But some people are gifted with amazing natural hair.
Especially in the Black community, natural hair can be a statement about no longer chemically altering hair to fit other peopleโs expectations.
While many of us werenโt gifted with the hair of our dreams, these 35 folks have tresses that are truly blessed. And we are seriously jealous.
1. The model mane
And weโre not at all surprised at her follower count because not only is she beautiful and stylish, but she has an incredible head of hair that she wears proudly.
Wouldnโt you if it looked this good?
2. Ravishing Rapunzel
Did you know that you can find inspo for super-long hair by using the hashtag #rapunzels?
This Rapunzel certainly reminds us of a fairy tale.

3. Banginโ blow dry
From maintaining curls to preventing breakage, sheโs the master of natural hair.
4. Grown to the ground
Can you imagine washing and drying this mane? We canโt imagine she does it everyday. Maybe thatโs why her locks are so darn shiny.

5. Hair art
Of course, it helps when youโre a model.
As for the questions โ weโre thinking BOTH.
6. Silver strands
Of course, once those first hairs pop up, this doesnโt happen overnight.
Still, seeing her rock it gives us hope.
7. Flip it!
Timofey Buga isnโt a model โ heโs a teacher and IT student. But we think weโd buy a bottle of shampoo from him if he were in a commercial.
He certainly knows how to work those long locks!

8. Big and bold
But doesnโt this look incredible?
Granted, sheโd be beautiful no matter what was on her head, but this massive mane is next-level.
9. Daddy-daughter โdos
Benny Harlem and his daughter Jaxyn are Instagram famous for their Afropunk vibe.
His Instagram account โ with over half a million followers โ is truly something to behold.
10. Twin tresses
This is TK Wonder and in addition to being a model (along with her twin), sheโs the co-founder of @ArrestedVoicesLifted, which helps share stories of oppression.
The womenโs own story is a devastating one, but they came out the other side with brains and beauty.
11. Soft and springy
Still, weโd love to be able to pull this off. But while some people are gifted with curls, others walk the straight and narrow when it comes to hair.
And the grass is always greener.
12. Growth goals
No matter what your hair texture is like, this kind of length and body is HARD to pull off.
It requires a lot of patience and effort โ but the payoff is powerful!
13. Glorious gray
Gaby Correa has hundreds of hair photos on her Instagram account โ each more dreamy than the next.
She does blow it out sometimes though โ proving that even people with glorious hair still like to switch it up.

14. Taming the tot
Her hair diary has over a quarter of a million followers even though sheโs grown into her tresses in the last few years.
15. Moneyed mane
Well, this is why itโs so unattainable โ itโs basically the hair you would have had as a kid if your parents had let it grow this long.
But we canโt deny that Bozhena Zharina clearly has some good genes going for her as well.
16. On a kid kick
Just look at Mia Aflalo Shunem!
Sure, her hair is styled for volume, but have you ever seen this much hair on anyone of any age?!
Itโs the thickness of those gorgeous tresses that really make us jealous.
17. Rock the mohwak
In fact, she calls this a fro-hawk, and she even posts tutorials on her YouTube channel.
18. The biggest braid
In fact, itโs the star of the show, whether braided or blowing in the wind.
We werenโt even blessed with the ability to braid this well, much less with the hair to pull it off.

19. Coiffed cutie
And we really shouldnโt be jealous of a 4-year old, right?
But isnโt it just a little unfair that she has such amazing hair?
20. Watch it flow
But this founder of an Indigenous design studio and consulting firm knows how to make her tresses do all the work.
Just play the video and youโll see what we mean.
21. Model muse
The goal of her LLC โis to provide quality products, services, and events that exceed excellent customer service to spread Albinism Awareness.โ
22. Ravishing redhead
We just donโt want to have to work for it.
And we know that even if it comes naturally, it still takes a lot of effort to keep great hair in shape.

23. Long and luscious
Of course, many wigs are made with Indian hair because itโs so strong and thick.
But these tresses arenโt for trade.
24. Radiant ringlets
We hope they appreciate their hair as much as we do. Weโve seen people pay good money for that kind of color dimension!
25. Wild grace
But some people truly are born with it.
And young people have the time and energy to style all that gorgeous hair.
26. Manly mane
But the hair has to come in second place, right?
27. Locks of luxury
We donโt know who this model is, but we know she makes a statement every time she walks into a room.
Most of us can only daydream about this kind of hair.
28. Springy splendor
But look at the shine on these strands!
Whether itโs in a man bun or on the run, weโre wild for this wild mane.
29. Nurture the natural
But spending the time when theyโre young to teach them how to take pride in their appearance and even give them decision-making abilities over their hair can be key to their confidence later on.
30. Redhead revival
But with hair like this, you really canโt go wrong.
Natural redheads just have something the rest of us canโt replicate.
31. Little Rapunzel
Her soft, flowing hair shows just how gorgeous long hair is even when you just leave it alone.
32. Dark and dreamy
When she decides to straighten it, itโs well past her knees. And we just love how she adds some edge to the bottom โ always keeping those ends healthy!
33. Little lad, bit locks
But people donโt always have nice things to say about his magnificent mane. His mother has gotten a lot of criticism for letting him grow his hair so long.
At the very least, those folks are just jealous.
34. A natural blond
And to top it off, she doesnโt have any banding from sun damage or other processing.
This is hair most people couldnโt even dream of.
35. Sister style
Ciprianaโs Instagram is full of adventure, style, and gorgeous hair selfies as well as twin snaps featuring, of course, their amazing hair.
