Solange Knowles, the younger sister of Beyonce, has never quite made the same impression on America’s pop landscape as her older and more successful sister, but it isn’t for lack of effort. Or talent either. In fact, an R&B singer herself, Solange has put out two albums one of which, Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams – which came out just last year – is actually really good. A combination of fun and funky Motown with urban and some times disco-y beats as well as a slew of stylish and colorful videos, she’s done quite well for herself. However, she’s still always been in her sister’s shadow.
With that in mind, a recent interview had her saying, “I get asked about Beyonce all the time but I try and make fun of it. Sometimes I say she’s not my sister. Other times I say I’ve stuffed her in my suitcase and sent it to Dubai. I have to have fun with it or I’ll turn into Britney – shave my head and go totally crazy.”
Well, folks. It appears Solange has gone crazy. And not crazy in love either (sorry!). New pictures of the young singer, model and clothing designer show her with a shaved head. Which, is to say, she turned Britney. A stylish Britney though. While Spears just looked kind of weird and alien like with her makeover, Solange is able to pull it off with sass and finesse. In the eyes of this blogger, at least, not a bad look. Disagree? Let me know in the comments. I’m ready to argue!
Oh, and as long as I’m talking about Solange, here’s the great and fun video for her 2008 single, “I Decided”. Check it out!

i believe her hairstyle is fine, lots of black women do and pull it off, if i were her, i wudn't cut it THAT low, but it still looks good on her... her head isn't as big as britney's of course, and i know she's not crazy or insane

she looks HORRIBLE...amber rose is the only person who can pull this off...going bald is not a good look though for anyone....what ever happened to the days when a woman would kill before she went bald?....smh...this was a huge no no...go thing beyonce has enough sense to never do this...that probably why shes the more famous one.

@Dessi_B: maybe she got tired of relaxing her hair and decided to go natural. Lots of black women do it. It's just hair. It'll grow back.

So I heard on the radio this "Solange" chick shaved her head, now I see it's true!! Truely atrocious! Her sister should cut 1/4 of her weave off and share. Luckily she has the means to get herself a really nice wig ;) Amber Rose is really the only chick who absolutely rocks that look!

I think Solange looks sexy with the teenie weenie afro! This is a neat and alluring look on black women. Most women of any persuasion are copycats and boring, this makes her stand apart in a positive, confident way unlike britney. i hear she was actually completely bald-headed 2 weeks before this pic. I bet she was just as sexy then too. This bald look on women (e.g. Amber Rose) is really starting to gain momentum and I LIKES it!

I LOOOOOOVE this NATURAL look on her! Solange looks like a beautiful Black Queen. You HAVE to be a totally secure woman to rock a short doo like this, you have NOTHING to hide under, lol. She glows with confidence and besides, women are TOO darn attatched to their hair, esp. Black women! (BTW, I AM Black, lol) Cut it off, color it, wave it, fro it... It WILL grow back, darlings
