We live for a dramatic hair transformation. Whether it’s inches or a shocking color, we love ladies who aren’t afraid to switch it their ‘do. And Nicki Minaj, known for her love of inches and color, constantly keeps us on our toes with her ever-changing hairstyles. 

Her latest, floor length side-swept baby pink cornrows might just be one of our favorite looks so far. Last night the rapper took to Instagram to debut her new hairstyle.

The ‘do, which Nicki refers to as her Barbie look, was created by celebrity hairstylist Kim Kimble.Pink is a hair color we absolutely love! From Rihanna to Jhenn Aiko some of our favorite ladies have given this color a try. While we haven’t seen anyone rock the color quite like this before, Nicki makes it all her own and has us itching to give floor length braids a try.
