tyra-banks-real-hair

Tyra Banks has kept us anticipating her natural hair debut for weeks now.  There was even much speculation that she was trying to pass off some of the wigs she was sporting during the period before the big reveal, as her own hair.  But the supermodel turned talk show host indeed held true to her promise and delivered this twitpic as a precursor to her show airing today, in which she appears au natural from the neck up.

I must say Tyra, this is a big step in the right direction.  Wigs are nice, as are weaves and all other types of extensions, but there is nothing quite like the real thing, is there?

Check out a clip from the upcoming Tyra Show:

    Hey Tyra is beautiful anyway. That would be the woman I would marry. I try to see her when I can when she’s on her show or what ever she’s on. I just like her personality, because I know if we were on a date she will make me laugh alot beause she will keep it real. Shes a role model, and you can’t hate on that.

    What a difference 8yrs makes…

    when I used to volunteer for the fashion shows in bryant park.. she was MEGA-BALD!!!

    I remember seeing her and the volunteers thought’ whose this skinny crackhead, doing here’ … she had big boobs, light eyes.. and like barely 2inches of hair. The hairdresser, could barely cornrow it for a weave, and had to glue the edges in. But good for you Tyra… grew you some hair.

    THIS IS NOT HER REAL HAIR THAT IS A TEMPORARY; I MEAN A PERM AS Y’ALL CALL IT. IT HAS TO BE TOUCHED UP SO IT IS REALLY A TEMPORARY. REAL HAIR IS REAL HAIR.

    If Tyra wanted to show her real hair then she should of jut kept it REAL and not put a relaxer on it! She didnt want to show the world her true nappy roots. Tryna say she just stepped out the shower.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DaintyJen/ DaintyJen

    whats the point? women are still going to use weave, perms, hot combs and etc…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DaintyJen/ DaintyJen

    cant wait to get me a wig cause it sure is annoying taking care of black hair with no relaxer in it…and i dont look right in braids….damn!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/daillesttexasma/ daillesttexasma

    There is nothing wrong with a relaxer ..it makes it easier for people with real coarse hair to be able to do it…her hair looks nice

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SEARCH09/ SEARCH09

    forehead look’n like a bee done stung the hell out of it.WOW!!her and Rihanna sort of look alike.but as the hair thing goes.I know women including myself who have what might be considered nice hair but it isn’t as full as we want it and even we add weave here and there depending on the occasion.women and some gay men of all colors and ethnicities experiment with weave, wigs,clip ons, and different pieces regardless of how our natural hair is.it doesnt seem like all these different types of hair extensions are going anywhere any time soon.so for those who have a problem with it.turn the other cheek and keep it move’n.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Infamous-Gorjus/ Infamous-Gorjus

    Why is her hair wet on the day she happens to rock her real hair? Why show it if she isn’t going to show it dry and styled? That broad tries to hard to get attention!!! U can see right through that personality. Who really cares anyway about her do? It’s just something else she wanted to try and “show off”, and toot her own horn about, but she should have rocked another wig that day!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Motown_Lovely1/ Motown_Lovely1

    Based on some of the comments I’ve read it’s obvious that many of you are very slow. The purpose of Tyra showing her real hair was to one, confirm that she indeed has hair and to show you how to grow and maintain healthy hair. No there is nothing wrong with wigs, weaves, hair coloring, or relaxing; however doing to much at once causes the breakage and damage. “Infamous-Gorjus” I guess you didn’t see the show. Her stylist was there and he did blow dry and style Tyra’s hair. Tyra’s hair is very thick and healthy.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/yeswecan53/ yeswecan53

    That is not Tyra length. She added hair to the back. Check out how she shows it. I add hair only to the back occasionally.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sylkiifeather/ sylkiifeather

    ok, i like tyra for some odd reason. but i have a question… doesnt her hair wet in the picture at the top of the page look way longer than her hair wet in the video? or maybe its just me…idk

    Is the name-calling necessary?

    This woman makes the biggest deal out of the simplest things. 1) having her boobs squeezed to prove they’re hers 2)asking to squeeze Janet Jackson’s butt 3) asking Obama if she and her mom can have a pajama party at the white house 4) having a bunch of photos of her being the first lady instead of Michelle Obama alongside a mock Barack Obama… and now this silly hair thing. Showing her real hair and having a bunch of people rubbing in it to prove it’s hers. Sherri Shepherd did a similar thing on the View where she took her wig off to show her hair was “real” and its “long” too… as thin as it may appear. Then you got Oprah catching a mean neck hook tirade about that hair she wears on her show is 100% all hers. D*mn, stop all this obsessive nick picking with yourselves black women??

