Solange Knowles Shaves Her Head: Love It or Hate It?

SHE LOOKS LIKE A BOY…. BUT TO EACH ITS OWN

I’m sorry, but Solange is whack and she tries to hard… There’s a difference between making a fashion statement and going too far, which she has done here.

HATE IT

Seriously what’s with all these hollywood girls shaving their heads or part of their heads??? They need to just leave their hair alone.

Oy!…beedy de bees…

What was she thinking !!! It looks absolutely horrible and ages her alot.Lets hope it grows back quickly for her sake….Ughhh

The shaved hair not for everyone…Hate it!

does it matter. she can get a weave tomorrow

Sorry, but I really do not like the new do. Please!

LOVE IT!!!!

I am not normally a fan of this hair style on women, but it really works for her! I think she looks really cute!!

Yuck, she is much too attractive with her Hair..Hope it grows back fast!

I don’t see the point in shaving off your hair and then throwing on a wig when you’re out or at a function….??

Loves it. More of us black women should follow Solange’s path.

Honestly, she looks more like a he than a woman now. It’s not the cut though, it’s the shaving with her lips. Perhaps it’s just a bad picture, however, I think she looked better with longer locks.

hate it very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhh no, as you can see..she is not a pretty girl with long hair but it helped her appearance a little. Now with short her she is definately not pretty and looks like a dude. Lady looks like a Dude.

wtf? she looks like Orlando Jones.

its not the bom! but its ok!!

really dont like it but if she does then she can own it lol

I like the more natural look on people. The shaved head is keeping it real instead of wearing a wig. I like it.

Yuck! She just looks more like a man than before

whatever…..

It is not cute at all. Amber Rose is the only one that can pull that look off right now and look great. Please cover it up. Is she going through something and needed to purge maybe she should have thrown up instead.

Let us not forget she is an individual. Then I took a closer look. She looks like Mos Def, go head look at her, it’s Mos Def.

Anyway let’s remember she is an individual, she is an Artist, she has the freedom to explore various looks and opportunities. No one got killed or hurt. All in all she can still throw on a week, let’s face it all the hair that WAS there, wasn’t hers anyway……nowhatimean?

CORRECTION: “All in all she can STILL THROW ON A WIG…….”

Not a fan, but not really a fan of that wig in that picture either. Kind of a toss up, but I like women with hair. Agree—to each their own.

She doesn’t look bad. She kind of look like Jada Pinkett-Smith.

EWWW!!!! SHE JUST GAVE US MORE REASON TO KEEP PAYING ATTENTION TO HER SISTER.

I like it! She looks unique and I think it fits her perfectly! She looks very pretty!

Solange please . . . U and Cassie’s albums will not sell anymore than 2 copies regardless of your haircut

She looks like Bill Cosby! Seriously!

hate it

ok seriously what in the world is wrong with hair? oh my god! some people look real cute with no hair, but come on? why would she wanna do that? i am just saying in my own personal opinion. why? well she looks OK with it.:/ but atleast get a short hair cut. but if it is what she wanna do then go ahead girl. peace ;)

hate it and love it! FYI victoria beckham started the short hair trend even Riri admited she got the idea from her!

Eww! Hate it. That look does not work for her. Girl, go get some weave!

[...] Beyoncé’s little sister Solange Knowles has shaved her head, as if making some sort of desperate cry for attention. Maybe her hair was always like this and she just wore wigs in the past, but going out sans weave was surely premeditated, and a significant fashion statement. It confirms the head-shaving trend — started by Alice Dellal, perpetuated by Amber Rose — has legs that won’t quit. In the past few weeks we’ve seen Cassie shave half her head and Rihanna shave off the bottom part of her hair. Hair has gone the way of pants as the latest bullet point on Fashion’s Endangered Species List. In times like these we must stick together. And be brave. [StyleWatch/People] [...]

Not like she had real hair in the beginning! I bet she’s always been bald, but wore a weave!!

