Issa Rae – Natural Hair Inspo!

Happy New Week Ya'll!

By now, I mean its 2020, you should know or at least have heard of Issa Rae… Natural Hair Bae (You see what I did there hahaha) Her hit show insecure which I & so many others find to be freaking hilarious & so relatable; at least according to social media because we don’t do the traditional TV critics over hurrr! But I’m not here to talk about the show even though it really is a great one & you should totes check it out if you haven’t!

 

Now as the title suggest I want to highlight Issa’s effortless slayage with her constant changing natural hairstyles! She’s quite experimental with her hair, which I so love because her hairstyles are quite dope & not super intricate where it looks like it has to be done by a professional you know? Like her hairstyles look do-able at home, by yourself, or (by your sister if you’re like me) But enough of my blabbing let me show you what I mean:

The brains behind Issa’s hair switch ups aka Hair Stylist is:Felicia Leatherwood

Whether Issa is rocking her natural fro, a hair cut, her elegant up-dos with kinky extensions or just a flat twist, I love each & every style; so much so that I’ve been inspired to do more with my own natural hair! As of right now I tend to just wash my hair, deep condition, play with my afro in the house & then do braids, twists with or without extensions. I mean don’t get me wrong, when I take my hair out I wear my bun for a week or two but then I’d wash it & start the cycle I just mentioned above all over again; so in essence, I’ve actually never worn my own hair out for more than a couple of weeks. But, watching Issa Rae slaying her ever changing natural hairstyles on the red carpet, on her show, during interviews & pretty much every where else has really inspired me to do the same!

Hahahaaha here is a quick interview where Issa talks about her hair:

I swear she reminds me sooo much of one my sisters it’s scary. They’re both hilarious & awkward as hell!

So, what’s your take on sis hairstyles?? Oooh & whatchyall think about Insecure Season 4 thus far?? Let me know below xx
