Helen's hair...what did you think?

I know it's supposed to illustrate the change in her, but I just hated her new hair! The curls weren't too bad, but she really needed to keep the lighter color!

Anyone?

I definitely liked the "new" Helen :-) Not to be a cliche, but I felt as if the weave {not knocking extensions} was a facade and her wearing her hair more natural with the curls was who she really was. They did the same thing with Sanaa Lathan in "Something New". To me it represents freedom, a way back to something carefree:-)

I thought it looked adorable and better than wig or weave or whatever she had before. But, Kimberly's such a doll, she could wear a pink wig and still look pretty.

I was amazed to find it was the same Kimberly from “Set It Off”. What a change in character!

Don't give Nicki Minaj any ideas.

I also liked her better with the curls. More natural, softer, and made her look younger. Very fitting for a new start.

She was gorgeous whatever she did. I like them both.
