This summer, celebrities are letting their natural hair do its thing. With ninety-degree temperatures that revert styled strands to their original texture within moments of stepping a foot out of the door, we don’t blame them. Even with their glam teams at their beck and call, they’ve ditched their wigs and extensions this season to let their curls have a moment in the spotlight. All-in-all, we love their natural locs.

Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Kenya Moore uploaded a photo of her lush long locs to Instagram earlier this week, and CTRL singer SZA wowed us with an astonishing natural textured afro. Closing out the week of stunning natural hair moments is actress Kerry Washington, who dazzled us with her curls in a recent Instagram post.

While we love to see the actress in face-framing pixie cuts and shoulder-grazing bobs, we’re captivated by her curls. Washington’s hairstylist, Takisha Sturdivant-Drew, is also enamored by her cool coils.

In a recent interview with InStyle Magazine, the new mom shared that having a little girl has opened her up to her sparkle. And indeed, the star is shinning in her sequin hair accessories.  

“I think having a little girl who’s so drawn to pink and sparkle has sort of opened me up to my inner pink and sparkle,” said Washington.
