Including you, ..... (You know who you are) #TALKinPINk #ShalitaGrant #WokeThotism Follow Shalita Grant @ShalitaGrant on IG Shalita Grant was inspired to launch haircare line after exiting her role as Sonja Percy on 'NCIS.' Following her exit from the series, Shalita has gone on to many projects from You to the award winning Abbott Elementary. During this time, she decided to launch her own line of natural products called Four Naturals. "For Black women, the way our hair is policed is that we're told it's unprofessional in its natural state," she said in an interview with Vulture in July 2020. "With NCIS, it wasn't just that the people didn't know how to do my hair. The cosmetology board teaches that hair is hair, which essentially erases Black and Asian hair, because there are differences." "It was all because, in their minds, a love interest doesn't look like that," she told the outlet. "A love interest has straight hair." She added, "It's all built around those assumptions, and I suffered because of that." She is on the path to helping to bring the best of what grows naturlaly out of our heads to the forefront