Aaaah hmmm. I’m stuck. Not sure what to say on this one.

I see where she was going with it…but not feelin it

She look like a ligh skin Orlando Jones

She does not pull of the short hair look at all!!!! She should have left that for Halle Berry and Jada Pinket

Who really cares? She’s untalented and tries to ride her sister coat tails!

Umm, is this a joke?

One thing about “Black Women” we are very versatile and soon there will be others mirroring Ms. Solange ,so I say Sista do your thang.

I love it!! i just got my hair done like that in june its cute in her who said sexy meant only long flowing hair plus she is a mom sometimes we have more important things to do with our time like spend it with our kids than sitting for hours doing hair you go boo the look is great

let me start off by saying i love her song T.O.N.Y. But Hate her new look. if you are going to do something like that, get a fade or something. she ant even got a line up. WTF was she thinking.TONY must have made her do it. LMAO…. well now she know what she looks like without hair…………. funny looking. ………..lmao… she use to be really sexy, till now…………

love it :-)

I THINK SHE LOOKS SEXY SEXY SASSY

I absolutely love her and the new look.

HATE IT shes trying to be like beyonce

I love it!!! This is a style that a lot of us black women wear. And she didn’t cut “her” long hair off; it was a weave/wig anyway!! Once she starts brushing it and get it used to being that shorts, those curls will turn to waves (if that’s what she wants) and she will have a bad ass fade!!! Gon’ girl!

I am sorry but this is the worst still she could have done. She looks like a nappy headed boy!

sounds like you like boys Chris.

Looks great on her!

omg she needs to stop!!!! this looks crazy!!

The idea of low and natural hair is great. She shouldn’t feel compelled to weaves and wigs just to make a bunch of loser sometime-ish fans feel happy with their own mediocrity and inadequacies as to why they judge celebrities in the first place. However, her cut itself is bad. She needs a better barber who can clean it up, make it even and edge it really nicely to compliment her face.

she just took off her wig, what’s the problem.

SHE LOOKS LIKE A CRACKHEAD, LOOKING FOR HER CRACK!!

To the commenters that remarked how it was great that black women are giving up the lace front wigs…its not exclusive to black women. Hollywood is full of women with wigs and weaves…no matter what race.

She looks good with her TWA (teeny weeny afro). Go little sis.

I agree with Jess, Solange tries way too hard to make a statement

HATE it.

WOW , SHE HAS GONE TOO FAR, SHE PROBABLY DECIDED IT WAS TOO MUCH TO PAY FOR HER WEAVE , AND DECIDED TO SAVE MONEY FOR HER SON’S EDUCATION,BECAUSE SHE IS NOT SELLING THAT MANY RECORDS AS A SINGER. YOU NOTICED THAT ONE WHO ARE DOING THIS ARE NOT THAT HOT……

Obviously, she had her reasons for shaving off her hair. Maybe she just wants to be recognized as Solange instead of BEYONCE’S little sister all the time… CANN? YOUU? DIGG? ITTTT?

Leave the woman alone!

um she looks like a guy :S

it looks better than that picture with the wig. i say keep it up.

She is beautiful and her beauty makes her hair look good!!!!!Don’t hate cause you all can’t rock it!!!HaterS!!!!

Hate It! She looks like a young boy

i think if she likes it i luv it.

girl you look a mess!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t like it…what was she thinking

If Solange had some exagerated wig or weave flowing down her back would we be making comments…NO. It’s refreshing to see a sista who’s comfortable in her own skin. I rock a short natural and I see nothing wrong with it. What a woman choses to with her hair is her business!

Looks sharp-(not bald)! She’s just looking for her own identity& style.

Maybe it’d be alright with a different pair of sunglasses….

[...] Solange Knowles Shaves Her Head: Love It or Hate It? – Style News … [...]

why is everyone shaving their heads..or half of their hair off..??

Maybe she’s ditching the chemical locks and getting ready for growing a natural do (surely all the hair care snobs can appreciate that).

