Rapper Young M.A. was recently trending on social media after a photo of her getting her hair done went viral.

People on social media were concerned for the "Ooouuu" rapper after they noticed that her eyes looked yellow, which can be a sign of serious health issues. Young M.A.'s barber, who goes by @fatsdabarber on Instagram, addressed the backlash he got from posting the video, as people accused him of posting for clout. 

He stated, "Y'all got so much to say as if I'm trying to embarrass my dawg she reposted my video if she didn't want me to record she would have told me y'all don't know our bond nor our friendship what y'all need to do is just send your prayers for her and that's that she didn't have a haircut in a month and she wanted me to bring her haircut back to life and which I did!!!! thank you sis for coming and rocking with me like always." 

Young M.A. also responded, writing, "We blessed don't let that get to ya blooda...and I told you it was like 4 months."
