Critic Reviews:
If you’ve never thought to correlate hair and horror, congratulations, you just admitted your privilege. It’s gift usually only afforded to other races.
– Essence
Bad Hair, while powerful in its first half exploring Anna and her past, falters as it tries to understand Black women as a collective.
With a keen sense of time and place, Simien perfectly captures the trends of the late 80s fashion and music accentuating the absurd need to conform..In the end, though, all the en-pointe nuances in the world can’t salvage a weighty script.
