I mentioned them by name because it was NOT a small thing that they did for me, the stylist and the black actresses in particular that will soon have another amazing union artisan to craft their glorious natural curls, coils & blessed kinks WITHOUT heat!
It’s a huge thing!

I also want to thank the amazing union hairstylist #CarlaFarmer for standing in the gap & helping to facilitate the conversation that helped us all work everything out.
I worked w/Carla on my first series regular role EVER — #TheBigHouse in 2003. She remains a real one.❤️✊🏾
