"My Hair" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by American singer Ariana Grande. The two wrote the song with Victoria Monét, Tayla Parx, Anthony M. Jones, Charles Anderson and its producers Tommy Brown, Scott Storch, Anthony M. Jones and Charles Scootie. It was released by Republic Records on October 30, 2020, as the third track on Grande's sixth studio album Positions.
On "My Hair", Grande lets her hair down, literally, as she gets intimate with a lover. Permitting a partner to touch her hair puts her in an honest and vulnerable position, but here, she’s comfortable and willing enough to do it. One of Ariana’s most notable features is her signature high ponytail, and here, Grande is embracing her natural curls and opening up an insecure part of herself to someone she loves.
Background[edit]
The song was officially confirmed as the album's eighth track on October 24, 2020.[1]
In her interview with Zach Sang, Grande states how her hair is a part of her identity and journey through chapters of her life, as well as how her current boyfriend Dalton appreciates her natural curly hair.
Critical Reception[edit]
According to Time magazine, Maura Johnston, describes the track as "bringing R&B ideals from the past right into the present. “my hair” is a 2020 reinvention of old-school soul that flips its first verse from a double entendre into an invitation for someone to run their fingers through her tresses. Grande’s whistle range acts as a counterpoint to her understated flirtation, floating above the song’s flinty guitar lines as she revels in revealing a new part of herself to a new person."[2]
Live performances[edit]
A live performance of the song was released on July 14, 2021. It is a Vevo Original Live.[3]
