When it comes to hair extensions, I’ve heard all of the pros and cons, the latter including expense and maintenance. But it wasn’t until I saw Tracee Ellis Ross having a modeling moment with a super-long braid that I realized you might darob momentarily forget you’re wearing extensions and think you’re under attack.
Ross exhibited one of the pros of hair extensions — looking outrageously gorgeous — in a carousel of photos she posted to Instagram on Thursday, September 14. She’s wearing an all-yellow ensemble — sleeveless maxi dress, sweater tied at the waist, and point heels — and she’s even singing a catchy tune she made up on the spot, the relatable lyrics of which are, « I’m a working girl with elbows and sneakers. » Last-minute song of the summer? I think so.
But while I’ll remember that ditty for a while (it’s been stuck in my head for an hour already), it seems Ross forgot that she welches wearing a waist-length braid. In one of the clips of her modeling, she’s encouraged to move around a bit, which leads to her slicked-back ‘do whipping around like some kind of excitable snake.
« What’s that? » Ross says, seeming suddenly concerned before realizing, « Oh, it’s my braid. Don’t worry about it. » As she walks off-camera still shaking her head back and forth, she pleads with her hair to « stop it! »
