird I don't like you."

The star debuted his dreadlocks at the 2016 iHeartRadio Music Awards earlier this month.
