Sanaa Lathan’s Hair Has Grown Significantly Since Shaving It Off Three Years Ago — Find Out Why
Embracing her own shorter hair, surprisingly, was celebrated when Lathan moved on to other projects. When she worked on Showtime’s The Affair, she was “shocked” to find that everyone was for her decision to sport her natural hair.
“I brought a wig, like a beautiful, long, silky wig. My hair was newly really short. It wasn’t bald, but it was the lowest it could be. And I knew in my mind, ‘You know, this character could be either of these women. But, the bolder choice is my own hair.’ I just needed a little bit of reassurance,” she said.
