Hair Inspiration: 13 Black Women Who Slay the Hair Game
One of the things I love about being a Black woman is my hair. It’s become my trademark over the years. I remember in high school, my friends would make weekly requests on what style I should do for the following week. Once I graduated from college, I began experimenting more with my hair and took me back to high school. At some point the styles became redundant and blah; doing the same ol, same ol to your hair gets boring…QUICK. With social media I can easily go on an app and scroll through my feed for any kind of hair inspiration I’m looking for.
Black women hair inspiration is everywhere because we are each other’s inspiration. It’s not uncommon for someone for me to be out running errands or walking the mall and getting a compliment on my hair. Even on social media I love seeing the comments from each other. It brings a joyful feeling inside. We really are each others cheerleaders! When you’re bored with your hair and need some inspo, look at these women and their hair slayage.
Tracee Ellis Ross
Tracee is my ultimate hair idol. I get all my curly hairstyle inspiration from her. Also, her character Bow on Blackish is my fave TV character and I’m always marveling at her hairstyles.

Gabrielle Union
She’s like that super cool cousin that’s super athletic and silly…with great hair of course. Whether it’s curly, straight, or in a wig, there’s constant slayage. It makes sense why she’d have her own haircare line named Flawless.

Viola Davis
I love when she wears her natural hair on the red carpet, shattering any kind of beauty standards placed on Black women. Her curls and coils stay poppin and she makes it look so easy.

Kelly Rowland
Kelly’s hair journey has been going on for decades. Who didn’t want to cut their hair short and add a couple red extensions in it like hers? Every style she’s ever had left us wanting more and to see what she’d come up with next.

Issa Rae
Issa keeps slaying with every style she has. Famed natural hairstylist Felicia Leatherwood maintains all of Issa’s twisted updos, curly fro, and textured buns. Yes to all the texture!

Amber Rose
I don’t know anyone else who looks this bomb with a buzz cut like Amber. It stands out amongst the long hair and it’s her trademark. She may switch things up with wigs or color but she’ll always come back to her buzz.

Rihanna
How many threats is Bad Gal Riri? She slays this entire thing called life.

Solange
*plays Don’t Touch My Hair in the background* Solange has no issue switching her style up. She’s a trendsetter and she knows it. Everything looks great on her.

Tia Mowry-Hardrict
Tia looks like she’s always having fun with her hair. I can’t imagine what her hair collection looks like. It’s clear her hair is part of a creative expression.

Zendaya
Another woman having fun with her hair. I’m in awe of how she slays her wigs and her natural hair. Zendaya is perfection on the low.

Angela Bassett
I was ready to go out and find an Italian Yaki wig when I saw her on the Black Panther red carpet. She really does give off Queen Mother vibes for real.

Taraji P. Henson
I think Cookie switches up as much as Taraji. She loves her bobs but she isn’t afraid to shake things up with longer tresses.

Lupita Nyong’o
Lupita. Never. Fails. She draws inspiration from everywhere and her creations are truly artwork.
