LIVE from the Dear Media Studio in LA, it’s Tracee Ellis Ross! Multi-award-winning actress, producer, beauty CEO, comedienne, fashion guru and overall good human – we’re talking hair, nostalgia and the joy of making your own lunch!
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. In this episode, Tracee explains why it was important to shine a light on women, beauty and identity through the distinctive lens of Black hair. Featuring Issa Rae, Chloe Bailey and more famous faces, Tracee takes us behind-the-scenes, revealing what it was like to interview Oprah Winfrey.
Plus, we get the details on Tracee’s next project, a 10-episode podcast series titled I Am America, produced in partnership with Dear Media.
