Cardi B’s Hair Revelation: Months Without Washing?
In a candid and humorous moment, Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B shared a surprising detail with her audience via a live Instagram broadcast: she hasn’t washed her hair in months. Yes, you read that correctly.
The Revelation
During a video shared on X, the mother of three, who is expecting her fourth child with partner Stefon Diggs this winter, mentioned that she hadn’t washed her hair in approximately two to three months. She then humorously added that she planned to massage her scalp with oils, wash her hair, and braid it in the coming days. “There might be all kinds of eggs in here, cricket eggs, mosquito eggs, everything,” she said, pointing to her hair covered by a hair cover.
Cardi B’s Hair Journey
Cardi B has been open about her hair journey for years. In 2021, she shared old photos on Instagram to respond to comments criticizing her hair’s appearance due to her mixed heritage (her mother is from Trinidad and her father from the Dominican Republic). “I’ve been sharing photos of my hair journey for years, and being mixed doesn’t mean your hair is always long and curly; that wasn’t my case,” she said. She added that she had struggled to manage her hair since childhood and had discovered different methods that suited her hair over the years, leading to its current length. She encouraged women with curly hair to know that “there is no ‘bad hair.’ No such thing as bad hair, and ‘good hair’ doesn’t mean a specific type. All hair types are good.”
Homemade Hair Care
Cardi B has also shared her personal recipes for natural hair care products at home. In 2022, she revealed that she washes her hair with boiled onion water, a tradition she says helped her start her healthy hair growth journey. She also disclosed the natural mask she uses on her daughter, Kulture, who is 7 years old.
Hair Styles and Legal Battles
Cardi’s hairstyles and wig choices have often been a topic of discussion, especially during her civil trial related to an incident where a security guard claimed the singer assaulted him in 2018. After the trial concluded on September 2, she joked about the numerous wigs she wore in court, saying, “I’m telling you, my forehead is inflamed from all these wigs.”
Constant Changes
Known for her unique and bold style, Cardi B loves to constantly change her hairstyles, from a short black bob with bangs to curly blonde hair.
