We live for amazing hair moments and Uzo Aduba just delivered. Yesterday (October 26), the Emmy Award-winning actress stopped us dead in our tracks with her latest Instagram update.

Sporting a gorgeous afro adorned in blue hair pins, Aduba used this truly breathtaking beauty moment to show her support for presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Captioning the post, “Team Blue. #imwithher,” Aduba’s mane moment is definitely one of the more unique campaigning statements we’ve witnessed this election season.

And as of late, she’s upped the ante by hitting the ground in North Carolina, where she’s encouraging men and women to hit the polls. 

When your family that's been supporting you since Day One of dreaming, comes out to show their support for early voting in North Carolina! I love you guys. So much and am forever grateful to have you in my life. #family #cousins #NCVotesEarly #imwithher

It’s also worth noting the resurgence of hair accessories on and off the runways. Since the debut of A Seat At The Table, where Solange is seen wearing multicolored hair clips on her cover art, we’ve seen even more celebs nail the reoccurring trend. 

Aduba’s adorned afro is a major switch up from the uniform bantu knots worn by her character “Crazy Eyes” in Orange is the New Black and we’re officially obsessed!
