Seeing Regina King on my screen is always a treat, but when she sports a hairstyle like her current one, I have to take a moment to thank the glam gods. On August 14, the actress was seen in SoHo, presumably making her rounds as she promotes her new wine brand, MianU, which honors her late son, Ian Alexander Jr. For the occasion, she wore a colorful, form-fitting dress, white heels, and a matching Louis Vuitton bag. Still, her hair was exactly what I needed it to be and more, and I am considering getting real traditional cornrows for the first time in years.
King’s hair was nothing short of a work of art. It was braided down into a low ponytail, before being tucked into a bun—an elegant, low-maintenance version of the timeless style. Of course, she added her personal flair to the look by incorporating braided kiss curls and baby hairs. Finally, the deep side part she chose gave the hairstyle the appearance of side bangs. The star finished the look with a smokey eye, satin-matte complexion makeup, and a soft touch of color on the lips and cheeks.
