Totally shocked by @mofajang! It colored my hair in such a fun way. Since i have really dark hair, i was impressed. But even more shocking, it actually has excellent hold—strong like a gel but not heavy. I’ve spent a ton of money on pomades, wax’s, and clays over the years and have to constantly reinforce my style with hairspray. I didn’t have to even run a straightener though my hair or anything to style my hair with this product. It kind of rubs of on my hand if I scratch my head, but besides that, I’m super stoked with my new little hair toy! PLUS I’m no longer iffy about going gray! 😊 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #actor#actorslife#actress#androgynous#lgbtq#girlswholikegirls#girlswhokissgirls#losangeles#lalife#picoftheday#ootd#love#fun#igers#art#nolimits#hair#girlpower

O’Brian will play Georgia (aka George) St. Clair, a young hero of the Newpocalypse. Just a college Freshman eight years ago as the Zombie Apocalypse began, she helped lead a group of her fellow students and teachers to NewMerica where she is now a political leader as survivors try to form a new country and learn to deal with a new kind of Zombie.

Epic day on the river with my homies on the greatest float ever. Thanks @natashashallbetter for my ducky! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #actor#actorslife#actress#androgynous#lgbtq#girlswholikegirls#girlswhokissgirls#losangeles#lalife#picoftheday#ootd#love#fun#igers#art#nolimits#hair#girlpower
