4. Solange
You don’t hear much about Solange copying others but, when she shaved her hair off in 2009, she had to address haters who said she was doing nothing but following others…
“I was NOT inspired by anyone but myself. I have done this twice in my life. I was 16 and I was 18. Did not care about your opinion then. don’t care now,” Solange wrote on Twitter. “I just wanted to be free from the bondage that black women sometimes put on themselves with hair.”
