Rachel Roy really doesn't learn. If anyone else had an army the size of the Beyhive after them they would probably go into hiding in an underground bunker. However, ever since Beyoncé referred to her husband's mistress "Becky with the good hair" in LEMONADE, Roy has done nothing but fuel the fire engulfing her. 

The night the album dropped, Roy posted an Instagram with a caption that seemed to reference Beyoncé's line. "Good hair don’t care, but we will take good lighting, for selfies, or self truths, always. live in the light #nodramaqueens," she wrote. Strike 1. 

She's since backed off that cliff and complained about cyberbullying​, but now she's back with an interview that will make you really wonder what the hell Roy is thinking. 

The designer—and #1 Becky suspect—is back with her first big interview since the drama and you're probably saying to yourself, she probably took the time to shut down these rumors, pledge allegiance to the Beyhive, talk about how much she loves LEMONADE—both the album and the beverage—and say she might have Good Hair but Beyoncé has some of the Best Hair of all time

Well, one would hope, but Roy did pretty much the exact opposite and made a good chunk of her interview with Into the Gloss about her Good Hair. Strike 2.

There's not an explicit reference to the lyric or to Beyoncé but this still feels like the least thought-out troll of all time. 

Tracey Cunningham for a gloss, to brighten it, and then someone at her salon Mèche cuts it. On occasion, I do get oil treatments where they put oil on your scalp row by row and then massage you for 30 minutes. It’s amazing because my scalp gets dry. That’s why I only wash my hair about once a week. I’m a dry shampoo girl because of that. I can get a blowout to last me a whole week. If I get it styled, I like braids or a ponytail. I like it done really high and tight because it gives your face a little lift.

And if you think Into the Gloss didn't know the gold it had on its hand, merely look up at its URL: "rachel-roy-hair." The interview touches on many things, including Roy's career, her makeup and skincare routines, and her health. Yet the URL is Rachel Roy Hair. That's crazy. That's strike 3. 

Roy may have shared some of her hair tips, but some might be helpful going into the future in order to avoid the wrath of the Beyhive. 

  • Don't talk about your hair, idk, like ever again, tbh
  • Maybe just shave all your hair off
  • Get your identity changed to a woman without Good Hair
  • Get "Not Becky" buzzed into your head
  • Idk maybe don't do an interview where the focus is on hair and let the website make the URL only about your hair

What's that sound you hear? 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
