Grande is known for her high straight ponytail, so the photo of her natural hair was a welcome surprise. "Your natural hair/curls is a world of its own... a magnificent beauty you are inside and out/ made up or natural ... I love you..." Yesterday, the singer posted a follow up video on Instagram showing off her natural curls,but this time with a two-tone twist. Grande's video showed her sporting a half-up half-down style with both brunette and blonde wavy layers. So when the 'No Tears Left To Cry' singer posted a rare glimpse of her natural dark brown curly hair on Instagram, we did a double take during our scroll. Spending so much time at home — and away from our favorite stylists and colorists — has inspired a wide array of hair decisions among everyday folks and celebrities alike.

Through a tumultuous series of cultural and personal events in the years that followed, she took up the mantle of becoming not just a role model, but an avatar of resilience for our chaotic times. Whether she’s setting pop music trends or navigating the ups and downs of fame, she seems to move through life with the same grace with which she sings. Most vocal divas want you to feel their work, the sheer difficulty of singing like they do — but Ariana has always sounded effortless. She uses all of her four-octave vocal range, but she’s just as known for her precision and restraint as her belted high notes.

Grande’s fans agreed with her mom and immediately flooded Instagram and Twitter to share how obsessed they are with seeing her natural hair texture. From the sound of it, Grande may be treating and preparing her curls for more public consumption. Liu couldn't confirm that, but he did share some great advice on how anyone who usually styles their hair straight can give their natural curls a healthy comeback. Ariana Grande may be one of the biggest pop stars out there today, but she didn't immediately come into stardom.

With no obvious celebrity narrative, Positions was simply an excellent pure R&B album, with Ariana singing gentle intricate ballads in her most comfortable environment. Positions reset our expectations of what an Ariana Grande album should be — definitively closing the chapter on the turbulent second act of her career. Yours Truly, released in 2013, was one of the most distinctive debut albums of the 2010s, channeling ’50s doo-wop and ’90s R&B into a romantic sound all Ariana’s own. Her 2014 sophomore LP My Everything crossed her over into modern top 40 pop, as high-profile collaborations with Iggy Azalea, Jessie J, Nicki Minaj and The Weeknd made Grande a household name. And 2016’s Dangerous Woman saw Ariana come into her own as a pop A-lister, tackling a diverse range of musical styles — trap, reggae, deep house, musical theater — with a newfound level of vocal confidence.

Because her bubbly character required bright red hair, Grande bleached and dyed her hair often, which resulted in damage. When Grande landed a short-lived spin-off sitcom called "Sam and Cat" with Jennette McCurdy's character from "iCarly," the singer opted to wear a wig instead. The "Thank U, Next" singer has shared a few glimpses of her real hair in the past. Though the color of her hair has changed through the years, Grande’s hairstyles have not. The songstress often sports a high ponytail, which she explained in 2014 is due to damaged ends from constantly color treating her locks while on Victorious and Sam & Cat.

Although we can’t help but notice that the star still loves her go-to high ponytail, but at least she isn’t afraid to switch up her lengths every now and again, too. Last year the singer teamed her long hair with a front fringe and she even debuted a Daenerys Targaryen-like hair transformation only a few months ago. The star previously explained that she also experienced damage when she bleached and colored it bright red for her Nickelodeon show Sam & Cat. She also showed off her hair without extensions in February 2019 when she explained to fans that she’d been trying to grow it out after damaging it from bleaching it platinum blonde. We have no doubt Liu has already given this great advice to Grande if she's been thinking of taking more than a momentary break from her stick-straight signature style. Whether or not we get more of those gorgeous natural curls soon, we'll just have to wait and see.

When all is said and done, there’s no better time than now to look back on her formidable catalogue. Ariana spent the next three years largely out of the spotlight, preparing for and filming her dream role as Glinda in the upcoming Wicked film adaptations. With no intentions of recording a new album until after production ended, her presence in pop was sorely missed.

The "Dreamin" singer responded, "Thank u for always putting the curls and their health first !!! ily." In the video Ariana's hair is a short bob length, just like it was when she was a child. In the new photo, Ariana appears to have shoulder length hair and it's just as beautiful. Given how much Ariana struggled with her real hair previously, it's great to see her be so comfortable in it now.

In October 2020, Ariana Grande spoke about her hair again in an interview on "Zach Sang Podcast". This time, she spoke about her natural hair and how it's become something that's reflective of a more private side of herself. "My real hair, which is the humongous, curly, curly poof, is kind of, I don't know," she said. "So few people get to see it and it's cute, and it reminds me of me as a kid ... it's who I am privately." Famously, a young Grande would become a household name by way of Nickelodeon’s Victorious — which, of course, is closely tied with her character’s red velvet hair. However, throughout filming, she dreamed of one day becoming a pop star, and has shared how difficult it was to dye her hair back to brunette on most weekends in an effort to feel like her authentic self when creating music.

The singer has given fans the occasional glimpse at her natural curls, like in a throwback photo in February and on the August cover of Vogue, but it's still rare enough to get admirers excited to see her real ringlets. Ariana Grande has changed up her hair countless times over the years, but one style we rarely see the star sporting is her natural, untouched bouncy curls. But after the “Thank U, Next” singer shared an adorable throwback of young Ari with her beautiful curly hair, fans started asking when they would see her rock the look again. As much of the U.S. remains in quarantine, many people are taking a break from the curling, straightening, and general styling of their hair because who's going to see it? All of Instagram, if you're Ariana Grande, because she'd like them to. The singer ditched her signature high ponytail and extensions and posted a selfie where she showed off her naturally curly hair to her millions of followers on the platform.

Ariana even wrote a song about her hair on her album, "Positions". "It brings me so much joy, honestly," she admitted to Byrdie Magazine. "Every time I put my hair up, it's like a surprise. Like, I forget how much I love it, and then I tie it back and I'm like, 'I love this look! Ooh, girl!' Every time I tie it up is like the first time. It's like true love." “U are a gift @bettyinacherry thank u,” the star captioned the video where she appeared to thank her freelance nail artist friend for sending over the pack of press-on nails.

But every so often, she decides to (literally) let her hair down. This weekend, she reminded fans that, no, she didn't exit the womb with a high ponytail. When you think of Ariana Grande’s beauty look there’s a good chance her super long hair and signature ponytail are the first things that come to mind. The latest look at Grande's natural hair texture comes courtesy of Josh Liu, a Los Angeles-based hairstylist who has joined the pop icon on tour. In the upside-down selfie posted to Liu's grid, we see Grande with a cutesy filter but, more importantly, with a cascade of brown curls falling around her face and shoulders onto a pillow.

In my mind, I'll always paint the picture of Grande first and foremost as the character in Victorious with that signature red hair. Ever since then, (I'm talking nearly a decade ago), Grande has gone back to her brunette roots while staying true to the high ponytail, experimenting with anime-inspired pigtails, and even trying blown-out curtain bangs. While each style continues to look absolutely beautiful on her, the latest low-key content and visuals Grande has shared on her social platforms stand as my favorite.
