Welcome Ciara to Team Natural. The Seattle homemaker and part-time entertainer showed off her natural hair in a video uploaded to her Instagram account on Sunday. The 33-year-old mom-of-2 has worn bundles of hair weave and lacefront wigs since her career launched with her hit single “Goodies” in 2004.
Lately, the singer has grown wary of the effects of hair weave and extensions products on her natural hair. Specifically, the loss of her edges and constant breaking and shedding of her natural hair.
Recently, Ciara ditched her long extensions for her own natural tresses that grow from her scalp.
On Sunday, she shared a video on Instagram showing how she can now tie her long hair up into a ponytail.
“The first time I got a relaxer when I was young, it took out my hair. I was devastated. I never thought my hair would grow back. So proud,” she captioned the video.
In the video, Ciara teased fans that she would share all of her long hair “secrets” at a later date.
The clip has quickly racked up over 1.8 million views, with fans praising the star’s decision to embrace her own hair instead of experimenting with wigs or hairpieces.
“Long hair don’t care,” one user wrote in the comments, while a second stated, “Because we’re not meant to get relaxers Queen our hair texture is meant to stay in its natural hair state #teamnatural.”
“Her hair is long because she got rid of all the negative stuff,” one user insisted.
Another follower suggested that Ciara’s new look is due to her happy home life, since marrying Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson in 2016.
Last week, Ciara posted a natural raw selfie that showed her makeup free skin and natural hair.
“No makeup. No extensions. Vulnerable. My Beauty Marks and all. The real me.. and I love it. Finally embracing myself fully! It feels good,” she captioned the image. CiCi challenged her 21.9 million followers to go makeup free and remove their hair extensions.
Ciara is still recording music. The “1, 2 Step” singer has sold over 7 million albums in her career.
Oh Lord…and I like her…but come on now.
First “No Makeup Challenge” Now we have the “Natural/Real Hair Challenge” Smh…
Omg peabo bryson had a mild heart attack over the weekend l cant take this no more.????
Everything a challenge ain’t it? ????
I want to see scalp! She’s too far away. Flaunting hair like it took charm or wit to grow it! Good for her but kinda seems like she’s gloating?????… And I have hair I’m not hating ?
I am proud of my permed ultra short hair as if it aint long l shouldnt be proud of my haïr n it is unhealthy.
Yea I posted this hours ago
IDK cece Them edges looked real full in that far away video but real thin in that pic. js
Everything but her talent ??
I’m proud of my curly kinks that I sometimes braid it in set it off braids and throw a wig on the mutha QUICK!
Right! She can afford facials and hair treatments galore! Your man is PAID stop being so dang thirsty! Bet you Future called her bald headed or something when they were together! This is petty.
Been werking for a change l didnt see it. I hope mr romance b ok. His song can u stop the rain is my favorite.
Hit it on the head!
I know everybody’s supposed to be in love with Ciara, but I’m not. She seems fake & knows her niche is in whoever her man is. She doesn’t go hard as an artist. She won’t stop posting/low key bragging since she got w/Russell.
Long but thin ion don’t like it like that??
Log out. Ouch
Yes I love son Peabo.. they say he’s in stable condition
Omg I was thinking that! That’s why I said she’s too far away! You’re bang on
Lol @ charm or wit ?
???? did I lie? Hell No ?????
My fav is Beauty and the Beast
“The first time I got a relaxer when I was young, it took out my hair. I was devastated. I never thought my hair would grow back. So proud,” she captioned the video.”
Girl they left it in too long, Dassit! LMAO

She fills them in. Her “natural” pic shows the spaces. On red carpets when she’s not in wigs, her edges are shaded.
I blame Alicia Keys formerly pizza faced ass
“Good luck booking that stage you speak of”
Robyn Fenty to Ciara Harris circa 2011
She has 21.9 million followers?
Interesting
All the ladies who looking for her secret to landing themselves a big light skinned curly haired mane. But hey. To each.
???
LOL LOL you wrong for this LOL LOL not pizza face
I wish she would have just let it down and took a spin.. LOL
This here statement says it all. Go somewhere and sit down, she had become corny like her husband!
LOL…………………..
YOU! YOU!!!!!! ? ?? FACTS!
