10 Reasons Why Kelly Rowland Is My Hair Crush

From short to long, the singer and mommy-to-be knows how to rock a weave. Here are five reasons I’m crushin’ on her hair timeline.

By Charli Penn · September 18, 2014October 27, 2020
01
Kelly Can Work Some Hair

Every time I spot singer Kelly Rowland on the red carpet or out and about, I find myself giving her two snaps and a wink for her hair moment in the making. That diva knows how to make fabulous hair look like casual, everyday norm. I think her mane is one of the most underrated ones around, so I’m taking a moment to break down my obsession with her every-‘do.

Wave Hello!

The first time I saw Rowland’s gorgeous head of curls it made me want to slap my curl wand. Fierce to the fifth power!

She Takes It To New Heights

The former The X Factor judge never disappointed on set or while promoting the show, even if it meant taking her hair to new lengths and heights.

Straight Talk

Oh, and Rowland has zero problem setting the record “straight” on the red carpet. Yaaasss!

Color Queen

Want to brighten the mood? No problem. Even Rowland’s foray into the blonde zone was a hit. Seriously, her mane can do no wrong.

Regal Reign

When it comes to regal moments on the red carpet, Rowland’s locs reign supreme.

She Does Lovely Right

I adored Rowland’s banged top knot, which was a youthful take on a hairstyle staple. Gorgeous!

She’s Versatile

Even Kelly’s short styles look super natural and sexy. She can wear her hair long or short and still own the red carpet.

She Bangs!

When the gorgeous Rowland stopped by the ESSENCE offices for a special visit in 2013, she brought along her signature bangs. (A hit every time!)

Glamour Girl Alert

Rowland takes her locs from causal to glam in an instant, but it’s always true to her style,

She Sure Can Accessorize A Bump (Wink!)

Rowland, her growing baby bump and her fab locs are glowing everywhere they go these days. How sweet is that?