She didn’t shave anything, all she did was to take off the wig. Most of us know that many celebrities sport a lace wig which looks as though the hair is growing out of the scalp. In a few months, she’ll toss another one on and people will talk about how fast her hair grew back. Anyone remember Britney Spears? After shaving her head, a couple of months later, it was back at her shoulders. Definitely did not grow back that fast.

Eww

O LOOK ITS ANOTHER JADA, WILL SMITHS WIFE

Solange – DO YOUR THING! Everyone is so stuck on long hair of which most of it is either weaved or a wig. People are too quick to accept hair enhancements not realizing, what’s up under all the glam. Shakespear said it best: TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE. Do what makes you feel good – there’s always going to be someone who likes what you do and some who don’t. From one Texas girl to another…..BE YOU!!!

There should be a law which prohibits a woman from shaving her head. I think it is the worst look possible. It just seems wrong.

I love that hair cut,you are rocking It and don’t care what the world says.Hair should not be an issue In this world.There are all lenghts and you can do all styles.Hope you sister do the same.

lol its not that cool on her but hey if she like it then it is what it is go girl.

i like it.awesome.new style just like Bianca in American Next Top model.i like it.wow.

Lets get real folks she was wearing wigs anyway. All those weaves broke her hair off. She is one of MANY stars who are bald or losT most of their hair from wearing those weaves that damage the hair so badly. Beyonce is the same way.

O.K….Now this is TOO MUCH!!!….Solange,Girl if your NERVES are bad? Then I advise you to seek therapy!…He’s not worth it!!….LOL

she looks like steve eirkel … DID I DO THAT! hahaha

I am thinking she didn’t have that much hair to start off with anyway. So to go as low as she did… so what. She isn’t a cute girl to start with and the new “do” does nothing for her but got her some attention. Good move but you have to do a heck of a lot more to get in like your sis girlie!!

in America if you do not have hair you are not sexy – hence black people getting the Indian hair. Only person I have noticed who is happy with her hair is Halley Barry

As usual, she is trying to get attention!! She looks so dumb, I dont like this look on her. On second thought, all of these celebrities wear weaves, lace wigs etc. its possible she has always been bald and just took her weave off!! ..It has been humid the past couple of weeks maybe she got hot??..LOL??!!

Texture makes all the difference in the world.
Women not just BLACK WOMEN wear weaves and wigs to protect their real hair from all the processing that takes place when they go to the salon. Have any of you people seen the early Knowles family videos on how Destiny’s Child got started. Both Solange and Beyonce had long hair!

Omg I know Cassie is mad!
Everyone is copying off of her.

Hate it!

She wore a weave anyway so how much hair did she really cut off..I think that it looks whack but that is what she wanted to do..I guess she will be bald a long time because people are always talking about and will ask about Beyonce..

HOT! HOT! HOT!

nah, don’t like it on her, though i like short hair cuts.

She look like she did it at home. The need to get a barber to edge it up. But other than that it looks good on her.

She looks like a TRANNY! Put your hands up.

HATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She needs to shave her mustache, too!

its, not looking so good…but she can get a wig to cover it up & since she’s doing it for charity – thats great!

She is just growing out her natural hair. Black women do that all of the time there is nothing wrong with that.

I LOVE IT. IM TIRED OF SEEING ALL THAT WEAVE AND EVERYBODY NEEDS TO DO WHATS BEST FOR THEM. IT’S TO HOT FOR LONG HAIR. GO GIRL!

WTF??? OMG!!! She looks a hot mess! Only a select few can rock a baldie or fade and she ain’t hardly one! Her hair wasn’t that fab to start. She is trying to get out of B’s shadow by doing this kind of stuff. Better stay in that shadow, girl!

i dont understand why she would shave her head for being asked about her sister- how does she think she got her 15 minutes in the first place?! r u really that desperate for attention?

she looks like a little boy. now her kid will think he has 2 daddies…

Ok I give her props for doing it. I too have the desire to cut and/or shave my head. What stops me? Everything does not look good on everybody and this style DOES NOT suit her. In MY opinion.

