Be it long or short, curly or straight, natural or processed, hair is more than a protective cover on your head — oftentimes it can define how you feel about yourself as a person. For many African American women, hair anxiety, described as "a shared fear among Black women about how their hair looks," is very real. This phenomenon can affect a woman's self-esteem, impact daily life activities and ultimately cause damage to the hair itself. We examine the impact of hair anxiety and explore ways to lessen the stress of caring for our hair. Our guests include Michelle Williams, CEO of Versus Salon, and actress, spokesperson and musician Ashley Tru Ward.
