Hair and Now

Pregnancy didn’t slow Kelis down and she is already plotting her next style change.

“I don’t think being a mother will make Kelis any less adventurous at all. She now has a bob with platinum bangs. One side of it is blue and one side of it is green. Next, I believe she’s going to do something kind of feathered and seventies for her new disco album,” shares Dickey, her hairstylist of 20 years.