I think that solange looks beauiful no matter what her hair looks like. people always jugde you by your looks instend of looking on what the inside of a person and that the problem with people today you always judge on look instend of looking on what’s the inside of a person is that what you should be judging. i think anybody who has that much braveness to cut off all there hair is not only strong but most inmportant for her, her black is beauiful and strong at the same time.

To wear your hair that short requires an “attitude” and confidence in one’s self. She certainly carries it well. Good for her. If, by chance, she did it for purely self-promotion reasons and attention, her new ‘do gets lost in translation, I suppose. Remember,she does have Beyonce for some fierce (Sasha)competition. I personally thinks she looks good with it…she has good bone structure and a pretty face……

shes a buttaface

a buttaface

but why? she doesnt look bad its hair it will grow back

I would take ANY STYLE over all of the weaves and wigs that they wear !!!!!

beaty is in the eye of the beholder :)

She looks like Jay-Z.

she is not the best looking thing out there so whether her hair is short, bald or long she just doenn’t look good so whatever.

in the words of damon wayans, “hated it!”

hate it.her hair is considered “nappy”

To each it’s own, there may be a whole lot of shaved head Hollywoods under those weaves So leave her alone she’s beautiful.

I think she looks gud with the new doo, but she need to lose the shades, they dont do her face or doo any justice, gives her a lost look

looks bad

SOLangel is a good artist. people try to make a beyonce out of her instead of respecting her for who she is.SHE IS NOT BEYONCE…she is a talented artist with a progressive flavor to her music. if she is to be marketed her genre is not pop music. beyonce is the entertainer and Solange is the soul/honesty.She doesn’t need to be accepted by all cause everyone doesn’t have the heart to delve into the soul/light/truth of themselves.

she needs to keep that under wraps!!! what was she thinking

I like her new look. It frees her to be who she really is. Who are we to determine beauty and judge someone’s beauty by the hair? The real hair was probably damaged and she’s giving it a renewal/ break. Wigs work…keep the real hair healthy and wear wigs when you want society to judge your beauty.

Hate it! She looks like a boy with that shaved head.

I must say it certainly makes her look older, but I envy the thought of not “needing” to have long hair that flows for the guys to pant over. If she likes it, then I’m all for it. I personally think tall slender women look ravishing with a buzz cut.

If she wears some flashy earrings, fierce makeup and a fierce outfit and some “Confidence” Then I will like it…but I don’t think that’s a good picture to judge, because she is VERY beautiful and her features will allow her to still look young and fresh, but she is very beautiful anyway. It’s her life, her money and her reputation.

I like it. Great for the summer!

makes her look much older. Horrible choice, it looks like shes balding, does not make her look pretty!!!

I kinda of understand what she’s trying to say. But truth be told her sister is ther famous one. Just like the Jackson People 1st ask about Michael then Janet. Lil Sister can’t compete at this time. There’s been to much on a spotlight Put on Big sister. Now as far as the hair is concerned if she likes I love. I wouldn’t have done it. She does look a bit like a boy!!!!! later

I hate it!!! why on earth if she is all about “vagina power” would she cut her hair to look like a man?

NOW SHE REALLY LOOKS LIKE A FN MAN!!!!! lmao!!!!

She is a woman who needs her hair it is more flattering to her face more becoming sweetie hope it grows back soon.

ugh, i loved their hair before they shaved it…

She looks like she cut her hair. What is the big deal..? It is not odd for african american women to cut close to the head. She looks like she is just making a change.

Classic attention seeking behaviors! Since my sister has eclipsed me my WHOLE life. Lets try to get some focus back on me with my whacked out hair. Grow up Solange sweety! The sibling rivalry is played out and not very Hollywood friendly. Just ask Venus and Serena!

She needs attention, it’s sad being Beyonce’s sister and living inside her shadows there is no escape.

I don’t see why it’s such a big deal, its not like she wore her own natural hair to begin with.

