From endless curls to single strands, these entertainers have blended urban flavors with trendy styles to prove that weaves can get very stale in Hollywood. No pun intended. Let’s bring on the natural-haired sisters, shall we

Jill Scott


Singer Jill Scott is one of the few neo soul artists to gain mainstream success out of the Philadelphia area and keeps going strong with several albums and films including Tyler Perry’s “Why Did I Get Married.” Not only is she a risk-taker in her profession, but the new mom loves to show off her curves and afro-braids in the celeb circuit. Hope her next album “Light of the Sun,” receives the same praise as her natural tresses.

Erykah Badu

When we think of neo-soul icons, there is no other person who fills that role as much as Erykah Badu. Her witty and tough-as-nails persona has the tendency to break the rules in music and fashion – and yes, we are pointing to that “Window Seat” video. And can we forget those afros and head wraps that make her a front-runner on our au naturelle list? It’s hard to ignore a woman who is unafraid of crossing boundaries.
Lauryn Hill


Lauryn Hill is back! The R&B, Grammy-award winner is coming out with another album – and ready to shoulder fans with an her ingenious music collection. Since making a comeback, she has given us a reason to love her African-inspired tastes which have connected us with our roots as well.
Tanika Ray


Entertainment correspondent Tanika Ray evokes a spirit on screen that is just as magnetic and vibrant as her curly up-dos which is why she stands out on our list. The Spelman College graduate is a prime example that success breeds true beauty and personality, and curly-fros are an absolute must-have in Hollywood!

Melanie Fiona

Canadian-Guyanese recording artist Melanie Fiona joins the list as the breakout star of the year. She has collaborated with big-named artists such as John Legend, Alicia Keys, and the Roots, but her most important aspect is her hair which is to die for! In this case, no weaves can compare to Melanie’s deep dark roots – body, depth and length rules. Sorry!


Fatima Robinson


Fatima Robinson knows the logistics of the music business because she is responsible for every celebrity dance move imaginable. Just ask Gwen Stefani, Prince and Fergie. You name it, she has danced on it! The talented choreographer attracts publicity for her fashionable headpieces, twists, and dreads which have driven people to do away with perms forever! She heats up the red carpet too with her new boyfriend, Common, these days. *wink*

Tracee Ellis Ross


Ah yes! The daughter of a Motown legend nabs one of the best shoulder-length hairstyles we’ve seen in years! A true testament that thick hair runs in the family, Tracee Ellis Ross embodies purity in life because she proves that natural hair has staying power in Hollywood. And she is unforgettable as the woman who played on the sitcom, “Girlfriends.”

Thats a weave:look:.......but shes still natural:lachen:;)

So is Jill Scott and Erykah Badu's hair. Diana Ross too. I saw they made that thick hair runs in the family comment with Traycee's picture. Have we ever seen Diana's real hair? Does she have hair? She's known for wearing wigs and weaves. I don't think she and Traycee have the same hair type. Traycee is half white right?

I don't know why this photo of T'Keyah's where her hair looks like a twist-out didn't show up, but here's an attachment of it:

The hell? Now it's showing up. But I'll leave this here, in case it disappears again.

I love T'Keyah's hair! What kind of style do you all think if in the last pic? A bantu knot out maybe? She's about to be my new hair idol!

I haven't seen her in bantu-knots so I have always assumed it was a twist-out. It looks like the hairstyle I attached in post #18 but only it's older or more fluffed out in the one you are asking about. The style in post #18 looks like a twist-out from the second pic.
