Solange Knowles at the 2009 MTV VMAs

We already know that Solange Knowles is one brave woman. It takes a lot of guts to take your hair from well beyond shoulder length to practically shaved off. I think the ultracropped style is really working for her, though. Seeing that Solange is not a shy one when it comes to experimenting with her beauty options, leave it to the singer to make tonight's red carpet appearance a dramatic one. Heavily done-up eye makeup, matte bubble-gum-pink lips, and distinctive eyebrows all play a part in Solange's bold style. Are you mad about matte?
