One thing’s for sure, two thing’s for certain: SZA gives us good vibes and music. While we can relate to her songs from her two albums, Ctrl and SOS, the Grammy-winning singer loves to show off her head-turning hair looks. And for good reason.
Do you remember when all of us would turn on the TV’s and put on 106 & Park? The Ctrl singer rocked her natural long curly hair in one episode with no makeup. Then, she rocked her big curls at the 2014 Maverick Music Festival. Additionally, there have been many times on Instagram where she’s showcased a variety of wigs—ranging from pink to orange to blue hairstyles.
Later, she rocked her hair in a top-knot updo at the 2017 BET Awards. She also made her first appearance at the 2018 Met Gala with loose curls. And, let’s not forget when she totally owned the yellow hair at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, performing “Kiss Me More” with Doja Cat, either.
We could go on, but you get the picture. SZA is constantly raising the bar, not only musically, but also hair-wise—reminding us of the beauty and range of Black women.
In honor of her 35th birthday, today, below are a few of our favorite SZA hair moments.
