In 2020, celebrities are distancing from more than just people. Stars like  Salma Hayek  and  Ariana Grande  are using self-isolation to step away from certain products and let their natural beauty shine through. This includes hair dye, since accessing a stylist isn’t exactly an option right now. Personally, we love seeing everyone flaunt what their mama gave them! From gray roots to luscious curls, scroll through for all the celebrities going au naturel in quarantine (hair-wise)!

Wig out

Kylie Jenner is taking time away from her wigs and extensions. On a now-gone Instagram Story she wrote: “hair health journey rn.” Kylie’s hair is naturally this length.

Bang(s) Bang(s)

Ariana Grande doesn’t seem to be putting in her signature ponytail extensions while self-isolating. The star embraced her natural curls on social media, writing: “get a load a dis.”

Her mom Joan Grande loved the post, replying: “Beyond stunning... your natural hair/curls is a world of its own... a magnificent beauty you are inside and out/ made up or natural ... I love you...”

Wild & Free

While giving the world a sneak peek of her Rare Beauty products, Selena Gomez posted an ultra-hot wild hair, don’t care flick. Just like us, some days just call for makeup and sultry selfies. “I had an urge to put my makeup on. My papa noticed then proceeded to ask “why do you look like that?” He whistled as he walked away. So there’s that. Wearing all Rare Beauty,” commented the star. The singer and actress’ makeup line is set to release this summer exclusively at Sephora.

Silver lining

One Tree Hill star Hilarie Burton has a beautiful reason for letting her true hue shine through. “The ‘silver lining’ is literally growing out of my skull,” she prefaced her lengthy caption. “For all of our frontline and essential workers who are too busy to fuss with things like hair color, I grow mine out in solidarity with you. When I see it, I’m reminded of all you’re doing to keep us safe. I’m reminded that you deserve to be taken care of. I’m reminded that any spare time I have shouldn’t be spent on vanity, but rather on helping our heroes. I can make 5 masks in the time it would take me to dye my hair. It’s a small, silly symbol. Gray hair. Who cares, right? But I hope the nurse or the vet or the store clerk who is feeling tired and overwhelmed knows that it’s a visible thing I can show that says ‘I’m with you’.”
