Darkyonce -The Fierce Beyoncé Hair Color We LOVE!
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!

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.

Nicki Minaj Red Hair -Spotted During MONSE Spring 2019 NYFW Show
The thing about fashion week is that if you dress as a complete and total bore NO ONE will even notice your existence; which is why it brings out and encourages everyone’s style A-game. It’s not just about the dress, or shoes and undeniably chic handbag. A true NYFW week superstar has to look like they walked right out of a magazine editorial from their head, right down to their toes. Case in point, the Nicki Minaj red hair sighting that caused an “all eyes on me” collision at the MONSE Spring 2019 show.
Nicki Minaj Red Hair -Spotted During MONSE Spring 2019 NYFW Show
The MONSE couture show was indeed captivating in itself. Models drifted down the runway in prints, trench coats, re-imagined asymmetrical tops/dresses and hybrid sweater hoodies with a nautical “rope” touch. However, the front row could not be ignored, for a particular rapper did not come to just sit and look pretty; she made a fabulous hair statement!
From any angle onlookers could witness and attest that Nicki’s rouge tresses had more edge than a knife blade. It was fierce, modern and effortlessly voguish. Nonetheless, Minaj from the start has not tried to play the fashion week game safe.
She’s worn purple hair, long pink waves, platinum blonde, a short blonde bob cut with multi-color accents; the new red AND it hasn’t even been a full 7 day week yet. A style risk-taker? Oh, you bet she is, and that’s why she is Queen.
So then, are you feeling Miss Nicki’s bold red strands? Would you ever give it a try?
