The “Fancy” singer has also had more than her fair share of mane changes.
The Oklahoma native turned 21 that year and was signed to her first record deal in Nashville.
Her naturally red tresses took center stage in one of her first promo photos from the time.
Her locks fell below shoulder level, with the required layers of the era snipped in around her face.
But as McEntire once told herFacebookfans, “Big hair & sparkles never go out of style!”
And we can only imagine how many cans of hairspray were called into duty that night.
“And it did.”
But it wasn’t as easy as just picking up the scissors on a whim.
“It took almost a year for me to talk them into letting me cut my hair.
They told me my hair was my image.”
The star wound up completely smitten with her decision.
“It was freedom,” McEntire declared about going short.
“I loved it.”
“I didn’t like my hair that flat,” she noted.
“This gal likes VOLUME.”
At the top of the head, tresses were puffed up into a crown of volume.
The List did!)
For admirers of her hair, she once shared the secret to achieving a Reba-like mane.