    Black women are constantly trying to prove themselves to society like they care either way, “See how long my hair really is?” “My sister’s cousin’s lighter than you.” “I’m not Black, I’m part Cherokee, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Cuban and Scandanavian.” All this adds up to one common message that the world: That we are ashamed of who we are and our insecure of what we look like. I mean really, Is the world is going to treat you any better if you show what your hair really look like underneath a weave, or if you bleach yourself lke Rhianna or Lil Kim, or run down a long list of ethnicities you might or might not be. Is that really going to make the life you live any different? Will you get any more respect than you did before? Or, would you risk having these people walk away from you, laughing at you as soon as your back is turned about how ridiculous you sound? I’m just being real, like me or hate me for saying it. It’s the truth.

    Exactly what is there to try and prove to non Black people? We’re still susceptible to racism, we’re still gonna have those “N” word incidents, we’re still gonna fall victim of discrimination. All that showing how long a weave or braid can grow one’s hair, peeling skin, and shaving off the size of one’s nose won’t save us from any of it.

    Throw a weave or some braids in your hair for a long period of time and it will grow, because the hair is not being disturbed by frequent pulling and combing. The length of time you have the braids the longer your hair will grow. The downside to it is that the braid will make your hair weak. Growing your hair through weaves or braids can be accomplished by any African American woman regardless of your ethnic background.

    to the haters… tyra has worked hard and made a name for herself.. i mean s**t she hasn’t done anything like sleep with 100 athletes, or marry some rapper or have babies with people just because babies are cute. she actually looks good, no make up.. she looks better without all the slop on her face..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/blkpuddn/ blkpuddn

    SHE LOOKS GOOD & HER HAIR LOOKS FINE. SHE’S ALWAYS HAD A LARGER FOREHEAD…SO WHAT! HER HAIR IS LONGER & FULLER THAN MOST BLK WOMAN!!! AS FAR AS GOING THE EXTRA MILE TO PROVE SUMTHN ABOUT HERSELF…SHE WOULD’NT BE DOING THAT IF SUM PPL DID’NT MAKE HER FEEL AS IF SHE HAS TO BY PRINTING FALSE STORIES ABOUT HER, GOSSIPING ABOUT HER, ETC. I WISH SHE WOULD IGNORE THE HATERS & JUST BE HERSELF!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mz_cynth71/ mz_cynth71

    Why why, why can’t people just get some business of their own && mind it???? You go Tyra wear your weave/wigs what ever you please you still look great!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/cherronw/ cherronw

    Tyra thinks way too much about herself. I don’t care if she wears a wig, but can it at least look good? Some of them just don’t make the grade and I don’t know why she keeps picking ash blonde. Don’t even get me started on her

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DAREALRECKLESS/ DAREALRECKLESS

    lmao@ the weave wearing heffers getting mad

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/playaa_2000/ playaa_2000

    She’s naturally beautiful. She really don’t need a lot of makeup period. I’d hit it! :)

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SouthernRose/ SouthernRose

    I don’t think it really matters what a woman chooses to do with her hair it’s her decision if it hers or somebody elses her choice we been creating beauty products for ourselves for years so if she chooses braids, weaves, perms, dreads, or natural her decision. As long as you feel good in it who cares.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/italianmami37/ italianmami37

    lmfao playa_2000 and darelreckless! i love it!

    lmao @ DAREALRECKLESS.. yes they salty at tyra cause she got hair… lol

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/I_Stay_True_2Me/ I_Stay_True_2Me

    Nice, she has hang time foreal but…O…kay so it’s her natural hair? Why is it such a big deal? I mean I know she got bad comments from viewers who saw her show “about good hair”, but who cares shes in the entertainment business they wear alot of make-up and wigs,weaves, and pieces. But okay whateva I like it real hair or not!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sylkiifeather/ sylkiifeather

    i personally think she looks better with her real hair rather than that weave…sometimes the weave is too much.

    but i also agree with arozendaghetto

    if she is making such a big deal about her real hair being long…why doesnt she just wear it that way. if not, then why show it off on her show in the first place? who knows….but its in a celebrity’s job description to crave attention for the dumbest things…so i cant even get mad at her for doing her job lol. how beautiful does she look by the way in that top pic above (with her real hair)….love tyra…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ORANGERESIDUE/ ORANGERESIDUE

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Ari1988/ Ari1988

    Wow usually it’s hard to grow hair that long using perms. Gon head Tyra. Though she did forget to mention that aspect.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Ari1988/ Ari1988

    Oh yeah and that hair dresser hella sabotaged her hair. Need to cut off the ends to make her hair healthy, please. People need to know that trimming your hair is worse than breakage. It’s like double time.You trimming your hair is like breakage accept twice or three times as much. Split ends do nice climb all the way up the shaft they split on a tangent.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/XoticJade/ XoticJade

    Yeah, its real. . .real thin. && Somebody need to get them dead ends.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mizz214/ mizz214

    She’s gorgeous…so why all the make up all the time? She could definitely go without it. I don’t know…I’ve just always been a firm believer in make up is for the ugly. Sorry if that offends anyone! But if you’re pretty without it, why waste your money?
