Ariana Grande’s Hair Evolution: From Her Iconic Ponytail to Rocking Her Natural Curls

You like her hair? Gee, thanks, just… read about it.

Ariana Grande continues to make her mark in the music, fashion and beauty industry. And like many icons with signature styles—we’re talking Selena Quintanilla‘s red lips, Beyoncé‘s iconic honey blonde hair, Cardi B‘s electrifying nail designs—Grande’s hair is right up there.

It’s safe to say the 26-year-old star is known for her high ponytail. Back in 2014, she explained the reasoning for her signature ‘do.

“Since people give me such a hard time about my hair I thought I’d take the time to explain the whole situation to everybody,” Grande wrote in a Facebook post at the time. “I had to bleach my hair and dye it red every other week for the first 4 years of playing Cat… [ in Sam & Cat] as one would assume, that completely destroyed my hair.”

“I wear it in a pony tail because my actual hair is so broken that it looks absolutely ratchet and absurd when I let it down,” she continued.

“So as annoying as it is for y’all to have to look at the same hair style all the time, it’s all that works for now (AND I’m comfortable for the first time in years)….,” she added.

However, before Ariana began donning her now-iconic ponytail, she was known for her bright red hair color and voluminous curls. In fact, the songstress recently shared a selfie in which she showed off her natural hair.

And you can imagine, her fans went wild over her bouncy, lively curls.
