1. Sanaa Lathan
Sanaa Lathan is the 2018 crowned naturalist, for the proud way she has been effortlessly sporting her hair and empowering women. In 2017, she made a bold move for her role in the movie, NappilyEverAfter. Like we weren’t already in love with Monica Wright, she amplifies our love for her by giving us a character that we can relate to. Or, perhaps she has changed our view on how ‘nappy’ hair is perceived. If you haven’t seen the movie, I encourage you to watch it! See this afro textured wig. I really just want to celebrate her boldness and power to go against the grain changing the conditioned beauty standards. Therefore, if you’re a woman just looking for a push to even just take one step outside of your comfort zone, join Sanaa Lathan’s journey and watch her latest film. In short, from her bald buzz to her two?she has been the biggest inspiration.
2. Issa Rae
Issssssa! Issa Rae is a natural hair?BOSS.?First, she carries titles such as director, producer, actress, and writer. Second, Issa does such a great job switching it up with all of her different natural hairstyles. She could rock anything and make it look good. I always look forward to seeing her elegantly grace the red carpets. I used to think beautiful gowns and red carpet looks belonged with long hair and shoulder length blunt cuts. In contrast, Issa has showcased some of the most beautiful ball gowns looks with every natural hairstyle you could imagine while looking so fashionable and chic. Issa Rae Issa look, a whole mood, a classic naturalist.
