Best known for her lead roles in the television series Girlfriends and ABC’s comedy series Black-ish, the multi-award-winning actress talks about being the full-time beauty founder and CEO behind Pattern Beauty, a haircare brand that celebrates, empowers and embraces curly, coily and tight-textured hair types. Tracee explains why Pattern isn’t just another celebrity beauty line, and why the brand took 10 years to create.
Tracee Ellis Ross is also the executive producer and narrator of the upcoming six-part docuseries, THE HAIR TALES, debuting on Oprah Winfrey Network and Hulu October 22nd, 2022.
