We are no strangers to celebs who tweet photos of their real hair in an effort to prove to us that they are either not bald or don’t need to wear weaves. That trend doesn’t look like it’s going to stop any time soon either.
We all remember the photo that Nicki Minaj tweeted of her hair back in 2012 with the words ‘No chemicals. No perm.’ right?
At the time a Madame Noire writer took issue with it because Nicki did not show her face in the picture.
Of course, this photo did not include her face, so you’re just supposed to assume that this is her and her hair.
Along with folks like Beyoncé, Nicki’s real head of hair is one of those things many folks have been wanting to see (like Big Foot).
Now a few days ago on the 20th March, Nicki was back tweeting about her mane complete with picture of her showing off her grazing waist length hair. This time she simply said #LongHairDontCare #HangTime #ImaWearItOutWhenItTouchesMyASS =P
Quick as a shot Madame Noire was giving side eye and doubting the authenticity of the picture because Nicki again chose not to show her face in the picture.
Maybe Nicki didn’t get the memo or she simply doesn’t care to prove that the beautiful tresses are hers.
Maybe I’m naive but I tend to believe what I am told (and a lot of what I read too) and although it’s safe to say that some things that you read on line should be taken with a grain of salt, I find it implausible that anyone would go to the trouble that Nicki has to tweet hair that’s not her own . . . twice.
Whether or not it’s her real hair, it probably doesn’t even matter. One commenter wrote:
If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?
If your beautiful hair is constantly under wigs* and no one sees it, does it make a difference to anyone besides yourself?
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
I know I’m gonna get grief for this but…who the hell cares? :/
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
Always some chick with her back turn towards the camera showing her hair but what proof do we have that its her? And again…..even if it was……WHO CARES? LOL
Jonae D Spencer says
Who cares. Plus it looks like she needs a trim what’s long hair if it ain’t all healthy
HisDestiny Forevvr says
her hair may not need a trim—she looks like she has a layered cut–it didnt get that long by being split ends
Affouet Marie says
if her hair was not healthy it wouldnt be that long. you are just bitter jealous…go get yourself a shampoo to begin with.
HisDestiny Forevvr says
lol^^ ok
Wendy Jean-Louis says
jonae i guess you are being accused og being a hater too. lol some people just so quick to jump and bark.
Carolyn says
It actually is hers. Theres another photo she has online facing forward and sideways. Kinda like she got out the shower or something.
Monique Scott'Office Williams says
Love it! I dont care to much for nicki but I doubt she would post a pic of someone else to portray her. She admires her self to much. Anyway beautiful hair even when she gets a trum still long and beautiful
Latasha Lacking says
It’s thin!!! Sick of seeing it already lol
Martha Patterson says
I guess she’s trying to prove a point . She is much better looking with her on hair . She looks like she has good, long hair it was long when she was small. A good grade of hair don’t just go away . My daughters hair is longer than that not everybody wear weaves.
Jonae D Spencer says
It is thin and she has split ends up to her shoulders. Its not even, even. Im just tired of seeing it .
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
Raven Maxwell, apparently YOU do, you cared enough to comment didn’t you?? Sit down!
ويلسون ميني says
My God ladies!! Do you have anything positive to say?!! I would rather see her real untrimmed thin hair than that pink wig!
Fallon Nicole says
So many haters!! Why must we tear another woman down?????
HisDestiny Forevvr says
cuz these dummies dont know sugar about hair—while nicki is cutting her split ends to grow-in the layer cut style-ppl on here is going wt the mini afro wt the hopes of what shes doing—dumb
Monique Scott'Office Williams says
Exactly Fallon Nicole
Jonae D Spencer says
Who’s hating? Im entitled to my opinion just like the next person.
June Burton says
I Love seeing her flaunt her natural hair, it could use some work like simple cutting of dead ends but overall her hair is gorgeous! Gone head Nicki and show it off I’m not mad at cha. LOL
Love Dee says
Jonae D spread positivity. What is it with black women? Are you upset that your hair is barely past your shoulders? Nice look, Nicki! pretty hair!
Wendy Jean-Louis says
So saying it has split ends make us haters? Maybe some of you guys bred to stop bring in denial and stop accusing people of being haters. It seems like you don’t know the difference between the truth and a hater.
Love Dee says
And to other, if you don’t care.. why comment?
Candace Reed says
I usually dont comment on things I dont care about or have no interest in… #IJS. I like the more natural look on her and hope she keeps it! Alhough I know the wigs etc are for show.
