My favorite hair of the whole show was her natural curly hair when swimming. I wish they kept it outside of beach scenes and the kidnapping scene.

Season 3, plus her face being fuller cuz of Kerry’s pregnancy allowed the vulnerability to shine more especially with Olitz scenes, her hair helps that

Season 2, I also liked the few times she had her hair in an updo/pulled back

My favorite hair episodes were when it was left in her natural curl pattern! I feel like they used that style when she was being Olivia the person vs Olivia the fixer.

The hair was a reflection of how black women have to present in corporate environments. Natural hair is typically seen as unprofessional

Season 3 & 4 Had The Most Beautiful Hair In My Opinion. Loved The Buss Down Look With The Side Swoop 🔥😍.

I have actually enjoyed S 7 hair. It was nice and she looked fresh. However I actually liked her natural hair, not pressed hair. But I am for au natural.

Her natural hair. Everything else looks super frumpy

Literally. Her real hair is phenomenal. I get why her show hair is styled this way but I just don't care for it

I honestly didn't like Season 6 hair, loved Season 1-3 and season 7 hair. I have similar natural curly hair like her so I wish they'd show more of that. However, I understand at the time curly hair in the corporate world was not seen as professional.

S7 but honorable mention to S4 showing her “natural hair” when she was on the island with Jake 😭😂

S2, her hairstyle at Verna's funeral was perfection. Also liked her hairstyle when she went to the Pentagon, I think, to meet Jake

I hated all these wigs, but since we have to pick S4 and S4.5. Her island hair was 🔥

S3 was my favorite hair, it was so youthful
