The Willow Smith Bowl Cut is Another Bold Hairstyle Statement

Perhaps taking tress inspiration from Rihanna, the Willow Smith bowl cut made an appearance at the Z100 Jingle Ball concert. It’s been a while otherwise since I’ve seen this straight-edge hairstyle, but much of the world had been wondering what crazy hair-whipping style the singing youngster would sport next.

Forming an image for herself with the help of her beautiful brown locks, the Willow Smith bowl cut has come after a series of wild styles, from heart-shaped braids to mohawks. What will her hair do next?
