Some online critics have claimed she can’t close her mouth properly, with others comparing her veneers to those of musician Mr JazziQ. Beyond her smile, speculation has also swirled around Mihlali’s appearance in general. Many have accused her of undergoing a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), despite previously having what fans called a “perfect” body. Similarly, her teeth were once praised as flawless before the cosmetic change.

Adding fuel to the conversation, some critics claim things began to “go downhill” for the influencer after she entered a relationship with businessman Leroy Sidambe suggesting it marked the beginning of her altering her appearance and facing intensified public scrutiny.

Despite the backlash, Mihlali remains unapologetic. “I love my smile,” she said confidently, explaining that getting veneers was a personal decision based on her own desires, not public validation.
