Michelle Obama’s Hair is Closely Watched

Like anyone, Michelle Obama has good hair days and bad hair days. Her hair’s been seen pressed and shiny, she’s had weaves and it appears that she often has hair extensions added to her hair. She’s worn it every way but curly and every strand is being scrutinized – not just by black women, but by the media.

Magazine and newspaper articles have been written about her hair. Slide shows run on blogs and mainstream media websites. Talk show hosts interview her hairdresser.

Writing in the online magazine Salon, Erin Aubry Kaplan, asks: “… A reality check: in this alleged new era of racial enlightenment, how would we see Michelle if she switched to braids, twists, curls or dreads, if she looked more like the black person she is?”

Given Mrs O’s demanding schedule, we recommend that she have her stylist use Pro10 Hair Extensions made with Ultima Protein Hair. It’s got all of the good qualities of human hair, and none of the bad. It won’t frizz, droop, or lose its set. And because it comes in so many colors, lengths, and textures, she can chair her hairstyle as often as she changes her outfits.

Michelle Obama’s Hairstyles Closely Watched by African-American Women

African-American hair, in all it’s glory and struggle, has come to the White House. The beautiful new First Lady Michelle Obama’s hair has long been subject of blog discussion. After all, when you’re in the public eye every minute of every day, you just can’t have a bad hair day!

Mrs. O’s has tried out a variety of styles, many of which appear to involve weaves and extensions, and she looks more gorgeous all the time. We love Mrs O’s confidence and style – and her demonstration that fashion should be fun.

It will be interesting to see whether the lovely First Lady’s hair ever goes more natural look as she gets more comfortable in her public role.

“Hair is so damn political for us,” said a commenter on The Black Snob’s Michelle Obama Hair Project.

Now, Johnny Wright, long-time hairstylist to first lady, is going to host his own reality TV makeover show, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Will locks, twists, braids, extensions, and weaves be featured? We bet they will!
