Just when I was about ready to rant about the fact that TV show producers tend to be more inclined to have their hosts sport long, flowing straightened wigs as opposed to their natural hair, there comes Tamera showcasing her natural curls on yesterday's episode of The Real. I always wondered if it was her personal choice not to rock her beautiful curls on the show or the preference of the production powers that be. It was so refreshing to see her luscious curls that were showcased during the show's "Don't Touch My Hair" segment.
Tamera touched a bit on the fact that her hair had been through stage where it suffered much damage due to overexposure to heat. She decided to do the Big Chop in order to get rid of the damaged hair and start a fresh journey to enjoying healthy hair. She admitted that she was a bit nervous about wearing her own hair out on the show and that is understandable since everyone is used to seeing her wearing weaves. She shared that her hubby loves her natural hair and would much rather see her rock it all day, everyday. I am so glad that she made the bold statement that women can totally embrace their kinks and curls and that TV is no longer reserved for those fitting a certain image. Kudos to you Tamera, naturals everywhere are proud that you represented, and did so confidently.