Lol my hair fell out too… but it wasn’t my first relaxer lol… I overprocessed mine (too much color+relaxing too soon after color)
Good for her but everybody got hair, she just come off so fake to me. Like she be forcing her happieness. Its cool no shade be happy but I cant take it it just seems so fake
I’m dead! ????
Lol…let’s not forget RICH
he’s 5′ 10″. Not even how we like em big sis ?
????? Ciara career hasn’t been the same since
I feel you I cant stand her fakeness it just seemed so staged
You’d think all bw were bald as many wigs/waves I see on the daily.
I’m perplexed as to why there is so much hoopla over this. They are entertainers so costume, makeup etc is part of the act BUT DAYUM they are not the first to rock natural hair length nor minimal if not no makeup at all… There are millions of black women who can run circles around them WITHOUT EFFORT yet they’re is no comrade about it!
RIGT…Because I had one and it ain’t no big deal. Now if he came with 100 million dollars then he would’ve been worth keeping.
Ciara’s cute
I never liked this woman. I don’t know why
?????
I too have hair and edges (eyeroll)
I used to before Future fkd her up lol
?
Because I said in my Alexander O’Neal voice “she’s a FAKE”!
All of them should have floor length hair if that’s what they desire, with all of their money, personal stylists, nannies etc. Now if she was a single mom with two little ones, no man, a full time job, a mortgage, and two baby daddys, I might be more impressed.
OMG Somebody just said referring to John Singleton “why would you remove your dead phone from a charger”??? I just holler???????
Is that it??????
Damn sure AINT
And…

Thats what I was trying to say in the earlier post before someone was quick to be all angry…back in the 90’s all I saw was breakage from perms but these past 15+ years or so I see more majestic manes from sistas (and some brothas) frequently and even more than a permed head…I think that some of US are just brainwashed into thinking long hair validates them…just like IG models think a big manufactured butt validates their existence…
Well let me tell you…
Russell paid for her music masters she had in a storage unit gathering dust. So l guess he paid for all of her fake followers as well.
I said she was thirsty in another thread and a troll came for my neck…
I stand by my statement ?
she needs an IV.
My cousin was like HOW IN THE HELL is A.Keys gonna be like: yall all go without makeup too ladies!
when HER ASS was just unable to do so the PREVIOUS year. She had a whole Proactiv commerical. Like heffa you had HELP to get where you are. Cuz was smooth pissed off at the gall of it all.
She should post a challenge of her singing abilities
Yeah some people might just have extreeeeeemely fragile hair but most often it’s due to some sort of human error. Put it on top of another chemical, left it in too long, bought Super when it should have had Regular or Mild…etc.
“Make sure you get me mild, last time you got me SUPAAHH guurl.” -Miss Peaches, Low Down Dirty Shame
She’s so thirsty she makes me thirsty…
* sips my lil drank to stay hydrated
That’s fine but how many are actually going to support her career
Their living viciously through her. They did the same stupid shyt with the same type of dude…all his shyt was on front street and she thought her cooter was better BUT she did the same as the others before her. She didn’t pray he did and well…
“In the video, Ciara teased fans that she would share all of her long hair “secrets” at a later date.”
Let me tell you a secret and you don’t have to wait on it…Do what works for you. I know people that “protective style” (weaves, wigs, braids, twists etc) and others that don’t and they grow and retain the same amount of length. One product may work wonders on you and have my hair looking a hotmess even though we have the same texture (so we think). It is NOT as complicated as people make it. You don’t have to buy 100 different products to get the “look”. Water goes a long way, but so does patience. Accept the fact that long hair may not be your genetic makeup so appreciate your short healthy hair and be happy. Lastly, don’t compare your hair to someone else, you should embrace your own journey and rock it.
She’s only famous now because of whom she sleeps with and have kids by.
* crickets
????? omg
She’s like them “Human Mattress” hoes the Kardashian-Jenners. She becomes whomever she’s with.
Vicariously yes..that’s why she is misguided about her true appeal it’s not her music it’s her personal life…
No please..
So, “Beauty Marks”, is the title of her upcoming album, and the name of her music label? Lol smh and these are some of the joint ventures between her and Russell? ????? How do you invest in your own music and label, but roll out the concept (“Beauty Marks” aka natural beauty) less than a month before your album drops? There should have been an actual campaign centered around her label and the concept at least 6 months ago. See, this is why…????? Lmao … Russ, invest well lol…
??? Alexander O’Neal?????.
