Photographed by Patrick Demarchelier and styled by Alex White, Lupita is seeing in the photos wearing braids and even an Afro. She praises her hair stylist Vernon François for helping her maintain her natural hair and giving her regimens that include using his own line of hair products.

When asked about her go to hair products she said: “I cannot live without his Pure-Fro Moisture Spray ($26), it adds moisture to my hair, which loosens the curl or his Scalp Nourishment Braids and Locs Spray ($24). He also has this Mist-Nourishing Water ($18). One thing I’ve learned was the acronym LOC, and that’s basically the rule for how to treat my hair: liquid, oil, and then cream. It’s the idea that you wet your hair first, then you add oil so that it can trap the moisture in, then you put a moisturizer or a cream over it. And also, Shea butter, natural Shea butter — no perfumes, no bleaches — which doesn’t smell great at all, but it does wonders to my hair”.
