Khloe Kardashian hits back at speculation she ‘changed her face’

Khloe Kardashian has hit back at speculation she ‘changed her face’, saying ‘attacking someone is sad’ while also encouraging those who don’t have anything nice to say to simply not bother.

Kardashian took to Instagram to gush about her temporary new fringe, or ‘bangs’, after she used clip-in hair for a cover shoot for Sorbet magazine – a style she was ‘surprised’ to really like.

She wrote: “Fun fact: I wore clip on bangs for this shoot. It was fun to give a different look and not be committed.

“I am surprised with how much I liked the bangs even though they changed the shape of my face. Would you ever get bangs?”

While many fans commented to say how much they loved the new aesthetic, a number of people suggested the change in appearance had nothing to do with the hairstyle.

“I don’t think it was the bangs that changed your face,” one said, with another writing: “Ummm mam, your bangs didn’t ‘change the shape of your face’…your SURGEON did! You still cute tho.”

A third added sarcastically: “Ohhh it was the bangs that changed your face so much in these pics?” another follower wrote.

But Kardashian wasn’t having it.

According to Us Magazine, she responded in a comment that appears to have since been deleted: “I openly talk about my nose job and anyone who ‘looks up’ to me must know I’ve lost over 60 pounds over the years.

“So recently the only change is the bangs. I didn’t know I had to do a running list.”

She continued: “Either way, attacking someone is sad in my opinion. Unprovoked is the saddest part. If you are offended or don’t like what you see, you simply don’t have to say anything. I hope you have a great first week of the new year. Thanks for making mine so jolly.”

Defending the star, one fan echoed this sentiment, writing on her post: “Don't know what the heck haters are saying about you but you look good. When a woman looks good just compliment her - it's not that hard to say something good to a person. Positive vibes only.”

Back in October, Kardashian revealed she had undergone an operation to have a tumour removed from her face, having been spotted in photos wearing a band aid on one cheek.

Sharing some of the snaps, she wrote: "I have seen numerous stories going around about the ever-evolving bandage on my face, with some of you wondering why I've been wearing one for the past few weeks."

The mum-of-two then shared a close-up of the small lump she had found on her face, saying: "After noticing a small bump on my face and assuming it was something as minor as a zit, I decided to get it biopsied 7 months after realising it was not budging."

She explained that she got checked out by two different dermatologists, who both said that 'what they were seeing was incredibly rare for someone my age'.

After getting a biopsy, Khloe was told she had to undergo an 'immediate operation to remove a tumour from [her] face.'

She wrote: "I called none other than Dr Garth Fischer, a dear friend of my family's and one of the best surgeons in Beverly Hills who I knew would take incredible care of my face.

"I'm grateful to share that Dr Fischer was able to get everything - all my margins appear clear and now we are onto the healing process.

"So, here we are... you'll continue to see my bandages and when I'm allowed, you'll probably see a scar (and an indention in my cheek from the tumour being removed), but until then I hope you enjoy how fabulous I'm making these face bandages look."
