In Cannes last month, Solange Knowles was rocking a groovy Afro, but now the singer has gone to new lengths with her hairstyle.
Taking part in a photo shoot during her vacation in Croatia, Solange showed off her super long braids as she posed in beachwear on Thursday.
Pulled to one side, the 26-year old pulled her thigh-length locks over to one side, as though she was the goddess Venus emerging from the choppy waters.

If to emphasise the mythical comparison, the mother-of-one wore a white lace tunic with golden cuffs on each arm and matching chunky hoops dangling from underneath.
At one point Solange raised her arms up into the air and closed her eyes, as though revelling in the beauty of the Croatian scene around her, but sadly that image was corrupted by another beach dweller floating pretty close by to watch the events.
Knowles then changed into another outfit, opting for a patterned blue kaftan that billowed in th wind as the shoot moved onto the stony beach of Braču.

Audience: Another beach dweller was hanging around near the photo shoot in Croatia
Vacation: The singer has been in Croatia for four days after visiting five countries
Solange flew to Croatia for a four-day holiday after performing six shows over five days, which included seven flights to five different countries.
The 26-year-old singer last performance had heads turning with a brand new sound since signing for Big Apple based Terrible Records and kick-starting a musical partnership with close pal Dev Hynes.
And as soon as she arrived in the European region, she couldn't wait to start Vining some videos of her time there.

The mother of one will be releasing third album Sole Responsibility later this year after spending the better part of 12-months in the recording studio with talented producer Hynes.
While the new music has earned her a new following, it might be some time before she outshines Beyonce, who is currently preparing for a return to music with her imminent fifth studio album.
The yet to be titled release will feature contributions from the likes of Timbaland, The-Dream, Pharrell Williams and Justin Timberlake.
Small team: Only a few people were on set for the shoot in Bruca