Ekco Carter says
I am sooo tired of seeing this type of post. Some people act like Black women can’t grow long healthy hair.
Paulla Denas says
A lot of black women have long hair too.
Monique Scott'Office Williams says
This page is about black hair. If you dont like it why are you even apart of this page. Maybe if it was a picture of a bald chick with hair shorter than yours, you would then have a positive comment.
Smh
HisDestiny Forevvr says
ok—-
Jonae D Spencer says
Lol upset? Whyyyyy ?? I choose to keep my hair this length because its easier for me. If i state my opinion, i state my opinion. I didn’t get on here and say she’s ugly & etc. I said Im tired of her posting pics . People kill me labeling everyone who’s opinion that is not of theirs a “hater”
Niki's Page says
You are a hater, but if I looked like you I would be too…If you don’t like her pics go to the next…
Tk Tatum Richey says
I agree an opinion is an opinion however there’s no way in hell I believe that you keep your hair that short on purpose it probly isn’t growing just my opinion and not trying to be sarcastic if it you wouldn’t be on a hair page directed towards growing hair
HisDestiny Forevvr says
lol Tk Tatum Richey SNAP**
Wendy Jean-Louis says
She needs a trim badly. That is all ends. What is the point of bragging when you showing straw
HisDestiny Forevvr says
have u ever seen a layered cut
Wendy Jean-Louis says
That is no way layered.
Shabz Maua says
Jealous
Wendy Jean-Louis says
Of what? Been there done the long hair thing. Growing up my hair was half way down my back and way thicker. I actually prefer short hair . You can’t be jealous of something you don’t want
HisDestiny Forevvr says
no way—r u serious—I am a stylist and has had my hair in a LONG LAYERED cut for years—n YES nicki minaj has a good ass razor layered cut—-u r jealous–thats y u still got so much to say—u can clearly see her multiple lengths of hair–n the middle of the hair tapers into a point—long layer cut—sure u never had one
HisDestiny Forevvr says
ppl be on a site to grow out hair but actin like they dont want long hair—smh
Wendy Jean-Louis says
His destiny jealous of what? I don’t desire to have long hair. Like I said can only be jealous if she has something I want. Maybe if she had thick hair but there is nothing desirable about string. I call her hair string and I am jealous. Unless you are a psychic or something plz do yourself a favour and hush. N I only here on this rite for healthy tips
Wendy Jean-Louis says
Layering or not still looks shot. It’s funny how when you say something, stupid women like you obviously think someone is jealous. Assuming that someone wants something other women have. Dumb western ideology. My thing is hair come and go don’t really care for the long hair why is it so hard for idiots like you to grasp. If long hair is what I crave I don’t think I would be getting hair cuts every other year? You could dismiss yourselves now
HisDestiny Forevvr says
Lol…stupid women like me..u don’t know me…n u r displaying so much envy ur eyes r turning green…Nicki reppin for black women showing the whole entire world that black ppl can have long hair that’s not weave…n dumb ignorant females like u want to flaw it..u r such a loser for that..u obviously feed into the negative depictions of black women cuz u r playing that angry black woman role well..get lost
Wendy Jean-Louis says
turning green because i said it has ends? how is that jealous. It sort of like saying if i see a fat person and i say the truth that they are fat i am jealous? it has ends it has ends. end of story. i didnt say she is ugly, i didnt say her hair is disgusting. all i said is she has ends and need a trim. ends is nothing to brag about really. I am green about that. and yes you are stupid to think that I am green because you are stupid enough to think that because in your culture long hair is envied that means I grew up with the same mentality. Actually thick her is valued more than length where i am from. so please do carry on with your ethnocentric point of view.
Wendy Jean-Louis says
Right I am an angry black woman?? lol right maybe you are the one who image that of black women. And you got angry black woman from behind the computer screen? wow, ok miss cleo. by the way, never been in a fight, nor quarrel, or scuffle or anything but i am know for fact i am opinionated. it s funny again though because people who know me personally call me a hippie because of my calm demeanor and ability to not get angry an walk away from things. So if my opinion makes me angry then maybe you are the one who is really an angry person. and again you cant be jealous of something you dont desire. I dont think jealousy works that way, but it is nice once in a while when people judge who you are behind a computer screen. . you have to want something someone else possess to be jealous. but do carry on my little thespian. it is nice one in a while when people judge who you are behind a computer screen.
