Erykah Badu, Ledisi and Solange cover ESSENCE magazine
ESSENCE magazine’s May issue is highlighting three natural haired beauties; Erkyah Badu, Ledisi and Solange. Inside the publication, each star rocks their own cover moment while also sharing their personal definition of style and beauty.
“Although I’m known for my long, colorful locs, I still don’t take my hair too seriously,” Ledisi tells the mag about her tresses. “I experiment a lot, dyeing it and constantly switching styles to grab attention. My hair is one of my best accessories and changing it helps express who I am.”
“We all have the option of how we want to express ourselves through our life, hair, style or whatever we decide,” adds Solange. “We shouldn’t be pigeonholed into any one category.”
“I view my hair and clothes as functional art,” says Erykah Badu discussing her coiffure. “I’m my own stylist and I love it, but I am not trying to make a statement.”
ESSENCE’s May issue hits newsstands April 4.
