A Look Back at Every Time Ariana Grande Has Said "Thank U, Next" to Her Signature Ponytail

Updated on 8/18/2019 at 1:51 PM

Ariana Grande recently posted a throwback photo of herself as a child wearing her signature high ponytail. "If anything .... she's consistent," she joked in the caption.

Though we're used to seeing Grande with the snatched hairstyle, the "Boyfriend" singer has actually broken up with it multiple times to wear completely different — though equally as eye-catching — hair looks throughout her career. She has walked red carpets with architectural top knots, revealed to Instagram her naturally curly hair, and inspired fans with dreamy, Pinterest-worthy braids. She has even given them a glimpse of what her hair looks like without hair extensions, which hits right below the shoulders.
