The past 12 months have been nothing short of spectacular for the multi-talented Jennifer Hudson. From promoting her latest album “I Remember Me” to showing off her new physique for Weight Watchers, each time the soulful songstress stepped out, we couldn’t keep our eyes off of her gorgeous tresses.

J-Hud mostly kept her mane long and bone-straight in 2011, but she wasn’t afraid to shake things up occasionally with bright gold highlights or a funky side ponytail.

From the Hollywood red carpet to sold-out concert arenas, check out Jennifer’s top mane moments of the year.
