Prince, the musician responsible for power ballads like "Purple Rain," and "When Doves Cry," and party anthems like "Let's Go Crazy," and "Kiss," passed away at the age of 57 in his recording studio and home in Minnesota on April 21, 2016.

Known for the funk that oozed out of his soul and both swagger and style that he radiated, we remember Prince with his ever-evolving fashion and, of course, hair throughout the past four decades. 

Thanks to all of our Instagram fans for your heart-warming comments about this icon's passing:
