Hairstyist Terrence Davidson quit on Nicki Minaj after a working relationship of three years today.

Davidson served as the celebrity hairstylist, wig creator and creative director for Minaj. Over a three year period he has created what could accurately be described as a "unique look and brand" for the eclectic Minaj that has allegedly assisted in her rise to pop stardom, if not her notoriety for odd shaped and colored hair.

From his publicist's email:

"After creative differences, he has decided to pursue other opportunities in building his own properties. Terrence’s work will remain to be seen through the month of February on Nicki Minaj during the American Idol tapings."

"Official Statement from Terrence Davidson: 

“I would like to inform the media and supporters that I’ve decided to step away as hair stylist and wig creator for Nicki Minaj. It has been an amazing experience offering me a chance to express my creativity and exhibit my love for the art form of wig design. I have decided to part ways from Nicki Minaj because I would like to explore other opportunities within my own brand and reenergize my creativity through work in fashion editorial, beauty consultations, media personality, ‘how-to’ lectures and hair show development. I am very proud of the body of work built with Nicki Minaj and I appreciate the support over the years from fans who’ve expressed love for my craft. Look forward to seeing me larger than life in 2013”
