This lockdown is an extremely stressful time, there’s no denying that — but the one thing it is good for is giving our hair and skin a break from the wear and tear of getting ready for work everyday and going out at the weekend. When there’s nowhere to go, what better time to let yourself (and your skin, hair and nails) breathe?

Celebrities certainly have been, as proven by Ariana Grande’s selfie on Instagram last night. The singer posted a beautiful picture of herself showing off her stunning natural curls, which we almost never get to see.

And she’s not the only one. From Kylie Jenner to Cardi B, all our favourite A-listers have been giving themselves a beauty break while they're stuck inside at home. Scroll through to see how celebrities have been embracing their natural hair — and we love it.

Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande is rarely seen without her signature sky-high pony, so whenever we get a glimpse of her natural hair, we go crazy for it. Taking to Instagram while social distancing, Ariana posted a selfie showing off her incredible curls, saying 'get a load a dis.'

Katy Perry

Katy Perry, who's been very busy this month announcing her first pregnancy with fiancé Orlando Bloom and defending her friendship with Taylor Swift yet again, posted an Instagram slideshow showing her 'pre-quarantine ➡ufe0f mid-quarantine ud83dudc4dud83cudffb♥ufe0f'. In the first image, she's in Hawaii all glammed up to film American Idol and in the second picture she's in bed, make-up free, showing off her natural hair — roots and all.

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner, who is also practicing social distancing during the Covid-19 pandemic, posted an Instagram story last week giving us a look at what her natural hair actually looks like. The beauty mogul has had all sorts of hair styles and colours over the years — blonde, blue, a blunt bob, etc. — so it's interesting to see her natural hair, which is lighter and shorter than we were expecting, TBH.

Cardi B

Cardi B is known for her crazy looks and her amazing wigs in every size, shape and colour: short and neon, long and sleek, wavy and rainbow — you get the picture. That being said, last week the singer showed us all her natural hair on Instagram stories and it is incredible, to say the least. 'Look at my hair. This is dead-ass my fucking real hair,' Cardi said. 'Wow, I'm so proud of myself.'

P!nk

This is one we definitely do not recommend trying: singer P!nkhad a few drinks and decided to cut her own hair at home. Taking to Instagram stories, she stated 'When I drink, I get really, really, really brilliant ideas and last night I got the idea, "I can cut hair! Why have I been paying people all this time?"' However, the results weren't quite what she was expecting, and left her laughing to fans 'Look what I did. What do you think? Good look? Am I giving you Alyssa Milano vibes? Charlize Theron? I don't know.' Better luck next time.
