Gabrielle Union Thinks Her New Curly Updo Is a 10, and We Couldn’t Agree More — See Photos

What better way to start your week than with a new gorgeous hairstyle from Gabrielle Union? The Being Mary Jane star knows we live for each and every new hair moment she shares on the ‘gram — and she’s 100 percent right because we can’t stop admiring the curly updo with which she ended January.

On Monday, January 30, Union appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Show with her ringlets piled on her head to chat with Hudson about a range of topics, including Union’s 50th birthday trip to several African countries in October 2022 and that one time she got to party with Prince. She posted a short behind-the-scenes video on Instagram on the same day in which you can see her staring at herself in the mirror and admiring her good looks from a few different angles. 

Because her back is to the camera, we got a view of this textured hairstyle from the front and back. From the back, you can see that her curls were slicked up into what looked like a messy half-bun. The rest of those spirals were styled and presumably pinned down to fall towards her face, which created a faux curly side bang. This textured look had the perfect amount of mess, including a tendril of hair that was left out of the style right by her ear, which makes it look so effortless.
