Tracee Ellis Ross and Michelle Obama’s Braided Protective Hairstyles Exude Black Girl Magic

And it smells like shea butter and excellence.

Tracee Ellis Ross and Michelle Obama rocking protective hairstyles together is Black girl magic personified.

Tracee’s scalp-tight box braided ponytail effortlessly complemented the former First Lady’s lived-in goddess braids. The former FLOTUS has spoken out previously about her choice to put the White House and former President Barack Obama‘s agenda before sparking a conversation about Black women wearing natural hairstyles in the Oval Office. Since then, the joy that has been ignited in Black and Brown women and those alike seeing her confidently rock braids is not lost upon the masses. Tracee Ellis Ross has always been a champion in her own right for protective and natural styles due to her mom the iconic Diana Ross leading the charge for the textured hair girlies.

On the fashion side of things, there’s no question that Mrs. Obama and Tracee Ellis Ross brought the heat as per usual — and we didn’t expect anything less. Speaking for everyone in Tracee’s comment section, we need to see more of this good magic. Take a closer look ahead.
