A Mom Recreated Cardi B’s Iconic Heart-Shaped Pigtails on Her 7-Year-Old Daughter — See the Photos

This past summer, Cardi B debuted pink heart-shaped pigtails in an epic post that we won’t soon forget. Now, of course, fans everywhere are recreating the iconic look and sharing their own amazing versions on Instagram — including a 7-year-old girl who goes by Samaya Strawberry.

Ok, technically, Samaya’s recreation was done by her talented mother, Saj — aka goghettem_saj — who runs her daughter’s account. Nonetheless, Saj nailed the rapper’s look perfectly, down to all the little details, like the braids woven around each heart-shaped pigtail. The only small difference is that Samaya’s wig is a slightly darker shade of pink than the one Cardi B wore back in August.

Naturally, Samaya is receiving a wellspring of love on her recreation post, which features a side-by-side look of each look. Folks are leaving comments like, “She look so freaking cute??,” “Yes sis killed it!!!” and “Of course you did ????.” Additionally, countless people are tagging Cardi B, as well as the “WAP” singer’s hairstylist, Tokyo Stylez.

As if the hair wasn’t enough, Samaya is also wearing similar zipper-like dangly earrings in the photo — that, and she’s even posing exactly like Cardi B did in her video, with her pointer finger resting above her brow just so.

It should go without saying, but we’re so impressed by this mother-daughter recreation of Cardi B’s incredible heart-shaped hairstyle. Here’s hoping even more people recreate this look come Halloween.
