Solange is known for mixing it up with braid extensions and wigs from time to time, but at last night’s CDFA awards the stylish singer showed off her gorgeous texture with a soft curly fro. I’m loving it! What do you ladies think? Close up pics are below. All photos courtesy of TheYBF.com.
That dress is divine.
**CFDA awards, not CDFA. Sorry, but as a fashion student the mixup bothers me lol. Solange looks great, as always!!
My hair is EXACTLY like hers same length and errr ting lol… and people come at me all the time asking what I put in it or saying I have so called GOOD HAIR I never do anything to it no trimming or too much grooming it I just let it be and wash it …other people with different hair textures always come at me worrying about why this or why that about my hair accusing me of texturizing or telling me I need to do more styling because it looks UNKEMPT lol … I have a natural IMO this means I am going to let my hair do what it do no styling no chemical no nothing but wash and let dry ……….and my whole point is there are people who want your natural to look a certain way they scream natural but when a real natural is around they want to see how GOOD your hair is same thing with this chic she obviously has a nice head of hair and she should be commended considering her sister is the lace wig queen of the universe that she chose to do her own thing it looks good its natural and whatever texture she has is irrelevant because its natural
I say we honor solange’s request and leave her the h-ll alone about her hair. Why is she being singled out all the time.
Let’s not make hair idols. Anyone’s hair is good hair for them. Are we the only group in the world that has to make hair idols concerning there natural texture.
I don’t care what she does with her hair. It’s none of my business. My hair is my business.
First,everybody just relax! Let’s not allow anything about us be used to divide us-as women as naturals. Listen Solange is ultimately being her most authentic self and that is beautiful. Solange get your life-naturally,
We as women who have decided that for whatever reason we won’t chemically alter our hair should stand-shoulder to shoulder- stand and be authentically true to ourselves. We are all different in every way, but we are all embracing our God given crown the way it was given to us…so let’s embrace what we do share and embrace our fellow naturals. It’s so simple…get your natural on anyway you choose.
it seems like there is always commotion in the natural community. we should all just go back to relaxers, at least we never had all this hair type arguments and what not..some naturals are really annoying..mind your own business and let ppl wear their hair the way they want to be it wig,weave or out..seesssh!!
I have to say that I think that typing hair is necessary to know what certain products will do. What I use on my hair will not necessarily work the same way on somebody else’s hair who is curlier or straighter that mine.
I don’t think hair typing degrades, I think it educates. It sure helped me alot. My hair grew in 2 years from my collar bone to past my cleavage. Before knowing the hair types, it was at a standstill for 8 years. Now, it won’t stop growing. Because I can see who has the same type and what products are used. So, hair typing is very educational, for me.
I went natural after thinking about it for years. I do not know what the hold up stemmed from, but I have never felt so free. I love Solange’s hair and her style choices. She inspires me because she did not go “natural” based on a movement. It was more or less based on economics. My decision was based on health and economics, as well as showing my daughter to embrace herself fully by leading by example. All of this hair type hype and good hair debate really makes me physically ill. It is like we as a people have this innate drive to compare one to the other. Light skin, dark skin; good hair, bad hair. Its enough to make me puke. Get over your selves and learn to truly appreciate uniqueness in one another. #praisingGodthatwhenhemademehebrokethemold. There is no other you
Confession: I wanted to see Solange’s hair texture. Not because I wanted to categorize her as being superior (having “good hair) or less superior (not having “good hair”) which is clearly not true, but because I wanted to see progress. I wanted to be encouraged a sister out there with kinky curly hair rockin’ it with boldness. That’s super encouraging!!! It’s the kind of thing that sends adrenaline rushing through your body. Rockin’ her God given beauty!!! No matter the curl type. However in today’s culture there is still much approving of doing this only when your natural beauty fits the status quo of whats been considered acceptable as beauty.
