We were minding our business on a Tuesday afternoon and in came the bombshell via an Instagram post that superstar singer Beyoncé may be launching a hair care line soon.
The handwritten note from Bey herself (which is something usual for her) was accompanied by a photo of herself curling her hair in the mirror, and daughter Blue Ivy getting her hair cornrowed.
The note read: “How many of ya’ll knew my first job was sweeping hair in my mama’s salon?” the 41-year-old star wrote, “Destiny’s Child got our start by performing for clients while they were getting their hair done. I was exposed to so many entrepreneurial women in her salon.”
“I saw first hand how the ways we nurture and celebrate hair can directly impact our souls,” the Grammy-winning artist continued, adding that she’s “always dreamed” of carrying on her mom’s “legacy” as a hairdresser.
“I watched her heal and be of service to so many women. Having learned so much on my hair journey, I’ve always dreamed of carrying on her legacy. I can’t wait for you to experience what I’ve been creating,” she wrote. She then signed the heartfelt message with a heart and her initial, “B.”
Of course social media was in a frenzy when the news dropped, see some fan reactions below:
As a black woman, I certainly cannot wait to see what Beyoncé creates as her natural hair looks gloriously healthy and long. I remember one particular social media post of Beyoncé’s mother Tina parting her hair into sections to prove there were no plug-ins or extensions! (See above).
Sign me up, I will have 10 of those and a press pack too thanks. God knows how long we’ll have to wait though as Queen Bey is currently on her packed out Renaissance Tour. But of course we’ll have our eye out so make sure you are subscribed for updates!
