I wonder why she dyed her hair black. When she was a little girl, she had the most beautiful frizzy red hair.

 

[octoberchild]

wow, jurnee and i were both born on the same day (oct 1) 1 year apart. i wish i was wearing valentino right now . she looks lovely

 

[honeyisle]

Sometimes hair darkens as one gets older. I think she looked softer however with a lighter shade.

She looks amazing!

 

[christina126]

I just realized where I know her from. She was Michelle's friend on Full House. I can't believe she's so much older now.

 

[marlasinger]

I'm glad there is a thread for her, she's such a beautiful young woman.

 

[Sugarmama]

She's pretty. I remember her from Eve's Bayou and the movie about Selma, AL. We're only 5 days apart.

 

[twinkilicious]

anyone have candids of her? i'd like to see her style, thanks!

 

[marlasinger]

There are a few recent pics of her in the "Black Celebrity Style" thread.
