Black hair appreciation on IWTV

AMC's Interview With The Vampire does such a great job showcasing the beauty and versatility of black hair. These are some a few of my favourite black hair appreciation moments on the show:

Louis' many hairstyles throughout the decades, inspired by the real hairstyles black men wore during those time periods.

Bonus points for them styling Jacob's real hair instead of using cheap looking wigs like some other tv-shows do.

Mama Du Lac's fro and Grace's updo at her wedding.

Claudia putting a headscarf in her hair before bed. I also love the use of hair – her transitioning from cute plaits to sophisticated updos, to show that she has matured from a little girl into a young woman.

An honourable mention also goes to Lestat playing with Louis' hair during an intimate moment, something that we rarely get to see on screen.
