Kylie Jenner ditches the cornrows for simple top knot amid race row as she treats herself to some pampering in Beverly Hills

Kylie Jenner ditched her much talked about cornrows for a simple top knot when she headed out to a nail salon in Beverly Hills on Monday. 

The 17-year-old reality star caused controversy with the choice of style and was slammed by actress Amandla Stenberg, 16, after she shared a picture of her new look to her Instagram account. 

But the half-sister of Kim Kardashian didn't seem too fazed and looked incredible in a brown leather jacket and skinny jeans as she drove herself to the Nail Bar And Beauty Lounge for a manicure.

Toughen up your look in Kylie's Acne Studios biker jacket

Kylie Jenner is turning into a serious style star just like her older sisters.

What we love about her is her eclecticism. Not only does she mix designer and high street but she's mixes up her trends too, never sticking to one signature look. We like her best when she's casual and laid back so today's outfit is hitting the mark.

The skinny jeans with distressed knees are by 7 For All Mankind, the suede heels are Gianvito Rossi and the biker jacket is by Acne Studios. What a cool combination of labels. And this jacket is definitely the pièce de résistance.

Acne is a very hip Swedish brand with fans in everyone from Mila Kunis to Ellie Goulding and their boxy bikers are a particular favourite of the celebrity set. So click (right) to buy Kylie's jacket now at Barneys and join the Acne gang.

Then complete her look with the jeans and heels below. We've also found some great tan bikers that won't break the bank for those on a budget.

Amandla hit out at Kylie and accused her of 'appropriating black culture' without using her celebrity 'to help black Americans', after the snap was shared. 

She commented: 'When u appropriate black features and culture but fail to use ur position of power to help black Americans by directing attention towards ur wigs instead of police brutality or racism #whitegirlsdoitbetter.'

Kylie, who is believed to be dating rapper Tyga, responded: 'Mad if I don't, Mad if I do…. Go hang w Jaden or something.'

Support: Justin Bieber has defended Kylie Jenner's cornrow hairstyle, and asked people to 'leave her alone'

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was referring to the fact that Amandla, who rose to fame playing Rue in The Hunger Games, went to prom with Jaden Smith in May.

Justin Bieber later jumped to Kylie's defence and wrote on Instagram: 'Guys leave her alone, were all trying to figure it out and she happens to be under a microscope!' [sic]

The singer, 21, added: 'I'm the first to know this. But saying she's being racist because she has her hair in braids is ridiculous.

'Lets focus on the bigger picture and instead of fighting over something stupid lets do something about equality, but it doesn't start here blasting a 17 year-old kid for wearing braids.'

 The star gave herself some added height in a pair of beige high pointed heels that she teamed with a pair of ripped jeans and a white top  slashed at the sides.

Her make-up, as usual, was perfect as she modelled her low-key look. 

She posted a shot of her manicure on Instagram and showed off her new lemon yellow nails, placed against the legs of her trendy ripped jeans

On her fingers were a number of rings in gold by Lace By Tanaya which retail at $100 and have unusual swirling patterns and a couple of glistening midi rings which sat atop them. 

New. Thanks @nailbarandbeautylounge

Kylizzle, as she frequently calls herself, was also sans the ice blue locks she was seen sporting at her Kylie Hair Kouture extension line launch for Bellami Beauty Bar on Thursday.

Her dark brown bob was instead slicked in a tousled style.

Her outing to filming was just a day after she went for a dinner date with 25-year-old boyfriend Tyga at Nobu in Malibu.

The teenage star's relationship with Tyga has been in the headlines recently.

Transsexual model Mia Isabella, reportedly leaked nude photos of the King Gold Chains rhymer and claimed to have had a three-year relationship with him.  

On Sunday Kylie, who is not usually camera shy, attempted to hide her face with a huge orange Hermes Birkin bag as she sat in the passenger seat after her meal at Nobu.

Tyga drove off in a custom green Bentley two-seater after their dinner date. The rapper is currently being sued for $1.6 million plus damamges by business partner Chuon Guen Lee, with whom she started the Last Kings clothing line in 2013.

According to TMZ, Guen Lee claims Tyga failed to promote the brand and get it on shelves as promised, and has also gone on to start a new company called Egypt Kings.

Meanwhile, Kylie is also counting down to her 18th birthday. While on the red carpet for her hair extension launch she dished on how she plans to celebrate.

'The first thing I want to do is maybe have like a birthday party and then maybe go on a trip with just my friends,' she told E!

'I'm legal, so I can go on a trip legally without a chaperone, so that'll be fun, just a girl trip.'