Great advice.
I like her BUT her fortunate “landing” is becoming OVERKILL!!
I’m so confused… a celebrity posts a video to THEIR 21 Million subscribers/fans/etc. of her doing everyday life things and a blog chose to pick it up and exploit it for their subscribers, and said Blog subscribers willing click on the video (TO BE NOSEY) and the Celebrity is Labled the Thirsty one??? LOL what a world we live in. *Face Palm*
???
Lol
How does one click on a video of someone they do not like? I’m not being funny, I am really curious. I’m not fond of the Kardashians (No hate) just not interested in anything they do or say, so I make it a conscience decision NOT to even click and give their post any views because I am simply uninterested. You should try it one day on a Ciara post, it may be therapeutic.
I concur
Ur not alone
i had relaxers damn near my whole life and my hair is as long and healthy as sh*t…and i don’t have cancer. meanwhile the newer relaxers are much better. sh*t, them old-time and cheap ones was tough as hell to get through but my hair never suffered. blame the stylist for f*cking up your head.
I just read an article that said that they’re just now linking cancers and fibroids with relaxers. We already gamble with our health with inactivity and our dietary habits, eliminating relaxers should be the easiest to wean ourselves off.
chile, i did that color+relaxer thing too fast cause i was traveling to see my lil boo at the time. my stylist was like “i’on know about this…” but i was like DO IT! chile, i get in his truck and he had black seats. i sit back and ride and then, when i sit up, why i saw my hair on them seats?? i ain’t got a permanent color since!
Ciara needs to focus on getting those 21 million subscribers to pay $1.29 for her singles. The focus should be on making money lol not hair tutorials lmao smdh
Nope. I didn’t click the link.
But yes to all the rest. Who gone check me boo?
??
Dont compare your relationship with someone else. Yall might get up one day n discover russell is bat azz crazy. It funny how she has all the time in the world 2 b on the internet since she has gotten married. When she was single never heard anything from her. Now she is all over the place.
It is always something. They blame air for asthma
Maybe Russell finally makes Ciara feel secure about her looks, unlike those music industry dudes who probably made her feel basic. Hopefully she’s found that self love all women need to have for themselves.
I am of the belief that black women have hair like Ciara’s — or can use products that make their hair like Ciara’s and don’t need to wear all these weaves and wigs. If you’re in entertainment, that’s one area you need wigs and weaves. But the average black woman, with the right products can have soft manageable hair. I just think women are lazy. I see little girls now wearing their hair natural in pony tails and puffs.
Agreed. I had relaxers up until I was 28 and moved to NC. Then I had a hair stylist who didn’t know what she was doing and completely DESTROYED my edges…SMH
ok well i do have fibroids!
She’s not doing anything different than Ariana, Madonna, Beyonce and so many others do….did I mention the Kardashians? They’re using social media to connect and sell.
She’s really just mediocre talent.
i see they say there is a racial disparity with the fibroids because it’s always black women. so when they sampled black women, almost all of them had relaxers. so then i look up the pthalates they are talking about and they are found in everything, including white women and men.
?
For the life of me I cannot understand why people get hot and bothered about what other people do with their hair /head.
Lmao… Don’t breathe then I guess..
That aint nothing new. Soooo tired of folks acting as if natural hair is something. Have u seen a picture of african woman out n in church. A lot of them got weaves n perms n aa women over here try to romanticize natural hair.
Lmfao!!! I’m so sorry girl! Mine was embarrassing too? I was in a salon full of ppl Lawd ?? i legit almost cried *in* the salon lmao but I thankfully my mom and best friend were making jokes about the situation ? and everyone kept reminding me that: ITS JUST HAIR & it will grow back lol. But for like an hour ? I had a “moment” ?… but that was like 10 years ago when I was like 22 … and I had the same mindset as Cici … that long hair was an exceptional novelty amongst black women lol… but you grow older and wiser… I’m thankful for my hair falling out back then, because I wouldnt have been confident enough to started my natural hair journey 10 years ago. And I couldn’t have appreciated my hair at various lengths. ??
