MARY J BLIGE 2006-2010

2005-2006 Mary came out with The Breakthrough this year she came with the beautiful light blonde color and more length to add versatility to her styles. Mary also brought back the high fashion, goddess braid (i love this look). I also loved how the light blonde made her skin glow.


2007-2008 This year Mary topped the chart with her album Growing Pains, selling over 629,000 her first week!! She came with honey blonde color and a little lower in her back. She added a very classy side or middle part, wearing loose waves or very sleek and straight. 


2009- Present this is Mary at her best in my opinion. I love the shorter, sexy look!! Wearing a blend of medium and light brown and honey blonde color. Her shorter cuts gives her a sophisticated, classy, young, fresh look. I love how the colors bring out her complexion!! Less is more!!!

MARY J. BLIGE 1996- 2000

1996 - This is the year Mary wins her first grammy for her collaboration with Method Man "Your All I Need". This song came out in 1995 and I rocked it until about 2000!!! 


1997-1998 This year Mary Released "Share My World" still rocking the blonde highlighted tresses mary keeps her hair at shoulder length during this time. This was also when she released her single "Not Gonna Cry" for the "Waiting to Exhale" soundtrack. I know all ladies had this in their car, portable cd player and wherever else they played music. Mary's look in this video(seem below) is so classic. The blonde/med. brown swoop under a wrap with the black sunglasses and the blonde french roll with bangs, and don't forget the black lipstick (I actually wore black lipstick during this time from MAC). Mary also experimented with platinum spirals in her video with Lil Kim "I can love you" How many of you took her picture to your hair stylist. 

1999-2000 Mary released her self titled album "Mary". She was still bringing it with the hair styles.

MARY J. BLIGE 1992-1995

We are gonna take a look at Mary's looks from 1992-1995. This was Mary's introduction as a solo R&B singer on her way to being an R&B Diva!!




1992-1993 From the start of her career Mary has been on top of her hair game. Rocking those light brown spirals, slightly lifted at the top was hott!!  If your remember 2 of her hot singles from this album "Real Love" "What's the 411" Mary worked a fly shoulder length Auburn bob and added the accessories of baseball cap and a head scarf to give it an extra street appeal.


1994-1995 Mary releases My Life, here Mary introduces us to her High lift blonde/honey blonde tresses. On the album cover she is rocking large blonde ponytail twist with a great leather biker cap, hot look. I remember her video for "I'm going down" that blonde was striking. As I watched the video mary is wearing a shag, great short cut on the top with the nape of the neck to her shoulders. 

THE HAIR EVOLUTION OF MARY J. BLIGE

This week I decided to highlight on of my favorite R&B singers and hair icons, Mary J. Blige. I think Mary has worn every hair do possible since her introduction to the music world in 1992 with her album What's the 411, actually we got a glimpse of her in 1990 as a background singer for rapper Redd and singing the hook for Father MC "I'll Do 4 U". When Mary came out with her fly, exaggerated urban wear we were all in love and she has since then matured and evolved in front of our eyes. As I have been writing these posts, and listening to her past cds and watching videos I realize how much I love Mary as a R&B singer, and as a person. She has made it comfortable for someone who may have grown up with insecurities to get over them and to and feel comfortable in their own skin!!! Mary has show us that its okay to evolve as women , one women can be urban, chic, classy all in the same person!!!

KUTZ, KUTZ, KUTZ

Ladies have been starting Summer 2010 with a new look!! I have done at least 3 new transformation cuts in the past week!!! Many of the inspirations have been Halle Berry, Rhianna. I know that this week i'll be getting requests for Janet Jackson's new look!! Janet i'm loving it, she has great bone structure and a short hair cut is very fitting. I'm also loving Mary's hair, she never fails in this department.