Shanda Charlyn Prescott says
Lololol dnt even girl! I can testify u had dis much hair bak in high school until u decide to grow natural!
Wendy Jean-Louis says
lol what i want to know Shanda Charlyn Prescott is how this young lady ever came to the conclusion of me being angry black woman? so basically i have to lie about what i see?
Kimisha Mathurin says
all this for what? she must be nikki minaj’s mother to defend her so! Ive seen the pic she had with her hair wet and thought it had ends too. I don’t see anything wrong with saying that! Its the truth so deal with it….and stylist my ass (all lies)! what stylist cant see ends?
Wendy Jean-Louis says
lol like we stupid my step mom is a stylist as well never saw any of her clients, layers or not looking like that. fact is fact. dont see why people get offended
Shawnika C Gadson says
It look like she needs a trim. Don’t matter if it’s long or not.
Evette Howard says
Love it
Evette Howard says
Don’t cut your ends too often…. smh
Carrie Laura-Lee Howe says
Who cares? And your right, you are very naive!
Nicole Taylor says
This picture is mad old, like months ago before she even started looking more natural smh.
Kimberley Allovadatgreen Davidson says
Your hair. Supoz to hav the same thikness from root to end so u need not post this lol u got a piece of hair in your fingrz so u need that damaged part cutoff, takapik, and then post again.
June Burton says
Maybe this is a before pic then once she get it nice and healthy she’ll post an after? Lol
HisDestiny Forevvr says
u dont know anything about LONG STYLE CUTS—n the same thickness from root to tip is a look that u can only get at home wt an UNTRAINED stylist—lmao
Karen Mukey Burks says
Wow…the thoughts of a man/woman’s true heart…funny how we speak so much doubt, negativity and hatred…if a woman was going thru chemo and her hair fell out and needed some advice/support, I wouldn’t suggest this site…geesh
Kesha Keysha Keisha says
While she does need a trim, she does have nice length and its clearly some haters on here. I like to see the natural side of celebs. Im glad she’s sharing it with us.
HisDestiny Forevvr says
y does she clearly need a trim—as a hair stylist–I see she clearly has a layered cut—smdh
PurplenPurrtee Howard says
She said in an interview last week she is done with the crazy wigs. Looking forward to a more sophisticated Nicki!
BigassAttitude Pikkachuu says
Wowwww! Nuthinbut negativity brought on by a simple picture of a womans hair. THATS SAD ….like really
Niki's Page says
You can always tell how miserable and truly jealous women are..Always so negative, nice way to start the week. I’m sure it will be worst for you haters… Smfh . Her hair is beautiful…
Kimberley Allovadatgreen Davidson says
Some ppl need to get out their feelings, u gon hear negativity throughout your lyf so r u goin to complain all the tym?, get ovrit. Some ppl need to learn truth and what it is to hate smh cuz we all can hav long hair so it aint shyt to b jealous of ijs
Hannah Re'nae says
For the people who don’t CARE wtf you waist your time to comment. Some people do the most. If you don’t have anything nice to say just keep it to yourself. It’s to early
Tylisha Nails says
That’s why I can’t deal with black women. They hates her for wigs and now hate her for snowing off her natural hair. I bet if they put up a twerk video all the ratchets would be applauding her smh.
Markisha Tingle says
When that strand touches her ass? Lol jk im glad she toned down her look tho pretty
Tanisha Ashley says
You bitches kill me lets see you flat iron those natural Brillo pads and I bet we will find all kind of shit that needs to be cut off… Can’t see ur bad ends through ur nappy ass hair oh my bad I mean ur curls lmao…
Deborah Smith says
Cutting ends realy slow the growth of hair look at it like a plant the longest part Is where the rest is growing too!!!!
Nadia Whitis says
Nice hair for a beautiful woman.
MEshell Green says
She needs to cut those ends.
MEshell Green says
Look she a beautiful girl with fake enhances.
Sakina Pecchillo says
The time and energy it took to post most of these negative comments could have been spent doing something productive/positive. FB has this little button for liking things. If you don’t then keep scrolling. Everyone is entitled to their opinion yes. However, I find it difficult to understand why women have to be so negative towards another. Especially when its unprovoked. Such is life I guess. :-/
Kimberly McCray Forte says
Beautiful hair. She looks nice .
Thorlowe Blamah says
Nice length but looks like she needs a trim!
LeeCynthia Franklin says
Maybe she likes her hair the way it is. Lots of people have long hair with split ends. At the end of the day it’s her head and she can do whatever she wants with it.
