Viola Davis is a phenomenal actress and one of my favorites! So Nappturals, I was super excited to see her on the October 2013 cover of Essence Magazine representing her natural beauty! She is what I consider to be a classic, timeless beauty; the kind that never fades. In her sit-down with Essence for the October edition, Viola talks about how her husband pushed her to take the wigs off, how she teaches her young daughter self-acceptance and the path is took her to get there herself. Be sure to pick up the October edition of Essence, you don't want to miss this cover story!
"There's
not one woman in America who does not care about her hair. But we give it way
too much value. We deprive ourselves of things, we use it to destroy each
other, we'll look at a child and judge a mother and her sense of motherhood by
the way the child's hair looks. I am not going to traumatize my child about her
hair. I want her to love her hair."
