The Today show sparked a bit of a firestorm earlier this week when it featured a segment on “easy and effortless” summer hairstyles. Presented by stylist and YouTube personality Deepica Mutyala and purported to be easy hairstyles you can do in under a minute — after the beach, say, or on the way to the pool — the segment took an unfortunate twist, and the Internet won’t let her forget it.
From the video of the segment, it appears Mutyala either didn’t prepare ahead of time or doesn’t have much experience with one of the model’s kind of hair. Jewelry designer Malyia McNaughton, a black woman sporting beautiful natural curls, surely must have taken some time to prepare for her appearance in front of millions of viewers. Mutyala then proceeded to turn those lovely locks into a complete mess on live TV.

Following the Today show airing, people took to Facebook and Twitter to demand an apology, rake Mutyala over the coals, and also attempt to boost the esteem of McNaughton.
