About 3 and a half years ago,
Lynn Whitfield stopped relaxing her hair for the second time.
“I didn’t even know what my real hair felt like,” says actress Lynn Whitfield in this episode of “My Mane Moment.”
The first time the veteran Hollywood actress went natural, she was a student at Howard University. Her tale of growing up with a relaxer before later transitioning to wearing her natural hair for the first time after being influenced by her
HBCU college experiences and surroundings is a familiar one for many of us who have gone through a similar journey with our hair.
At 65 years old – after decades of relaxing her hair – Whitfield is yet again embracing her natural texture which she describes as “the waves of the ocean.”
Check out her full story above in our latest episode of My Mane Moment.