My husband was asking me why all women seem to think Russell is the ideal mate the other day. Since I don’t follow either of them I had no answer
Genetics is what is the determining factor
“Nope. I didn’t click the link”. (yet your posting on the link) *confused faced* round of applause for delusion…
Who gon’ check me boo? LMAO, Definitely not me, I don’t I’m no keyboard or F2F Thugg. I’m a lover, not a fighter. LOL
I agree, but too bad she’s already wealthy enough to pay all our rent and mortgage and student loan bills so she’ll be alright. In the words of Cardi B “The people that talk the most ish, are the ones that don’t have their ish together.” IJS.
Just jokes hun..I mean don’t we all come here to gossip and laugh?
These celebrities and their constant postings about their real hair. smh.
who lost their edges after having a baby? now THAT is some scary sh*t.
I live in a bldg with African women and they were the cheapest nastiest looking wigs….I want to snatch it off their heads. If you’re going to wear a wig, wear a high-end one.
Girl stawp ?… Russell is rich… and to quote Chris Rock “but the white man who signs his check is wealthy..” talbout paying everybody’s bills ?… gurl…
“I ain’t talking ’bout rich, I’m talking ’bout wealth. Wealth is passed down from generation to generation. You can’t get rid of wealth. Rich is some shit you can lose with a crazy summer and a drug habit.”
Russell better invest well cause Cici gonna have him investing millions into her career, while she sitting up providing hair tutorials like an influencer on YouTube ??????
Ciara ‘s posts mirrors Khloé Kardashian’s posts in that she posts several times a day on trivial things we could care less about. Sometimes you can posts tooooooo much and people will start to wonder what’s really going on?
I’m natural and I have 3C/4A hair at bra strap length. I’ve never dyed my hair and I’ve never (and will never) use heat on my hair. My mom isn’t natural, but has long hair as well. Just do what makes you happy. I stopped getting perms years ago, because my scalp couldn’t take it due to a pre existing condition. It’s just hair. We all have a choice. However, I will say that men down here in TX love women with natural hair. ??
Have y’all seen the curly wig that Beyoncé is wearing that her stylist is claiming…it is all her hair. It’s just getting worse and worse. These celebrities and their blatant lies are at all time high.
A black woman with hair ??
I sure as hell do.
Wealthy? Where are you getting your information form? Rich? Yes. Wealthy? Lol…….not even.
They’re not worth $1.29. She needs to lower they price. $1.29 is far too expensive for her songs.
Me!!! So that’s a thing? I even changed hairdressers because I assumed they messed my hair up
it is. happened to my sister as well.
Yes!
She can’t let it down because she doesn’t have hair on the sides or in the front of her head. When you let it down…it is very noticeable then.. Look closely to the front and where her hair starts. No sides whatsoever. I went through the same phase when I finally took the sew ins out. The hair is stressed extremely on the sides, font of the head and in the back bottom. She ONLY has hair in the crown area of her head.
They sure do, honey! They are tired of the middle parts & laced fronts.
I’m so sick of natural hair products. Whether it’s a high end brand or one from The Dollar Tree, I get the same results — first time using it, hair looks fantastic, next time not so much. I don’t understand this obsession with having long hair that is then kept protected under a wig or weave. Is it being saved for a special occasion? Something for your man to pull on? For your grandkids to brag about? What?
You had to call African women. I hope you are not black.
Why is she holding it like that? I’m smelling some trickery here. I don’t trust that Ciara. She does too much for the gram.
Really, all? Their money must be magical if you think it’s enough to pay everything you have listed.

My son is nearly 5 months and I noticed some thinning at my temples so I’m going to invest in some Jamaican castor oil and hope for the best …
????
I just think women are lazy.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Natural hair is TIME CONSUMING! Bruh…don’t get me started…sometimes I don’t even want to wash my hair cuz I don’t want to have even think about what I’m going to do it ; D
I have the problem too, sometimes…works wonders the first time…then…not so much…this is why I have twentyleven million products.
Why do we care… She can pull of the majority of hairstyles she wears.. Black women have a million and one hairstyles no one cares how long you hair is if its cute
I clicked on it. I didn’t write some long drawn out essay..
Yea because she cut it off a few years ago and hair don’t grow that darn fast. But the wig is beautifully made. It ain’t nothin but some mongolian kinky curly combed out
Thank you its called choice!
