Darkyonce -The Fierce Beyoncé Hair Color We LOVE!

Arianne Suggs May 11, 2019May 11, 2019

The return of Darkyonce was everything we wanted, hoped for and dreamt of. Yes, Beyoncé is a beautiful woman, but we would be completely lying if we said we didn’t love her with darker toned hair.

For a couple of decades now, Bey has become known for several signature things…observe:

hard dancing,

a leotard,

vocals

and of course, blonde tresses.

In the hairstyle department… It doesn’t matter if her strands have been short, long, curly or straight. The constant of her look has consistently been to be a blonde.

However, it’s not a bad thing in any way. It’s a look Mrs. Carter has effortlessly maintained through multiple albums, tours, pregnancies and award seasons. Plus, heck, don’t blondes have more fun? (We’ll answer that, at times yes lol).

And fun she has definitely had with her looks. The queen always seems to dance to the beat of her own drum when it comes to her personal style and flair.

Darkyonce -The Fierce Beyoncé Hair Color We LOVE!

So then, where did the return of dark hair Beyoncé occur? The singer and her hip hop mogul husband, Jay Z, were spotted at a Houston Rockets game. The couple sat court side catching plenty of fan and camera attention.

Beyoncé wore an eye-popping ensemble by Marine Serre. Instantly, her “moon” printed leggings became a couture hot topic. While most of us rock a pair between $20-$50; Queen Bey did it up! She hit the scene in the Marine Serre Women’s Moon-Print Footed Leggings in Black which retails for… wait for it… $515.

Yes, that was just the price of the Queen’s leggings. Oh us peasants (Lol). Nevertheless, if it’s been a good month and you’d like to splurge on Beyoncé’s leggings you can find them online at Barney’s New York.

However, we digress. This posting is supposed to be about hair. You see, we love Beyoncé with darker hair because it we believe it brings out her beautiful features. Her eyes, cheeks and skin tone just seem to pop more.

We’re glad she brought it back after a long dark hair sighting drought. How long she’ll keep it remains to be seen. Nonetheless, it’s a great look that can’t be ignored. Welcome back Darkyonce we missed you!

Janet Jackson Hairstyle -Her New Curly Look for the New Year!

ArianneUpdated on January 31, 2019January 31, 2019

Serious question… is anyone else getting major Velvet Rope vibes? This week, Ms. Jackson debuted a new hair look and social media completely lost it. Everyone seems to stan an unproblematic queen as well as the Janet Jackson Hairstyle for 2019. Are you feeling her new fabulous curls?

Janet Jackson Hairstyle -Her New Curly Look for the New Year

At first glance, Janet’s curly do’ seems to be a modern take on an old classic. If you recall back when Got ’til It’s Gone, What About, Go Deep and I Get Lonely was ruling the charts; Janet rocked a head full of glamorous copper-red tone ringlets. The style is a look Janet not only used for her album cover that year, but in a plethora of videos and photoshoots.

Nevertheless, Jackson is back to performing and she seems to be back to one of her iconic hairstyles, i.e. VR days. Fans got a first glance and glimpse thanks to photographer, Solaiman Fazel. Fazel captured Janet backstage getting ready before she hit the stage out west in the United States. Janet was performing in the city that never sleeps, Las Vegas.

Now while there is a hard, fast rule that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Jackson’s new look broke that unspoken standard in all of two seconds. Janet Jackson posted a pic of herself posed in front of a mirror in all her curl glory with the caption, “New Year, new look.”

Will this iconic queen keep this look for the rest of the year? Probably not, because she is the master of reinvention. However, for now we love it and are glad to still she here switching up her chic hair game.

Scam on Instagram: Wig Scammers, Fake Ads and Fake Hair Accounts

ArianneUpdated on January 12, 2019January 12, 2019

There is a huge scam on Instagram right now and it involves wigs, fake ads; and fake hair accounts. Have you seen them? Most likely, you have.

These awful folks have been following and spreading their harmful lies for the last few months. Worst part, is that Instagram has done absolutely nothing about it. These scammers are still roaming free looking for their next victim.

However, YOU do not have to be a casualty and get conned out of your coins. All you have to do is be aware of what’s going on; and be sure not to get involved with such people, ads or accounts. What signs should you look for?

Scam on Instagram: Wig Scammers, Fake Ads and Fake Hair Accounts

Influencer Brittanie Evans laid it all out on the table in order to protect her fans as well as other hair enthusiasts. She says,

“Seriously, Instagram! I see so many hair stylist, wig makers; and wig review videos STOLEN and used to scam people out of their money — on Instagram! Every day, I am followed by dozens and dozens of fake hair pages. All with the same photos and stolen pictures.

I have seen ads where they will crop the video and put their fake business name or steal a review video; and say the hair is theirs. I mean, sometimes they don’t even care if the video has another business name on it. They will steal it and advertise its their wig for $20. Then you read the comments and all the women are complaining that they ordered and they received a fake shiny Party City wig.

It’s beyond ridiculous. I report every fake ad and page that I see but there are so many and more with every scroll. These fake pages have even purchased comments and likes to further scam you into thinking they are real. AND if that doesn’t work, they have gone so far to create an account to advertise another “fake” account in the stolen ad video comments. IT”S CRAZY! I am so sick of this. Do something about it, Instagram!”

Scam on Instagram: Wig Scammers, Fake Ads and Fake Hair Accounts (Continued)

As one can see, there is some major foul play going on the Gram. Plus, with lace front wigs and extensions being so trendy, that leaves a lot of women vulnerable to being taken advantage of and suffering a hair “L.”

Nevertheless, as Brittanie stated, while online you have to be very mindful of stolen images, fake users and fake comments. So far these scams are still very prevalent on Instagram so BEWARE. Watch out for yourself and your fellow girlfriend; so that you can keep your cash instead of getting sent some fake trash.
