Tami Roman’s Latest Style Switch-Up Has Fans Wrapped Around Her Finger

Tami Roman briefly switched up her look for her role in BET’s “The Family Business” and a photo shoot where she became a redhead. But between jobs, she’s happy to rock her shorter hair and the look has fans applauding her.

“GM Atlanta💋,” Roman captioned a Tuesday, Dec. 5 selfie. She also detailed who was responsible for her glammed up appearance including an outfit styled by UDI, makeup by Christopher Dixon and, of course, hair by Greg Gilmore.

Fans flocked to Roman’s hairstyle, which she first had cut in the summer to massive fanfare.

“@tamiroman girl I’m loving that hairstyle!! ❤️ Trying to get there!”

“Beautiful pic! Hair sweet!💕😍”

“Love the hair u should model.”

“Omg! I love your hair! You look so go young! I am just a fan.😂”

“I love💕 your hair🙌”

But it’s not just her hair that has fans fawning over her. They also praised how beat her face is and her impeccable style.

“I @tamiroman love this look👀 and I loved your new show 🔥🔥🔥”

“Best pic of you I have seen in a while.. face look full.”

“Always killing it Tami. Love your style.”

“@tamiroman. Yes maam🙌🙌🙌🙌 u did that # killa looks #nailed it💓💓💓😍😍😍”

“Looove that jacket. You look maaarvelous dahling😀😀.”

“Flawless HUNNI.”

“If your pretty and you know it clap your hands… @tamiroman you look so pretty success looks good on you.”

Roman’s comments section shows one of the first times in a while that fans have not zeroed in on her weight loss. Over the summer, Roman was forced to defend herself against criticism over her increasingly gaunt appearance.

“I didn’t lose weight, I lost my willingness to die. DIABETES IS NO JOKE!” she wrote on Instagram in June. “I detox, suppress my appetite and make better food choices. So enjoy yourself laughing, leaving negative comments & calling me a ‘crackhead’…but I have two beautiful daughters and I’m gon’ live for them by ANY means necessary. 💯”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
