Quantcast

Every year when it gets hot out, I get a little scissor-happy when it comes to my hair and, in a recent Instagram post, Yvonne Orji just gave us a whole moment that makes me want to take the top all the way off.

Although 2020 has been a drag, you don't have to wait until January to step into new beginnings and Yvonne proved that your tresses are a perfect place to start. The comedian, who has rocked a short look in the past, switched out her normal set of braids and symmetrical bob for a short look and we are here for all of it.

Giving us all the big chop energy, the star joins celebrities like Tiffany Haddish and Tamera Mowry, who have also chosen to embrace their natural hair during quarantine. In a previous interview with Into The Gloss, Yvonne revealed that because her hairstyle depends on her outfit for that day, her switch-up game is serious. She explained:

"For my hair, I do a lot of pieces. I like to switch it up. I like protective styles, so this is my summertime bob. But then I also have 22 inches. I like a middle part, just because I think it frames my face really well. And then sometimes if I'm traveling I'll do a braid with cornrows. It's about versatility—being able to have a natural style, and then have a straight style. Anything that goes with the outfit. Literally I pick the outfit, and then I go, what hair goes with this today?"

We All Mess Up Sometimes. But Can You Trust A Friend's Apology?

Although what I mostly deal with when it comes to the clients that I have is romantic relationships, there are definitely times when other topics come up. For instance, recently, someone was talking to me about some drama that they were going through with a friend of theirs. Emotionally, they felt like they were in a bit of a bind because while, on one hand, they had been friends with this individual for over 15 years at this point, on the other, there were certain things that they had done, more than once, that were starting to take its toll.

When I asked my client if they had clearly articulated their feelings, concerns, and boundaries to that individual, they admitted that they hadn’t.
