On April 23, when WR for Kansas City Chiefs , JuJu Smith-Schuster’s new purple hairdo came out on cyberspace, it did not garner any sort of attention. But on May 30, when the official Kansas City Chiefs’ X account shared a lovely smiling picture of JuJu Smith-Schuster flaunting his purple hairdo, it caught attention like viral wildfire! One fan acclaimed, “Purple hair ready to play🏈” While another fan called, “It’s a Taylor Swift thing? Ok I get it”. A third fan went too blunt by saying, “We sporting Halloween decorations on our heads now?” Our hairdo’s not our own now? Many compliments came JuJu’s way, but so did un-called-for criticisms!
