    Force-close the contacts app: double-tap the home button, locate Contacts, swipe up on the image above the app icon to close it, tap the home button again.  Then reset your phone: hold the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release and wait for it to restart.  Check your contacts again.

     

    If that doesn't work, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts off, choose Delete from My iPhone (they will still be in iCloud) then turn Contacts back on.
