“We are proudly born with hair that grows as strong as a storm, and doesn’t conform to a beauty norm that isn’t our own," the narrator of the ad says. “So many wrong things are said about how it grows from our head, but to think that beauty is only sleek or wavy is crazy.”

The ad was released in March and made waves before when it aired during Empire.
