Hair today, gone tomorrow: Amy Winehouse ditches the beehive as she hops over the fence to see the neighbours
30th March 2009
Despite her erratic behaviour over recent years, the one constant thing in Amy Winehouse's life has been her signature style.
The troubled singer is rarely seen without her beloved beehive wig, heavy black eyeliner and satin ballet shoes.
But spotted over the weekend outside her north London home, the 25-year-old appeared to be having an off day as she displayed her naturally curly hair.

Natural look: Amy Winehouse showed off her natural curls outside her London home over the weekend as she stepped out in a pair of checked pedal pushers and rolled-up green cardigan
Dressed in a rolled-up green cardigan and checked black pedal pushers, Amy left her new home to visit her next-door neighbours, who she has been spending increasing amounts of time with since moving in last month.
Instead of walking through her front gate and along the street to their driveway, the Rehab singer jumped over the spiked iron fence in a bid to save time.
Amy hasn't been seen without her matted wig since she returned from St Lucia last month.
While Amy was content to let her natural curls flow during her three-month holiday in the Caribbean, she started wearing the wig again as soon as she touched down at London's Gatwick airport as she prepared to resume her pop star lifestyle.

But it appears Amy was having a normal day at home and was giving her natural hair a rest from the heavy wig.
Later on that day, she played host to her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield and brought her to visit the neighbours again.
Amy has promised to make the 12-year-old aspiring singer a star and has been touting her as the next big thing at industry parties.
The youngster duetted with Amy at the Prince's Trust End of Summer Ball last year.
Amy has said: 'Dionne is the one - I love her to bits. Dionne really is special; she’s better than I was at her age. Dionne is young but she has more potential than any girl I’ve ever seen.

'I know she’s got an advantage by knowing me but I’d put her in a room against anyone and she’d do the business.'
Meanwhile, Amy is said to have finally accepted that her 22-month marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil is over after he filed for divorce in January.
Friends of the singer said she has written 'if you love him, let him go' on her Facebook page.
Her statement came days after she wrote on her page 'I don't think I'll ever see him again'.
Her father Mitch Winehouse, 57, expressed concern earlier this month over Amy's hopes for a reconciliation.
He said: 'Amy wants to resolve the situation. She’s guilty of loving him, stupid girl! But I want her to get divorced.
'I want Blakeand his family out of our lives. I just hope Amy can stay away from him.'
