Solange Post

Solange Knowles threatened to shave her head in protest to constantly being asked about her more famous older sister. And well, she went through with it. In a Twitter post she said that she’s "not bald" but is just going through the "I wanna cut all my hair off phase." Source
Look, sometimes you just gotta free yourself. Shit, I did. Of course, when I first cut off all my processed locks I cried for about a half hour and wore hats and scarfs for two months. But after 60 days of reflection I said, eff it, who gives a damn. Plus, if I recall She’s done this before. I recall seeing pics of her at her baby shower rockin a baldy.
In Other Solo News…
Solange has lashed out via the net yet again to discuss her recent haircut amongst other things.
Here’s her statement:
listen. if. i. wanted. to. make. a. statement. i. would. have. twitpic’d. photo shoot. ect. i. was. simply. taking. my. son. to. school.stupid. paps. took. pic. ive. had. my. hair. cut. like. this. for. two. weeks. i. was.

It’s interesting to see that former Destiny’s Child member LaTavia Roberson Tweeted (most likely about Solo) the following:
i dont get the whole shave my head thing. its not edgy its attention seeking. believe me i know. some people look like halle and others look straight up tranny. its a big commitment twitterbugs. personally i keep it cut and clean. dont bring no razors near my crown
LaTavia later denyed talking about Solange and insisted that she tweeted before even seeing pics of Solange. Source
LaTavia, honey, don’t mess with Solange when it comes to internet rage. She’ll murder you with the posts. And why do you care anyway. Shoot.
