The 'Speak to the Manager' haircut, characterized by a blonde, asymmetrical, stacked bob, became a global internet phenomenon in the late 2010s as the visual shorthand for the 'Karen' archetype. Often associated with reality star Kate Gosselin's early 2000s look, the hairstyle came to represent a specific type of middle-aged woman known for her entitled and demanding behavior in retail and hospitality settings. The meme gained significant traction on platforms like Reddit and Twitter, evolving from a joke about bad hair into a broader cultural critique of entitlement. Today, it serves as a universal symbol for any situation where someone overreacts to a minor inconvenience or demands corporate intervention.