You are so right. It is to my understanding that african women do not like their hair so they do wear lots of wigs. aint nothing wrong with that it is called choice!
He has done a lot of good for her unlike the sperm dropper baby daddy she was hanging out with …smh
Okay I want to say she cute without make-up but…. Chile I thought… nevermind
at its best…she should focus on being a wife motherand socialite you know one of those “ladies who lunch”
Man when I was pregnant I had thick & luscious hair. I was all natural. My prenatal pills were the best. After my son was born it was still healthy but as he got older and more stress came along its completely damaged. I actually cut it all off three weeks ago. Now I’m rocking finger waves lol.
Yeah got thèse folks buying those high azz so called natural products with an african symbol in front made in a lab in cleveland georgia. It is a sucker born every minute.???
I remember when jayne kennedy n kenny leon was the it couple bcas they were cute n rich. They broke up n u thought the world came 2 an end. It is just a relationship people. None of us are divorce proof.
Facts
Right ! Could we at least get a bra-strap length view? That lil clip is shady AF ?
She didn’t run her fingers from scalp . Idk could have track in the middle I seen women totally do magic
I make things happen. Now when I said the Natural looks needs to include showing her natural hair, it appeared!
That short cut blonde bomb was too a wig.
Sadly they are the ideal idols of many women. A lot of sisters don’t know that natural hair length (relaxed too) is achievable for black women. Some need to see it. There are neighborhoods of women who’s edges have jumped the curb. they need to see how other women tress.
Sooooo annoying and thirsty. Talk about doing the most. I guess she wants a cookie ????? https://media1.giphy.com/media/qmfpjpAT2fJRK/giphy.gif
Ditto! She’s fake. Her entire new image aka persona. Not fooled.
No lies told??
Part time entertainer ????
Her hair look so thin
IG…?????its really thin tho ?she clearly still perms her hair. & it SHOULD have some length after years of being braided under those dry wigs she wears
Lmao I’ve asked myself those same questions. I started off with “natural products” and in the beginning it was cool, but, I don’t know if ingredients changed or what, but, suddenly the products started drying out my hair and the cost of the products nearly doubled. I decided I was too broke to drop $50 on the latest natural hair product a week lol. I just went back to hair products that produced results, rather than what the ingredients said. However… studies have been done and it’s been observed that a lot of products that black women use are lethal and dangerous to our respiratory health, and gynecologic. Now, we don’t all need to go natural lol (although we should lol), but we definitely need to be more cognizant of products and chemicals that we put in our hair. These studies are identifying where and why we’re most vulnerable to preventable diseases and illnesses. We can’t turn a blind eye to our health – especially when it’s something as silly as haircare.
IN MY building. They do not wear the best wigs. They look raggedy. I give Lupita credit, she works with HER hair in the movies and I do wish my African sisters wouldn’t throw a wign on.
No she had a pixie cut before that
yes, it’s hormonal and real.
Truth
Exactly, why hid it if you want to be free and natural. Protective styles are not for me, I moisturize regularly and good to go. I understand protecting your ends from time to time but not 100% of the time am I hiding my hair.
This is a build up to hawk some potion to the masses. My hair looks better.
Because it’s thin and stringy and would most likely not look cute hanging down. Looks very heat-damaged. I’ll be impressed when she learns to appreciate her natural coils/curls and show that off cuz this mess aint it!!
I had a couple of little bald spots in the back of my hair and a small part of my edges were thin but luckily my hair is so thick that it wasn’t visible or noticeable. That ish sucks!! I think it was also due to stress.
Make sure to buy the one with Lavender oil in it or mix it yourself cuz jbco can really make u itch badly lol!
YES! People don’t understand how tedious it can be to do extremely thick, kinky hair. Especially since this texture requires more effort to keep it moist and you also have to be more gentle because it’s more prone to breakage. It’s both a blessing and a curse to have thick, healthy hair!
Thnx! Will def give that a try.
well good for her….I gave up perms 3 years ago…and with the help of my bomb ass babyliss flat iron…I too can have smooth silky hair…..or a soft fro….#teamnatural
#TeamCici
Hate that, my hair was beautiful when I was preggers.
She did have a pixie cut and it twas a pixie cut wig.
I went natural a few years ago but honestly my hair grew longer when it was relaxed ? Idk wtf happened
