TEEN Mom fans have branded Chelsea Houska’s wig “ridiculous” after an old episode of the MTV series resurfaced.
The 30-year-old left the show back in 2020 after a decade filming but despite her exit fans have started rewatching old episodes and have spotted continuity errors.
The latest thing they have picked up on is Chelsea sporting a wig in a scene after she had surgery on her ACL, yet moments later she is seen sporting her usual coif in a conversation with her mom.
Upon rewatching the episode, viewers claimed that she was asked to wear a “greasy” wig by production for continuity when reshooting her scenes after she dyed her hair blonde.
One penned on a Reddit thread: “I cannot get over how ridiculous these wigs are! Did they really think people wouldn’t notice? It’s so obvious between these two scenes”.
“It’s bc this was recorded after Chelsea already changed her hair to blonde,” another claimed.
“So they recorded it and used the wigs to make it seem like this scene was before she changed her hair.”
A third wrote: “Why does it look so greasy, how on earth does a synthetic wig get greasy like that?!
“Y’all, I never suspected they were wigs. I just thought Chelsea’s hair was so badly damaged from constantly dying and changing it. It’s so obvious though!” another remarked.
The comments come a mere day after fans branded Chelsea ‘orange’ as an old clip of the MTV show resurfaced.
Reddit users began sharing a still from an old episode, joking about the reality star’s fake tan.
The original poster shared the image, writing: “The hand to face color ratio is absolutely scary!!” pointing out the drastic difference between the tone of Chelsea’s face and the rest of her body.
Another commenter joked: “Literally cheeto dust!”
A third fan quipped: “Tomato Tupperware, I’m glad she was able to scrub the worst of her face as the years went by.”
Someone else commented on the post: “My daughter was coming and going while I was watching and she asked me ‘why is her face so orange’.”
A fifth comment read: “Ugh this reminds me of 2003. That Maybelline dream mousse foundation.”
Other fans noted how Chelsea toned it down over the years, though she has faced controversy due to her tan even after leaving the show.
“I’m watching season 7 and while her tan looks more natural, she has those weird angular sharpie brows,” one Teen Mom fan wrote.
Another chimed in with a show of solidarity, writing: “10 or so years ago I was guilty of this too… and the skinny eyebrows.”
This isn’t the first time Chelsea’s tan has come up.
In December, she was accused of “blackfishing” after she posted a photo with. her daughters in which she looked drastically darker than them.
The photo in question appeared to have been part of a family photoshoot snapped a month earlier.
In the original post, a Reddit user wrote: ‘Chelsea’s girls rocking their natural (albeit insta filtered colour. Meanwhile their Mam is 1,000 shades of mahogany.”
Several fans accused her of trying to look another race, with one writing: “If I didn’t know any better I’d think she adopted those kids lol. I don’t get why she wants to appear an entirely different race!”
Another user wrote: “It’s weird how people are coming to her defense about her way too dark makeup color/skin color. I guess it rubs me wrong when white girls try so hard to look brown.”
Although her tan is often the topic of conversation online, it’s not the only aspect of Chelsea’s appearance that fans of the MTV reality show franchise are obsessed with.
