4 Reasons We’re Loving Nicki Minaj’s Style Upgrade

If you’re loving Nicki Minaj’s new style after she unceremoniously ditched her famous wigs, loud makeup and colorful wardrobe, you’re not alone. Nicki seems more comfortable in her own skin since the transformation, telling “Good Morning America”: “I did the wigs, I did the colors, I did the heavy makeup and all that stuff. And maybe I’m more confident in myself.”

That confidence shines through with every Instagram picture and red carpet shot of Nicki in her natural hair (styled by Oscar James) and minimalist Alexander McQueen gowns. Sure her over-the-top ensembles entertained, but there’s something more captivating, endearing and ultimately, more beautiful, about Nicki’s new look.
