What the heck did she do to her hair!!!


No offense to the actress who plays the younger Charlotte,but she looks like an over the top Black Pippi Longstocking. It also looks like she put starch in her hair. Her hair could have a story by itself.

You've never seen an afro?

Not on Charlotte, but on the actress in the interview. Her pigtails or braids are out there. But to each their own.

OK, I see the confusion. The actress is Arsema Thomas and she's playing the younger Lady Danbury - not Charlotte.

It's African threading:

Yeah, she does look like Pippi Longstocking. It would've been hard for me to keep a straight face if I were in the same room with her.

Thanks for the link. Her hair did like that.

You're welcome. I remembered an African woman having her hair threaded on a YouTube video a few months ago. This actress grew up there.

I see elaborate hairstyles are her thing:

Afros were very popular among the the black members of the18th century British royal family.

Based on all the afro wigs I'm seeing in the previews, I'd say she got stuck in the dryer over and over again, and when she got out, her hair went POOF!