HisDestiny Forevvr says
these comments on here are upsetting—YA R SOME HATERS!! QUIT HATING—it is pure hate—everyone is saying she has split ends cuz her hair tapers off—have u EVER heard of a LONG LAYER CUT?? If u NEVER had long hair—probably not—but she clearly has a layered cut—n her hair wld not keep growing all the time if it was a split end issue—all ya get big chops just to get ya hair to “grow” which is really only stopping breakage–ignorance is bliss for some of ya—smdh
Starr Six says
Okay I get that she has long hair I have long hair through why so many pics of it tho. Its just not that serious…
Jenny JackJack says
What’s the point of the picture ? Why is she trying to prove that she has a real hair? Lots of us have real ….and?
Brittney Holland says
Black women are good for that, “She needs a trim,” line. If a female has long hair then,”She needs a trim.” Smh
Alexis VincentmartinWife Flowers says
She has pretty long hair soo glad she decided to go less N natural love her…
Shonda Skincolormocha Wilson says
O.
Kalisha Blackwill says
That last piece just might be a track
SamDe'Niyse Cooper says
Natural looks good on u!! Love the hair
Kimberley Allovadatgreen Davidson says
Grl bs the same thikness from root to tip is healthy hair you should no that and u dnt only getit at hm wrrr the hell u get your license frm u need a refreshrr
Kika Leek says
AS A LICENSED STYLIST…she DOES need a trim. She ain’t get no damn layer cut. Go troll on Miley Cyrus’ page.
Chasity Lilmama Davila says
It would look way better if she cut that stringy part off and cut it to where the bulk/thick section stops
Chasity Lilmama Davila says
It doesn’t matter if two strings are down your back but the rest is shoulder blade length
Chelsei Jonél says
This picture & article are from last year. What’s going on BHC?
Bontle Boroko says
Its her hair so what…………..oh please people let it go maaaan.
Monica Cameron says
Just because someone disagree doesnt make them jealous. Nicki has nice hair but it’s not all of that, I’ve seen thicker hair on female that I envied before. But I wouldnt be envious toward Nicki’s hair cuz like I said, it’s not all that. My hair is past my shoulders and black woman can grow their hair the same way if we take care of it with a hair regime. This is the third time I’ve seen Nicki post pictures of her natural hair showing how long it is, it’s lame and overrated. We got it the first time, why keep trying to prove people the length of your hair??? Did anyone insult you or assume you was bald cuz you kept wearing lace front wig? I dont know, but you are showing self esteem problem when you have to keep proving people s***.
Kim Alisa says
These comments though…SMH. I dont see why some of you have to be so negative every picture on here has to have at least one hateful comment. Then these negative “badmind” (Its a Jamaican term that means pretty much the same thing as hater) people use “It’s my opinion and I’m entitled to it” as some form of justification for their badmind ways. Like if you have nothing good to say just click next. Not because the little box says write a comment means you absolutely have to. KMT! Just sick of it man! Very discouraging coming on here and seeing these comments especially when its something extremely positive being promoted. Act like grown ass women. GOSH!!!!! This isn’t high school.
Lakita Covington says
Oooook….so u mean to tell me this is an article…aww ok.
Reneé Maycock says
3inches of dead hair #trimdat
Jonae D Spencer says
Girl i could careless about people getting their panties in a bunch. I see alot of people said they didn’t like the pink wig. I guess we should be calling y’all haters. To the ones that said “maybe your hair doesn’t grow” child please i have hair to the middle of my back. To much maintenance for me, if i wanted longer hair i wouldn’t cut my hair. And to the shampoo commenting chick. Lol you must be illiterate lol go learn proper English young lady. I ain’t hating off nicki minaj i happen to think she’s a beautiful woman. I don’t see y people are getting so butt hurt. I agree to disagree, so save it for a real hater. I ain’t the one
Allison Thompson says
Does anyone reminder the lead hair article. Maybe that’s the theory for not cutting her hair. 🙂 I think the comments are too funny. What’s the beef about? Someone else’s hair?
AshandKen Gentry says
Are grown women on here really arguing over hair? This is ridiculous. Its just hair. Babies please go get a life. It’s not that serious lol
Charity Faith says
Check her instagram this is not her hair. Y’all believe anything she posted a pic of her natural hair on IG. ..bye Felicia.
Franquesha Monea Williams says
Gina Bruner
Ave'yon Richardson says
So you choose to keep your hair that length or has it stopped growing? Lol that was funny
