I’m not gonna lie — I can’t tell you off the top of my head the extent of Cardi B‘s piercings. I know that she used to have a tongue piercing, a Monroe piercing, an eyebrow piercing, and other piercings that have all seemed to come and go over the years. And I’m sure she’s had her fair share of ear piercings, too, but considering she usually wears her hair long and down, I haven’t always gotten a clear glimpse. But thankfully, she gave us a clear look at her latest ear accessorization by wearing her hair short enough to not obstruct our view.
On Monday, June 24, Cardi posted a quick video to her Instagram Stories looking like a cutie in a Harvard sweatshirt, silver choker, and full face of neutral-glam makeup. But let’s be so for real right now: Her hair was totally unexpected and stole the spotlight in the 10-second clip.
Cardi was serving up late-’90s chic in a playful pixie cut. The deeply side-parted style has plenty of volume up top, sweeping in a fun wave toward the back, where the ends flip up a bit.
And while she gave us a side view of her hairstyle, we also got a good look at her ear. In addition to a traditional lobe piercing that I think is safe to assume was already there, Cardi showed off a conch piercing and a helix piercing. Each one hosted a diamond-covered hoop, and if you look carefully, you’ll see that a chain connected the helix hoop to yet another piercing on the upper lobe.
