Cardi B's Boldest Hair Colors, From Bombshell Blonde to Fiery Red

Hair color chameleon! Cardi B isn’t one to shy away from a wild tress transformation. And with a killer glam squad and vast collection of funky, fun and fabulous wigs at the ready, the 29-year-old singer is consistently stepping out in amazing hues.

Because whether she’s attending an awards show or simply striking a pose in an Instagram post, the Grammy winner has made it clear that she’s all for experimentation. And she’s logged some pretty amazing looks over the years. 

From the insanely long red wig she wore as a nurse circa Halloween 2019 to her seafoam green bob at the 2018 Billboard R&B and Hip-Hop Power Players event, she’s tested out more colors than we can count. 

And she’s only kicked her love for unique locks into overdrive over the past couple years. She’s taken neon yellow strands for test run, given gradients a go and even tried out heart-shaped space buns. Most recently, she rocked a blonde pixie for the Mugler event during Paris Fashion Week.

As much as she loves to play it up and go full glam, she also doesn’t shy away from showing off her natural hair, either. In March 2020, the “I Like It” singer took to her Instagram Stories to show off her voluminous curls. “Look at my hair. This is dead-ass my f--cking real hair," she says in a video, wearing a cozy robe with the shower running in the background. She even mentioned that she was “so proud of myself” for giving her followers a look at her texture. 

Keeping her strands healthy and strong is in part thanks to a DIY hair mask that she says “is really good for curl patterns” like hers and her daughter Kulture’s.

What’s in her secret recipe? She spilled the tea in June 2020, crediting ingredients like avocados, argon oil, mayonnaise, honey, castor oil, raw eggs and a banana for her luscious locks. 

“My hair gets like this when you blow dry it,” she said in the Instagram Story, showing off her natural texture. “Then two days later it looks puff puff like this, even when you braid it.”

While Cardi shows off her curly hair on occasion, most of her outings are all about sleek and straight styles or intricate updos. And in honor of her birthday, Us Weekly’s Stylish is rounding up her best hair colors of all time, ahead.
