Mo'Nique went from being the loudmouthed mother on the BET hit 'The Parkers' to an Oscar-winning actress, all while holding down a successful career as a stand-up comedienne. If that's not hard work, we don't know what is.
As her career path changed, so did her look. Let's take a gander at the many interesting hairstyles of this trailblazer.
Hair Transformation: Monique
Mo'Nique hit the red carpet of the 2001 Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards with this sleek and curly 'do. The tight ponytail is a look that she would continue to don variations of throughout the years.
The shine of the awards at the 2002 NAACP Image Awards was nothing compared to Ms. Mo'Nique. The sexy sparkling dress and very high hair definitely made her stand out that night.
Mo'Nique embodied elegance with the classic, yet youthful look in 2003 at the following NAACP Image Awards.
Taking a departure from her normal updo, Mo'Nique let her hair down for the Kings and Queens of Comedy Search in 2003.
The comedienne went in a completely different direction in 2004 at the Los Angeles premiere of 'Soul Plane'. This was quite the welcome change.
The daring actress took her new look to a whole new level with this sexy style. The soft wavy, gorgeous color and hot dress complete one of our favorite Mo'Nique looks yet.
Mo'Nique combines her classic pulled back style with a relaxed style to create this messy look at the 4th Annual BET Awards. Is it just us or does this remind you of your hair after a very windy day?
Mo'Nique looks fantastic with this structured style at the 2006 "Fat Girlz' premiere. It's subtle yet striking enough to turn a few heads for sure.
This updated take on the finger wave makes the feminine star look beautiful. The sharp edges of the old school finger wave are toned down with a soft and gentle flow that make this look perfect for an easy red carpet look.
The Academy Award winner went simple for her big night at the Oscars. A big white flower adorning a simple bun was a great way to highlight her huge smile on her winning night.

Because Monique's face is pretty, the "pull back from the face" look best fit her. Wendy looked like a horse in all of her pics.

Are you serious!? You actually have the ordasity to say black women copy white women hairstyles? What hairstyles are you referring to? The one thing that makes black women so unique is the fact that our hair has no limits. We can do anything to our hair and the styles are endless. We are creative and continue to strive for different ways in managing hair. How often do you walk down the street and see a white woman's hair that actually stands out? Exactly, hardly ever. No one can begin to compete with us. There are alot of black women who have hair down their backs and its natural so before you begin to criticize black women know what you are talking about get a life and stop being so judgemental.

Monique has come a long way and she looks great. I always hear great things about her. I just read a post http://www.theglamrus.com/2011/04/new-series-gets-intimate-with-nba.html#more that made me love this woman.. just because she is said to be so humble. I'm glad she is coming into her own.
