Steel Magnolias’ starlet Jill Scott graces the October issue of ESSENCE. She looks radiant with her natural cropped cut and dishes with readers about life after 40 and why hair is simply just an accessory.
“This is the simplest form of myself. I look in the mirror and it’s like, ‘Hey, there you go. What’s up, girl?’ For me, hair is an accoutrement. Hair is jewelry. It’s an accessory. Tomorrow I may want a wig down to my butt and I’m gonna rock it, and the next day I may want a big Afro and I’m gonna rock that too…”–Jill Scott
