Sonequa Martin-Green's Straight Hairstyle on Talking Dead

Sonequa Martin-Green on "Talking Dead" on AMC

Sunday, 'Walking Dead' star Sonequa-Martin Green appeared on the talk show Talking Dead on AMC. Green sat alongside co-star, Lauren Cohan who plays "Maggie" on 'Walking Dead'. Many of you sent me questions about the actress and her hairstyle in which I wanted to address.

On the show, Green wore her hair long and flowing with a part on the side. The hair that framed her face was feathery and flipped outward.One question some of you asked was whether Green's hair this week was real or not. It looked as though she may have added hair. Although, I thought the style looked really cute on her, it would have been nice to see her rock a textured style. Green previously appeared on a taped interview segment on the show with her hair in a flat twist and bun style.

One of the questions some of you asked was why do I think she did not wear her natural hair. My answer is that it's all about personal choice. I also think that when actors and actresses appear on the "Talking Dead" or any other show, it is important that people differentiate them from the characters they portray. For example, Sonequa Martin-Green plays the character "Sasha" on the show and Sasha's hair is natural. As a result, when Green walks onstage, many people identify her as being her screen character instead of herself. Also, her stylist may have suggested that she wear her hair a certain way. She may have also been practicing protective styling (smile). Those are my guesses.

In addition, it was good to hear Green's insight on Sasha's character. One of the things she revealed was that Sasha was a firefighter before the zombie apocalypse, and that was one of the reasons why she had a tough exterior. I found myself laughing at her rejection of Bob's attraction to her when he kissed her. But then, I felt bad for both of them. Bob's reaction of walking away like, "Oh well" was also funny to me. It will be interesting to see more of the development of Sonequa Martin-Green's character "Sasha" as well as the other characters on 'Walking Dead.' It will also be interesting to see her hair choices too.

What did you think of Sonequa Martin-Green and her hairstyle this week on "Talking Dead?"

Aborigines and Melanesians: Naturally Blonde Hair and Dark Skin

Melanesia: Solomon Island girls (photo courtesy of the -cropped-Flickr- Australian Civil-Military Centre http://www.acmc.gov.au/ ) Naturally blonde hair is often associated with white or Caucasian people. However, there are groups of dark skin people who have naturally blonde hair also. Some of these groups include the Aboriginal Australians (Aborigines) and the Melanesians. I love this fact because it goes against the idea that one group or culture must look a certain way or stay in a certain category.  The Aborigines have dark skin. Some of them also have blonde hair which tends to be straight, but can be curly. Scientists first believed they were descendants of Eurasians. In 2011, scientists found evidence against the theory from a sample of natural hair. The sample of hair, which was said to be more than 100 years old, helped scientists determine that Aborigines were descendants of Africans. The New York Times confirmed this finding: "The Abo...

1BlessedNatural: Sheryl Underwood Wears Natural Hair and Apologizes on The Talk (photo cred: CBS/The Talk) Yesterday, comedian and talk show host, Sheryl Underwood wore her natural hair onstage of the talk show, The Talk. She received a round of applause, and Sharon Osbourne commented that her Teenie Weenie Afro (TWA) was gorgeous. Underwood explained to her fellow co-hosts and audience that she'd done something wrong 2 years ago when she spoke against the actions of Heidi Klum for keeping her sons' Afro hair in a bag as a keepsake. She said the hair was "nasty." Underwood received backlash for her words, especially from the Black community. They were viewed as examples of self-hatred among other things. On Monday's episode of The Talk Sheryl Underwood apologized a second time for her 2013 statement by saying this: I made some statements that were not only wrong, they hurt our community. When I say, "our community," I mean Black ...

Priscilla Shirer Shares Her Natural Hair Story and Tips on IG Live!

Actress and minister of Going Beyond Ministries Priscilla Shirer shared her natural hair story and secrets on IG Live today. After receiving numerous questions about her long thick natural hair, she decided it was time to do a video. Shirer said, "I've decided that sometimes, to a woman, hair = ministry." Shirer started getting a perm at about 13 years old. During previous years, her mother would use the hot comb to straighten her hair. When Shirer was 24 years old, she noticed a circular patch of hair that had broken off on the side of her head. After she visited a doctor and they plucked a few strands from different parts of her hair, the doctor concluded that Shirer's hair was growing in healthy. However, it was something that she was doing to her hair that was making it break off. As a result, her doctor told her to stop relaxing her hair for 6 months. While driving home, Shirer had a breakthrough. She originally had no intention of following the doctor...
