Ice Spice is the princess of rap, and all of her hair moments are unmatched. Even though everyone loves her signature curly ginger hair, she’s been booked and busy serving so many new hair looks recently. And because her hairstyles always have us in a chokehold, we’re constantly on the edge of our seats in anticipation of what she’ll pull off next. Unsurprisingly she just gained hair icon status, because her new bob at the BET Awards is truly next level.
Even though Ice Spice broke into the scene with her iconic short curly hair, she’s been no stranger to long Rapunzel-esque locks recently. Last month, she pulled up to the Alexander Wang show with the most luxurious long hair, and she’s been consistently giving us long hair inspo to fawn over since then. We have no doubt that she can pull off any hair look, but her ginger hair color seems to be the one thing she’ll always stick with. And with this new bob, she’s serving ginger Marilyn Monroe.

Ice Spice’s monochrome look at the BET Awards is a true orange creamsicle fantasy. We already knew orange was her color, and this outfit is only further cementing that. But beyond her stunning dress, her wavy old Hollywood bob is giving us all the glamour the red carpets have been missing. If it’s one thing about Miss Ice Spice, you’ll never catch her lacking in the hair department. We honestly thought her hair couldn’t get any better after her long locks at Alexander McQueen, but this is exactly the plot twist we needed to see how versatile she truly is.
Even though we’re getting major Marilyn Monroe vibes from this iconic bob, it’s exaggerated volume and super defined curls are giving plastic lego hair at the same time. The blocky bob makes her look like a platinum-record-selling diva that just stepped out of The Lego Movie. And don’t get it twisted, that’s nowhere near a bad thing. Regardless of what her hair reminds you of, everyone can acknowledge that she’s really making it work. With so many celebs walking the red carpet with flat and lifeless hair, it’s honestly refreshing to see a star like Ice Spice setting the bar high. If this bob has taught us anything about Ice Spice’s hair game, it’s that she’s not afraid to take a risk (and look fabulous doing so).
