Leave it to Megan Thee Stallion to drop some mid-week beauty — and life — inspo. On Thursday, February 10, the rapper wished fans a “good ass day” on Instagram by dropping a photo dump of her long black hair styled with tinsel.

The hair tinsel that the three-time Grammy winner wore is a mix of purple and teal metallic shimmer. The bold color combination adds a nice pop of color against her pin-straight black strands. She also paired her shimmering hairstyle with a fresh set of nails. The graphic cherry nail art drawn on her long coffin nails has a cool neon light effect that makes her tips look like they’re glowing.

Meg is always switching up her look and serving fabulous hairstyles and manicures, especially ones inspired by the ’90s and early ’00s. She’s rocked space buns, hair clips, and more bright-colored wigs than anyone can count. It’s hard to pick a favorite hair look when comparing it to those, but these multi-colored metallic sparkles definitely rank high on the list.

Now that hair tinsel has the official Hot Girl stamp of approved, it’s likely that you’ll see more of Meg’s hotties sporting the trend on TikTok. And from ponytail extensions to hand-applied strands, there are plenty of ways to DIY at home.

If this hair tinsel has caught your eye in more ways than one, there are plenty of ways to incorporate it into your hair. You can follow Meg’s lead and opt for simply weaving them in and letting your strands hang. On the other hand, you can also get super intricate with tinsel and work it into fishtail braids, waterfall braids, and braided buns. Either way, it’s always a good thing to have more glitter in your life.

Megan Thee Stallion Cures Sadness With Jewelry at BBMAs 2022

Megan Thee Stallion is serving more than just body-ody-ody-ody.

The "Sweetest Pie" rapper has officially kissed her black hair goodbye, as she unveiled a fiery red new 'do while attending the Forbes 30 Under 30 Summit on Oct. 4. Based on her entire look, Megan wanted all eyes to be on her epic beauty transformation.

While the artist is known for her wildly audacious fashion, she took the less is more approach wearing an understated black long-sleeve dress paired with matching strappy sandal heels.

Taking to Instagram later that evening, the 27-year-old snapped two sexy selfies that not only captured behind-the-scenes moments of her glam session but close-ups of her vibrant red hair color. If anything, it resembled Ariel's look in Disney's 1989 animated film, The Little Mermaid.

In both photos, Megan showcased her half-up-half-down hairstyle with voluminous curls, which complemented her glamorous makeup. She opted for a bronzy smoky eye and lined her lips in brown and layered clear gloss on top.
