Joey Kinghas a hilarious reaction to her bold new beauty look.

On Wednesday, Jan. 16, the actress, 25, posted a TikTok video explaining her recent choice to bleach her eyebrows.

“I dyed my eyebrows like a week ago,” King says in the makeup-free clip. “They were like white before and how they just look like the Lorax mustache.”

She continues, “But I kind of love it. But then I saw my mom two days ago and she was like, ‘I just can’t look at you. You look so weird.'”

TheKissing Boothstar then jokingly defends her look, saying: “Guys, I know I look weird. That’s the point. I was like, ‘Mom, that’s the point. The point is that I’m trying something different. I’m gonna dye them back but just let me have this.'”

“Honestly I’m a huge fan of the blonde brows,” one wrote.

“My mom said the same thing to me they don’t get it,” said another.

A third wrote, “Joey you look fantastic.”
