#ActingWhileBlack Makeup & Hair in one bag. The other bags are filled with clothes because some wardrobe stylists don’t know that cute clothes exist in sizes larger than size 10. “Here try on this mumu, I know it’s a little big, we’ll just belt it!” #ActingWhileBlackAndChubby

Those of us responding to this feed are sharing our unique experiences #ActingWhileBlack. No one is dying. We have all adapted. Life goes on. ❤️ I just always think it’s important to pull back the curtain so you guys know what the real is. This mess is the real!

If they don’t have the budget to hire a black hairstylist for me, or won’t, I just get the director to agree that my character should have box braids or senegalese twist.

I just dont get it. Why not hire black stylists in the 1st place? They can work with ANY type of hair. We naturally come in all lengths and textures then add in the fact that we deal with super str8 hair by way of weaves 🤷‍♀️
