Happy birthday to the beautiful, sultry songstress SZA. Today, the entertainer turns 32-years-old and what better way to celebrate her than highlighting all of the times she gave us hair envy with her voluminous locs and killer hairstyles.

From her signature, natural big fluffy curls, to her super sexy pink, red, blue, and orange colored hair and everything in between, SZA has mastered the art of the switch up when it comes to her hair styles and has somehow managed to never give us the same look twice. Whether she’s at an event, flicking it up for Instagram or giving us another “sad girl anthem,” her hair is always making a statement and it’s one of the many reasons we love her!

So, in honor of the contemporary singer’s birthday today, let’s take a look back at five times SZA was our favorite hair chameleon.

1. SZA’s Short, Brown ‘Fro

In May of this year, SZA took the stage at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards in Los Angeles rocking bright yellow colored hair. She wore the look in big curls and rocked it parted over to one side. 

4. SZA’s Curly Up Do

SZA’s appearance at the 2019 Academy Awards is one of our favorite looks from the singer. She wore her hair in a curly, messy up do that featured two long hair pieces that framed the front of her face. The look paired perfectly with her elegant white gown and she looked stunning as she posed for pics on the carpet that night. 

5. SZA’s Straight Silk Press

It’s rare that we see SZA rocking a straight, silk press but when she does, she absolutely kills it! She wore this look at the 2018 Soul Train Awards and looked stunning while her long, dark hair framed the sides of her face. 

For 2024’s iteration of MadameNoire and HelloBeautiful’s annual series Women to Know, we knew we wanted to celebrate the people who help make the joys of film and television possible. To create art is to create magic. This year, we spotlight Hollywood Executive’s changing the face of cinema.
