Nicki Minaj wants to perm her natural hair, fans beg her not to

From bubblegum pink to fluorescent yellow, curly to straight, Nicki Minaj is the queen of wigs. Yet when she does show her natural hair, fans are obsessed.

On November 22, the rapper posted a photo of her natural hair on Instagram, asking fans whether she should perm her natural hair – but the internet had other ideas. “If I perm my hair it's gon b touchin my booty,” she wrote alongside her mirror selfie, which has amassed nearly two million likes. “Should I perm it y’all? Real hair to match my real big ol ghetto booty. Ugh love this for me.”

Commenting on the post, one user wrote, “Nah! Sis !! We are NATURAL HAIR GIRLS”, while another said, “I love seeing your natural hair”. Someone else commented: “Your natural hair is bomb sis!! Keep it that way.”

Whether or not she’ll end up perming is, of course, entirely up to her, but until then, at least she knows where her fans stand.

Elsewhere, Minaj recently revealed that she’s working on a documentary series with HBO that promises to give a “raw, unfiltered look” at her “personal and professional journey”.