It looks alright on her.

SHE NEVER SHAVED HER HEAD SHE JUST TOOK OFF THAT WEAVE THAT’S ALL SHE DID BEYONCE GOT SHORT HAIR TOO PEOPLE WE GOTTA DO BETTER WE HAVE TO KNOW WHATS REAL WHATS FAKE IN THIS BUSINESS ITS CALLED GOOD P.R. AND IMAGE

she looks great in this picture – pretty

like a female Orlando jONES

i think she has real cajones for doing it…forget all that long fake hair!

I love her new hair Do. I hope she inspire more black women to wear their own hair.Love you Solange you look great!!!

Solange has had her whole head shaven off 2 times before this. There’s pictures of her at her baby shower with a very similar low cut. Believe me she’s not new to this, nor is she following a trend she’s dancing to her own drum.

Cassie, however is following a trend because she got that half shaved head look from supermodel Alice Dellal (look her up) who’s been rocking that look for years!

Poor thing is trying to get some attention so she shaved her head.

Sometimes celebrities need to do something to bring their name back into the “eyes” of the world because they are fast dying. I think Solange is soo busy trying to run away from the hype of not being able to “fill her sister’s shoes” (which must be sad and not fair, all the same) that she felt she could always just wear a wig if the outcome didn’t work. Unfortunately, she should have never put herself out there to look like a man, and a not very pretty one, at that. I know some pics just don’t do you justice sometimes, but she looks like my cousin Gerald! But to each his own. She is the one who has to walk in those shoes everyday.

with all her resourses she could of set a major trend. this just say f…. it no out line no color no shape no nothin… but oh Brittney did it 1st

Hate her~hate her haircut~
Solange~FYI, no matter what you do~you ARE just Beyonce’s sister. Ride her coattail honey, because the rest of your family sure does. Loser

She should have left her hair the way it was. If she’s trying to distance herself from looking like her sister, I really don’t think people care. Now she just looks like she has a little peanut head.

I think she can do what she feels, we as ppl have that right. We are living for our self and/kids if u have kids. I dont see nothing wrong it the hair cut. WE are NOT taking care of her or her child, So bottom line if she is happy then fu** what everybody else has to say. On top of that she is a grown a** woman and she has her reason for what ever she does in life. I think more power to her.

Love it!

I love natural hair but this cut needs help. Perhaps she should visit a good barber, add some color and apply a little makeup.

wow like martin said oh beety de beed !!!!!!!!!!!her hair is a wreck up from the neck up !!!!!! 4 sho hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LADY

Gotta put a copy of Solange near my hair shears as a deterrent!

i like the way she look. i like girl with short hair.

Its cute short but she should dye her hair and get a texture perm

no no no. she looks much older than her years.

great!! go for what you like and feels good, remember most posters are informed by the media what to like and don’t have an fing opinion anyways!

Maybe it was for health reasons. Either way It looks good and to each its own. I’m saying a prayer just in case it was done for medical reasons. God Bless you and your family Solange!!!!

With the right outfit & accessories, she can pull it off!

She looks like the actor Orlando Jones now.

What’s up with all of the negativity? The woman has the right to do with her hair what she pleases. She does not need permission from the masses or the fashion industry to express herself. I admire her, so much, for having the courage to be different! Solange, I like it! I think you’re beautiful with or without the hair! It’s obvious that you think for yourself…continue doing you…that’s the best example you can set. Peace Queen!

Ewwww Hate It

If she likes it, then that’s great. I think she’s a fine young woman. If she decides she wants to have long hair, it grows, and there is always wigs.

I just finished reading the rest of the comments and I feel saddened to come across so many mean words. Everyday, every moment, the Creator blesses us all with the opportunity to show love…through respect, compassion, understanding, etc. There are loving ways to express dislike. No one has to insult or frown upon her. I do not know why she chose to cut her hair and I am alright with that. She may not be concerned with anyone’s opinion. If she is…that’s ok too. If it is for attention, can’t we all understand it? Haven’t we all wanted someone’s attention at some point in our lives? Yes, yes, yes. She is a human being with feelings and we all are. None of us like to be criticized…none of us! She is here, on this Earth, as an expression of the Creator. We honor the Creator when we honor our true Self, our fellow human beings, and the rest of creation. You, who have commented so harshly, are all beautiful reflections of the Creator. However, you have chosen to operate from a not-so-beautiful space. Let’s do better Spirits…please.

her head looks like a dirty tennis ball.

She looks like a Orlando Jones, you the music teacher from Drumline, (Dr. Lee). Not sure of the look she was going for here, she might have well gone completely shaved. If this is in protest for reporters asking her questions about her sister…she should have taken a diffent route. This won’t stop reporters from wanting to talk to her about Beyonce, but they may be afraid to approach her in fear of it being Orlando Jones!

wow..she looks like a dude!!!…yuk!!

She looks like she can fit in with the people that live on the streets. she was so beautiful and now this. I loved her beauty I looked up to her style. I hate it.

Its a reason for everything

solange plzzzz don’t listen to any of these haters…..i LOVE your hair…..i have always thought about cutting mine and going natural you have just encouraged me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well at least she didn’t get pregnant for attention. (whoops did that already)

She looks like a drag queen on and off day without his wig!

It wouldn’t look so bad if she would relax it

IMHO she is rockin’ it! I luv the fact that she is doing something different. There are too many wonder weaves in the world already! I hope the baldie trend catches on with more women in real life. A lot of white chicks would look good this way too. Its nice and neat!

hate it! she looks like a boy. i dont see why she would shave her head then go and put wigs on. If she was gonna do all that she should have just left her real hair alone.

I LOVE HER HAIR!! Solange, wear your hair proud girl and keep doing the thing..rep. for the baldheaded gurls!!

I think Solang is Whack for this one. She doesnt have a good enough texture of hair to pull this off and her hairline is non-exsitant. This makes her look old…What made her go and get the Miah Angelou ? lol. That’s the only other person who has this hair but.

If you see clearly, her scalp is damaged by all the weaves, lacefront and chemical treatment.. It rips out all her natural hair.. and you could see bald spots.. She is balding .At this point, I can guarantee you that she is seeking treatment for her hair.

she looks a mess im so mad at her, lala new haircut looks cute….

it’s cool but her barber gotta be dope!!!it looks as though she did it herself, she need a lining BAD!!!!

She Look A Hot Ass Mess…I Guess She Was Goin Fa Dat Ratchet Ass African Look!

hey solange you and your sister are my #1 fan in this world any time I would love to meet ya’ll in person and I am from ethiopia. love ya’ll to death. have 2 kids and husband. am not a stocker in case you want to know. I love bring it on movie of yours. LOL

Hate it…

i think she looks a hot mess because she looks like a boy and did u see those beeds i her head them nappy beeds

Why do you all feel that this young woman needs your
Validation. And yes woman of color it comes a time in our lives
In which we have to put those superfacial ways behind us. Stop hiding behind the wigs and accessive make-up… Grow up; that’s what Solange is doing.

She has natural beauty…

She looks FANTASTIC!!!!!!! This haircut completely fits her and separates her from her sister! Good for her!!!!!

It’s nice to see a woman not hide behind a thick coat of makeup, extensions, and mis-matched hair dyes. She looks more exotic with her natural hair, instead of looking like some creepy mannequin with a wig.

At first I just saw the pic…and I though that Orlando Jones had gotten into some skin lightening cream. I had click and read the article to figure out who this was. The hair cut had the possibility of being cute…but something went askew with the hairline and the crazy sunglasses…sorry…need a wig.

Love it.am actually shocked many ppl prefer black women wear these fake hairs on their heads. Im glad here in Africa no one cares if you cut your hair.We are beautiful with our natural hair, long and short.

No offnse though but u should have kept your heAd long and blondish red and you look like a boy with your bald head
